A Cover Of "You and I" By Ingrid Michaelson

"Let's get rich and give everybody nice sweaters."

Here's a little cover of the song "You and I" by Ingrid Michaelson. (This is a first for me as I have never covered songs before.) It is a sweet little song about two lovers who don't have much, except their love for one another. It is somewhat of a muse on the idea of what they would do if they ever got rich.

"Let's get rich and buy our parent's homes in the south of France.
Let's get rich and give everybody nice sweaters
and teach them how to dance.
Let's get rich and build our house on a mountain,
making everybody look like ants
from way up there.
You and I, you and I."

I'd like to think that if I ever have more than I need that I would give sweaters to everyone and teach people how to dance.

Writing a paper is never fun and is rarely rewarding. The writer's block, the page requirement, be specific, but don’t summarize, make sure you fixed any grammatical errors, did you even use spellcheck? and analyze, analyze, analyze.

Papers can be a major pain. They take up so much time and effort that by the end of the process you hate yourself and you hate the professor for making life so difficult. Questions of your existence start roaming in your mind. Am I even cut out for college if I can’t write a single paper? Am I even capable of taking care of myself if I lack the energy to open my laptop and start typing?

sisters

Taylor Hooper

I can barely remember back when I was the only child. Most would say it’s because it is extremely difficult to remember things as a toddler but I would say it's because I was bored until my sister came along. My mother always says how important the "sister bond" is and with every year that passes I realize how right she is. Instead of writing a novel about all of the wonderful things there are about having a sister I decided to list a few of them instead.

how to adult

Twitter

It is the time of our lives that we are beginning to enter the adult world and most of us, if not all of us, have no idea what we are doing. It's like starting a video game, but skipping the tutorial. We're all just running around aimlessly hoping we accidentally do something right that moves us along the right path. Now that graduation has just happened, or is right around the corner for some of us, it's time to start thinking about how we are going to take care of ourselves once we are on our own.

College involves a whirlwind of emotions, whether it’s from the stress of an assignment (or twenty), or from fighting with your roommate. It can be overwhelming at times and it’s important to take a step a back and calmly think things over. Maybe gain some perspective. The following aren’t foolproof tips and may not apply to you, but I was able to find success with them (hope you do too!)
