Good Morning, Terra Mater.

Inspired by our beautiful Mother Earth.

Good Morning, Terra Mater.
Chayanne Lawrence

The sun rises at 7:02 AM.

My eyes scanned the dark room around me while I listened to the constant buzz of my ceiling fan.

The light between my blinds faded from a mute dark blue,

to a loud bright baby blue.

The in-between time is what was breathtaking.

Some one, somehow managed to use a gradient overlay on the sky.

Times like these make me wonder why we chose the time schedule that we did.

Why we sleep through one of the most beautiful moments of the day.

Night is one of the most intriguing parts of life.

To be asleep during such an enlightening time, when everything is so clear, is wasteful.

Beauty is missed.

Time escapes us.

The birds, I want to know how the birds feel.

To be awake when dawns light does not permit its beauty to be missed.

When she is too bright to be ignored.

I watched the sun awaken this morning.

I think I fell in love with life all over again; or rather, for the first time.

When the sun went down thoughts of endings and conclusions clutter the vacant space in my head.

Tonight, I powered through.

I found a peace within the night,

which most people fall asleep before finding.

Today I lingered past sister luna.

I witnessed the birth of another day.

I watched as young ad lucem danced through my window and across the walls of my room.

Watching the sky fade from a cool purple-y blue to warm yellow orange, I was inspired to take on every day like my own reincarnation.

Just like our Terra Mater.

40 Gift Ideas for the Indecisive

It's a time of love, family, memory-making, and gift-giving. But also a time of stressing over the perfect gift.

It's officially December. There is less than a month of 2024, and I still feel like yesterday was summer. Now comes the merriest time of the year, the Christmas season.

Everyone has been waiting for this time of year since mid-October (which is way too early, in my opinion) or before. It's a time of love, family, memory-making, and gift-giving. A lot of times when I ask friends and family what they want, I get a lot of "I don't know" or "I don't care."

Bucket List To Live In The Now

Find excitement in your life and start exploring wherever you are right here, right now.

mu bucket list

I was sitting at my cubicle, now that I am an adult, looking at the rain pouring down on the windowsill, bumming on life, wishing for the rain to just stop for a full day.

There are moments where we count down the hours until work is over and how many more days till the weekend, and this many weeks until something exciting. Or something like that? Well, I was bumming because my next day off from work is not until Memorial Day weekend, which is not until the end of May. And since this is my first year out of college being a “real person,” I am totally missing the winter, spring and summer breaks. I am sure all of us have felt this way even if just for a hot minute…

Great Value Colleges

If you go to or went to Kent State, then more than likely you have done or will do some of these things.

1. You’ve slipped and fallen on the ice at least once.

The winters at Kent are brutal, and while the heated sidewalks and some great snow boots are always a help, there’s no chance you won’t bust it on the ice at least once in your four plus years at school.
