5 Reason's Why You Should SIgn Up For RebelTHON

RebelTHON. You might ask yourself what this is. Well RebelTHON is a 12 hour dance marathon we have here at Ole Miss. There being over 150 other dance marathon's across the country. It starts at 3pm on February 18th and ends at 3am on February 19th. We have fundraisers and do events throughout the year to lead up to RebelTHON. All the money we raise goes to our Miracle Network Hospital, Blair E. Batson in Jackson, Mississippi. What we do is we dance for those who can't; the kids.

5. It's a fun way to spend your night

4. Everyone's doing it, duh.

I don't know why you wouldn't want to tbh.

3. Get yo workout in!!

I've never met someone who is completely in love with going to the gym. But hey you can your workout in and it's FUN. No need to visit the gym :)

2. It's the best weekend of the year


There are VERY few weekends I just look forward to every year but this is one of them. RebelTHON is so much fun and the night never gets boring.

1. For The Kids!!!

We are dancing for these adorable kids at Batson Hospital because they sadly cant. We dance to honor the families of the kids, their doctors and nurses.

They're these and so many other reason's to why you should sign up for RebelTHON. I went last year and I was worried it was going to be boring but man was I completely wrong!!! I had the most fun that night then I had in a long time.

With RebelTHON you know you're doing something good and right. Seeing the beautiful faces of the kids and their families at RebelTHON makes it all worth it and you then know that whatever you're going through in life is so little compared to the struggles these kids are facing. Yet they're so happy and their faces light up when a song they love comes on. It truly does make it worth it.

So, remember to sign up! The registration deadline is February 6th and the registration fee is $20 and that includes a t-shirt, and your meals. Also, there is a minimum of $100 you need to raise to be able to participate in it. But just think. That's as easy as asking 10 people you know (family, friends, co-workers, etc) to donate $10, and then you have your $100. So, sign up and bring your dancing shoes!!!

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

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.
