A week in the sun, losing money, confidence, and sanity.

Why Spring Break Sucks

Spring break is the only vacation that you don’t go home to mom’s cooking, now why would you like that?

It’s also the only break that you spend with people you see on a daily basis, so you feel obliged to actually look good in a bathing suit.

Furthermore, you spend copious amounts of money on freaking nothing. At least during Christmas you get to see the joy on people’s faces when they open the presents you bought.

No girl will ever lie to you and say they want to shave every single day for a week, or at all ever.

The planet pretends to be warm and sunny for a while because you have most likely traveled south for your destination, only to go right back to naked trees as opposed to near naked girls in a couple days.

It’s the only break that you’re kind of expected to get out of bed during, even if it’s just to fall asleep by a pool… it’s still not your bed.

Regardless of how bad your sunburn is, people will still want you to go to the beach.

Most of the food you consume will probably come from a beach shack that only sells wings and burgers, pretty much just making your entire spring break diet a waste of time.

Bathing suits are getting smaller and smaller as the minutes pass, whether or not you want to show the entirety of your butt.

Even though everyone says don’t use Sun In, you probably met one girl with perfect hair that recommended it so you will try it and you will not be pleased.

Sunglasses tans are really cute.

Spring break is your university’s way of dangling summer in your face before they push you into the fiery hell pit that is exam week.

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.
