9 Feelings of Being in an A Cappella Group

1. When you get a new song and it doesn't go so well

Sometimes even the best masterpieces start out with no hope. Remember that ICCA champs don't just wake up awesome.

2. When you nail the big solo

You got your shining moment, you hit the notes, and you wowed the crowd! You don't even need those back-up dancers.

3. When you have a performance over the weekend and have to take it easy

When you have a Saturday performance it usually means a long day of preparation, travel, and practice. Don't go too crazy on Friday night because it could hurt your performance and the rest of your group won't like that.

4. When you finish doing the dance for the 100th time and don't feel so good

Dancing always takes it out of you, especially when its getting late in rehearsal. I'm a singer, I didn't sign up for this!

5. When you try to intimidate the competition


A Cappella may not be the most intense activity out there, but it doesn't mean groups don't want to take home the gold!

6. When you get really into that one song

Hey, sometimes a run-through or performance goes so well that you go a little too far. Don't worry because it happens to everyone. Just remember that your mom is probably watching.

7. When bae is in the same group as you


If you're lucky, you and your significant other are in the same group and can sing your hearts out together. If not, sometimes you end up meeting that special someone - it's inevitable.

8. When you know how awesome your group is


Let's face it, after the beginning stages, your group finally reaches their full potential and becomes a bad-ass group of nerds.

9. When you realize your group is your family


Every a cappella group is much more than just a group or a club–they're a family. Having people who all love the same thing at the end of the day is all you really could ask for.

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.
