After being at home in Maryland for three months over the summer, I was able to reflect on how much I love Greenville. Thinking about how much I love Greenville made me realize all of the things about it that were different than they are in Maryland. This is a list of the things I missed most in Greenville, North Carolina.

1) Friends

A lot of my friends did go home for the summer, but I met them in Greenville, so I associate them with Greenville.

2) Sup Dogs

Nothing can compare to the vibe at Sup Dogs, not to mention the tater tots.

3) The school spirit

Just about everyone in Greenville loves ECU and it is very evident in the way the community is.

4) The football games

Although the football games have not started yet, I am so excited for the first one in Pirate Nation.

5) The South

Being from Maryland doesn't really put me in the south, but in Greenville, it does. The southern hospitality is always there, as well as the things the south is known for, like sweet tea, Bojangles, Publix and more.

Now that I'm back in Greenville, it is is great to have all of these things, and it makes me realize how much I missed them and how lucky we are to have them.

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.
