The ABCs Of Scranton

A day in the life of a Scranton Student.

The ABCs Of Scranton
University of Scranton

The University of Scranton is a place like no other. Unless you attend the U, there is no way to understand the love that most of us have for it. There are so many things on campus that makes it unique and separates it from any other university in the country. Here are a few examples in the form of the ABCs:

A

is for academics since we are all so smart.

B

is for brunch. The best meal of the the week.

C

is for Chik-fil-A. The only one in the area.

D

is for DeNaples. The center of our lives.

E

is for Einstein's and the best bagels on campus.

F

is for Flex, which runs out way too fast.

G

is for GLM. Otherwise known as the brothel.

H

is for hills. It's why we all have nice calves.

I

is for ice cream on 3rd floor.

J

is for Jesuits.

K

is for key, which someone is always losing.

L

is for LSC Study Rooms.

M

is for the memories that we make during our four years here.

N

is for New Jersey and New York because that's where most of us are from.

O

is for omelets. The best part of brunch (besides the smoothies).

P

is for professors, who are always there when you need help.

Q

is for quiet hours. A rule that is rarely enforced.

R

is for Royals, which we are all proud to be.

S

is for squirrels. There is no explanation necessary.

T

is for tray. Like a "tray" of pizza.

U

is for umbrella because it is always raining.

V

is for very cold. Scranton has super chilly winters.

W

is for wolves. The Royal Wolves.

X

is for eXams because they seem to happen all the time.

Y

is for Yik Yak. Our source of all gossip.

Z

is for ZZZZZZZs because we don't get a lot of them around here.

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.
