When you're searching for job after job, there's always that one you love but it seems too unattainable. That perfect job that you don't believe you would be able to even get an interview for.

What if I told you that there was an easy way to get the interview? When a human resources employee looks at your resume/application, they're looking for a well-rounded individual. Someone who isn't like everyone else. Someone who stands out from the crowd.

Well, in order to know the secret, answer these questions:

1. Do you like sharing your opinion about important issues facing our country?

2. Do you want to be a part of a community, both regionally and nationally?

3. Does the idea of having the freedom to create whatever you want sound exciting?

4. Do you want something that will stand out on your resume for its uniqueness (in a positive way)?

If you answered yes to any of those questions, then the secret is going to work out great for you.

What better way to stand out from the crowd than being an author on a national platform getting to share your opinions? A published author who writes and creates anything they want with no limitations. Do you want to speak out against our new president-elect using photographs? You can do it. Do you want to create a makeup tutorial? You can do that too.

You can create videos, essays, lists, poems, non-fiction pieces, photography, fiction pieces, just about anything you can think of.

Want to see what the possibilities are? Just take a look at some of the following pieces that have been created, like this video on touring the Phi Mu house at The University of Alabama.

Or what about this emotional article talking about what it's like to have a ton of friends, but not really fit in anywhere?

How about this politically charged article discussing why Donald Trump is not this author's president?

You could be known for writing, sharing, and creating content like what you just watched and read.

But how do you go about doing this? How hard is it to become a published author?

It's not hard at all thanks to Odyssey.

It is that time of year again. Christmastime. It is one of my favorite seasons for a myriad of reasons. Here are just a few reasons why I love Christmas. This list is in no order of importance.

1. The Christmas decorations

I am that person who will decorate directly after Thanksgiving is over. This year, my roommates and I put the tree up in our apartment before we even left for Thanksgiving break. It is a great stress reliever for me to just sit in my living room and work on the huge amount of work I have before the semester is over.

5 Things To Do That Are Better Than Writing A Paper

Don't waste your time trying to write that paper when there are so many more interesting things you could be doing.

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?
