Zoom University...Another Semester Down

If you had another semester on Zoom U, give yourself some credit.

We did it! We survived another semester of classes on Zoom University.

Some of you may be thinking, how did we do that? The days just seem to go on for forever.

I don't know about you, but I unfortunately had all of my classes on Zoom this past semester.

If you're in the same boat as me, this semester consisted of waking up later than my alarm, turning on my computer right before the start of class, seeing my face in my computer, and then turning my camera off immediately.

Yes, the days were very repetitive.

I never in a hundred years thought I'd miss running to class halfway across campus every day. I especially never thought I'd be here, logging onto my computer for school every day when I go to a school with one of the best college campuses ever!

This whole semester was a battle between getting my Zoom to operate, and trying to understand what the professors were saying about when assignments were actually due.

But, ah. I can take a sigh of relief. This semester is finally wrapping up, and I could not be happier!

I survived another semester of Zoom.

It was weird, it was an adjustment. Five online classes? That is why I am giving myself credit.

So, if you also thought going to Zoom U every day was a struggle, you got through it! You did it.

Pat yourself on the back and take a breather. Relax when you're on winter break. You, and all the other college students, definitely deserve it.

Give yourself some credit. We had to learn how to learn in a whole different way. That deserves some recognition.

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.

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.

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.
