I am more than proud to call Pierre Part, Louisiana my beloved hometown.

Mais Welcome To Pierre Part Sha
Megan Landry

At the mention of my hometown, Pierre Part, my heart is filled with love, and my whole being is put at ease because the truth is that I am a small town girl in love with the little paradise of Pierre Part, Louisiana. My hometown is very special to me because of the community spirit blossoming from within, the beauty it upholds, and the adventurous childhood it has allowed me to experience.

The little speck of land, barely on the map, named Pierre Part has one of the best communities. It possesses a simply welcoming and friendly atmosphere. It is one of the best places to be when a disaster occurs because the people of Pierre Part do not hesitate to offer their assistance and pull together as one for the good of all. If you were to knock on any given Pierre Partian's door, you will most likely be greeted with a "Come on in y'all!" and depart with a "Mais it's early, sha!" Although the Cajun accents may be a little hard to understand, the lively spirit of Pierre Part is clear through every handshake and hello.

Through all my travels, which have been very many might I add, I have come across quite a few small towns such as Pierre Part, but I have never seen a more beautiful place. Pierre Part is blessed with the purest natural beauty because of our swamps filled with mossy trees and all kinds of God's creatures. It's very difficult for me to walk outside and not give praise to God for creating such a beautiful flourishing piece of land.

Not only am I in love with my hometown because of the people and natural beauty, but also when I look back on memories made. I cannot help but be thankful for growing up in Pierre Part. I am definitely a barefoot type of girl, which makes my hometown the perfect place for a child like me to grow up. I'm almost certain that I have never spent a sunny day inside in my whole life. My family and I always enjoy fishing, picnics, back yard baseball, four wheeler riding, swimming, or some type of outdoor activity. If I had not grown up in my hometown, I'm not sure I would have turned out to be the fun loving spirited person I am today.

I truly love my hometown so much that if it is in God's plan, I would be completely content in living the rest of my life in Pierre Part. Although it may be smaller than most towns, the loving spirit of the community as a whole is quite large. Not only is the heart and soul of Pierre Part beautiful, but also the scenery is definitely one of God's masterpieces. I am so blessed to be able to say that I am a full-blooded born and raised Pierre Partian.

No Matter How Challenging School Gets, You Have To Put Your Health First — A Degree Won't Mean Anything If You're Dead

Some of the best advice I've ever received was from my social studies teacher in sophomore year of high school. He stated, "If you don't know it at midnight, you're not going to know it for the 8 a.m. exam, so get some sleep."

It's such a simple piece of advice, but it holds so much accuracy and it's something that the majority of college students need to hear and listen to. "All-nighters" are a commonality on college campuses in order to cram in studying for an exam that is typically the next day.

This is for the girls who have dealt with an emotionally, mentally, physically or verbally abusive father.

The ones who have grown up with a false lens of what love is and how relationships should be. The ones who have cried themselves to sleep wondering why he hurts you and your family so much. This is for all the girls who fall in love with broken boys that carry baggage bigger than their own, thinking it's their job to heal them because you watched your mother do the same.

Blair Waldorf Quote
"DESTINY IS FOR LOSERS. IT'S JUST A STUPID EXCUSE TO WAIT FOR THINGS TO HAPPEN INSTEAD OF MAKING THEM HAPPEN." - BLAIR WALDORF.

The world stopped in 2012 when our beloved show "Gossip Girl" ended. For six straight years, we would all tune in every Monday at 9:00 p.m. to see Upper Eastside royalty in the form of a Burberry headband clad Blair Waldorf. Blair was the big sister that we all loved to hate. How could we ever forget the epic showdowns between her and her frenemy Serena Van Der Woodsen? Or the time she banished Georgina Sparks to a Christian summer camp? How about that time when she and her girls took down Bart Bass? Blair is life. She's taught us how to dress, how to be ambitious, and most importantly, how to throw the perfect shade.

too tired to care

We've all been there. From move-in day to the first finals week in college, your first term is an adventure from start to finish. In honor of college decisions coming out recently, I want to recap some of the most common experiences college freshmen experience.

1. The awkward hellos on move-in day.

You're moving your stuff onto your floor, and you will encounter people you don't know yet in the hallway. They live on your floor, so you'll awkwardly smile and maybe introduce yourself. As you walk away, you will wonder if they will ever speak to you again, but don't worry, there's a good chance that you will make some great friends on your floor!
