If you don’t follow SEC football or even football at all, then you might not understand all the great things that follow in this article. This current season for the University of Georgia has been a whirlwind of fantastic athletic feats.

From dominating in all games with the exception of one to having a true freshman quarterback become a football star in the blink of an eye, you can say that this has been UGA’s dominating year on and off the field.

At the start, Georgia’s close win against Notre Dame set the tone for the entire season. Having an amazing experience at the game, it proved that this year, Georgia was going to be giving their opponents a run for their money.

Each game the players dominated from left to right, touchdown after touchdown all from the direction of Coach Kirby Smart leading them to victory each game with his enthusiastic movements.

It almost became a game to me how often I would count during a game when the sole task of another staff member for Georgia was to hold Smart’s belt just so he wouldn’t be given a penalty for being on the field, he was that passionate.

Then, like a blessing in disguise, Jake Fromm started as quarterback after the previous quarterback was injured. Little did we know that he would be the answer to all our prayers. With immense strength and accuracy, and fast feet when he needed them, he gained touchdown after touchdown without fail.

Not only did UGA have Fromm, we had the skill of Georgia’s prized possessions, seniors Nick Chubb and Sony Michel who have absolutely dominated in yards. With the dream team combined and working like a well-fueled machine, there wasn’t a doubt that Georgia would be anything but a force to be reckoned with.

And now, after destroying Auburn’s football team at the SEC Championship in Atlanta, UGA is headed to the Rose Bowl in Pasadena, California at the start of the new year where hopefully they can continue their pace and drive against Oklahoma. Dawg fans have never been more excited, especially since the last time the Dawgs were there was 75 years ago.

Although their athletics continue to be the powerhouse and forefront of the university, Georgia has other prideful moments that cannot be overlooked. The 2018 early-action incoming freshman class will be bringing record academic highs to the university, with the GPA average of 4.11 and the average SAT score of 1390.

The University of Georgia undoubtedly has a strong and bright future waiting for it. Their athletics and academics continue to rise as well the classic Athenian culture that the college town provides, truly making life great for students and fans alike. All I can say for the coming game (hopefully games) and for the future is, GO DAWGS AND SIC ‘EM!

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.

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

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.
