I've been a content creator for Odyssey for over a year and Editor in Chief for almost half. I love what I do and I love my team, who also loves what they do!

1. “I like that it’s a cool outlet for my brain. I think that people should join Odyssey because it’s a great tool for enhancing your writing skills and it’s a resume builder.” Content Creator Lucas Kozeniesky

2. “Being able to improve my writing and express how I really feel (which is hard for me to do in a conversation) are some of the reasons I love Odyssey.” Content Creator Lorna Johnson

3. “[I like that] I get to do a wide variety of writing here.” Content Creator Robin Gruendl

4. “My favorite part is being able to have a platform to express my views publicly! As a minor, there are limited ways I can share my opinion and I actually be listened to, and I really appreciate Odyssey offering a way for teenagers and young people to speak up on issues that matter to us!” Content Creator Jillian Ward

5. “My favorite part is the resume boost! I get to have products to show during job interviews and my name is on the Internet which is good!” Social Media Director Savannah Little

6. “[I like] that it creates friendship and brings old friends together.” Secretary Carey Shook

7. “[I like] getting to express myself through writing and the family dynamic that we all have.” Content Creator Rachel Smith

8. “[I like] getting to work with my best friend all the time while also forming new friendships, being able to express my opinions in my writing while also starting a conversation with those who read my articles, and honing my writing ability.” Content Creator Shannon Kerns

9. “I love that I get to know so many different people that outside of Odyssey I might never get the chance to. I enjoy getting to see all the hard work that the team puts into their pieces pay off. Our team is a family, it’s wild and fun. People should join Odyssey so that they can have their voice heard and meet new people.” Editor-in-Chief Blair Gruendl

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.

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.
