My Goals For My Senior Year

Every individual has different life experiences, one of those experiences being high school. High school has always been awesome for me; I really cannot complain. Now that I am going into my senior year, I feel like I have high school figured out now. I know what I enjoy, what my interests are, and who I like to hangout with; this year I want to shake things up a bit.

My senior year I want to step outside of my box. I am going to join more clubs, some that I have never even heard of. I will hangout with different people and expand my friendships. I'll choose to enjoy every single football game because this will be the last time I ever cheer in high school. I want to live differently than I have the past three years.

Embarking on My Last Year of High School

Embarking on My Last Year of High School

There is no reason why we, as people, cannot step outside of our boxes. It is a good thing to get out of your comfort zone! Wear what you want, even if it's not "approved" by the people around you. Be excited for spirit weeks and spirit points, because that is what high school is all about.

Many people have this idea that it is not cool to get involved, and I completely disagree. My best memories throughout high school so far are not the parties or the school work, they are the social experiences on campus. The more involved you get the more fun your high school experience becomes. Go to all of the football games, join new clubs with people you don't know, dress up for the spirit days, participate in the rallies and assemblies, do whatever you can to GET INVOLVED.

This year I am choosing to step out of my comfort zone and be a part of my campus, even more so than I already have. I will be one out of three captains on the varsity cheer squad, involved in American Cancer Society, I am going to work toward getting another bar on my academic letter, and even more.

We should be excited for this stepping stone. Each year is different, but we should make each year better than the last. I am looking forward to graduating with the class of 2017 and seeing what marks we will make and leave on our campuses.

Taylor Swift's Eras Tour is What I Hope Heaven Feels Like

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.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

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.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

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.
