Dear Pennsylvania Weather, Get It Together

STOP.

Dear Pennsylvania Weather, Get It Together
@rooney_the_schneagle

Dear weather,

Please stop acting out of season. We're are honestly tired of this. On the western side of the state, we had one day of 50 degree weather and then got slammed with snow for the first and second days of spring. We do not appreciate this.

The eastern side of the state just got hit so hard that schools let out early. This is supposed to be spring. I want to wear all of my cute clothes, not go stomping through the slushy streets in my puffer coat that makes me look like a giant marshmallow. We are honestly sick of this.

A few weeks ago, we had really nice weather, and that was great.

A few days it was warm enough to go outside without a heavy coat on. I would really appreciate going back to that sort of weather. As a college student, I cannot do anything without leaving my dorm room, so having the weather nice enough that I won't break my neck when I step outside really helps.

It's hard enough lugging all of my books around. I really don't need the extra challenge of three inches of slush on the sidewalks because it is impossible for my campus to keep the sidewalks clear when it is snowing so hard.

What would be desperately appreciated would be a few weeks of mild weather.

Rain is understandable.

It is spring, after all. Give us some time to start planting flowers. Let the sun shine often. It would be nice if we could keep those biting winds down to a minimum. Then, we could work our way up to some nice 70 degree days in maybe two or three weeks. We could really use that.

The winter blues are really bogging us down.

It's hard enough that all of us college students just got through midterms, but the end of the semester is coming up fast, and that means finals and term papers, so this Seasonal Affective Disorder isn't going to be working for us anymore.

Thanks,

Everyone who lives in Pennsylvania

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
