The 7 Questions You’ll Be Asked Over Break

1. Do You Have A Boyfriend Yet?

“Nope still single, but thank you for that constant reminder that I need to find someone to kiss by New Years Eve.”  I don’t even know why this question is asked half of the time, if there was someone important in my life you’d probably have to tell me to shut up instead.

2. What’s your major again?

Normally I wouldn’t mind telling anyone about my major, but after I’ve been asked 37 times within the same day, in a group of 10 people, it starts getting a little irritating.  I also love how this one can be followed with an “ohhh, what do you want to do with that?”  Give me a break, I literally just figured out my major.

3. How were your grades this semester?

“Can we please, please, please not talk about them right now.  I’m still suffering from PSD after finals week.”  This is what I feel like every family member asks you whilst eating Christmas dinner.  Can we change the topic to anything other than school, its Christmas, people!

4. Can I borrow your laptop real quick?

“Well, I sold my soul for this thing and I actually use it everyday… I guess but wash your hands first.”  Normally that is exactly what I tell my little cousins that just want to play Mine Craft, or look up weird YouTube videos that they think is funny.

5. Do you remember (enter irrelevant name of someone from high school)?

“No, I’m trying to block out high school days as much as I can, even though I’m in the motherland right now.”  I will have to say though this one is my favorite of all the irritating questions because it’s normally followed by some crazy pointless story about a person you can’t even remember.  Also if you say you don’t know who it is, the person with you normally spends about 5 minutes trying to describe them to you. Big high school probs.

6. Do you have any crazy stories from this semester?

This one right here is a great question for friends from high school that you haven’t seen in awhile.  But from that 32-year-old creep from work with a daughter.  You know the one that has tried multiple times to hit on you even though he’s almost twice your age.  “No sir I’m not telling you s***.”   The other person that might try this one is that girl that’s still in high school that survives off of gossip.  Be careful what you say to her, your entire hometown will know before the next day.

7. When do you go back to school? 

“Not soon enough my friend, not soon enough.”  I honestly never thought I would be someone who would love being at school until I started college. But, going back to school and starting classes are two completely different things.

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.
