The Bee

Known for it's sting, It's knees and for being busy

But not buzzed about for its contribution of life

Spread of fertility and beauty

Or the positivity and light in the darkness of it's appearance

While its song may be unnerving it's duty is honorable

It defends as we do

Reacting when threatened

Inflicting less pain than humans do on a daily basis

The Queen Bee

A regal woman who deserves her title

Rebuilds entire colonies by herself

A feminine independence all woman want to gain

We take her name to show power, attitude and to be admired as she is

Hexagonal Honeycombs

In line with Venus

Love and Communication reflected in an insect's creation

Unlike us in our nation divided

They bond together in one common goal

They are a piece of the lovely things in life

In flowers, honey and nature

Though small they symbolize much that is great

Rather than recoil, Respect

The bee serves as a reminder to us to take the sweetness out of life and use it towards our future

As a reminder that while we must always be productive and moving forward we must also stop and smell the flowers

As a reminder that while not everyone may be fond of you, you are still a vital part of the world

That there is a higher purpose in life for you to serve, and things for you to achieve

It's not all morning coffees and singing along to the radio.

The Daily Struggles of Being a College Commuter
morethanwheels

I've been in college for four years now. I spent half my time as a commuter and half as a resident so I've experienced both sides of the housing spectrum. One thing I've learned comparing the two is that my struggles as a commuter far outweigh anything I went through while living on campus. Commuters have to deal with the problems school brings along with a slew of other issues; I've filled up my gas tank in the worst kind of weather conditions and napped in random places in public more times than I'm proud to say of. This is a list of some of the most challenging aspects of being a commuter.
