College students seem to have a reliance on caffeine to get them through lectures and late night study sessions, but there are healthier alternatives to power through the day.

Horoscope: November 8, 2019

A baby born today has a Sun in Scorpio and a Moon in Pisces until 6:49 a.m., when the Moon enters Aries.

Happy birthday for Friday, Nov. 8, 2019:
This year, you enter a new period where you have an unusually strong desire to realize what you want. No one or nothing will stop you. If single, you will date and search for the right person, letting go if someone does not feel right. If attached, make sure not to overrun your sweetie, as relationships are a two-way street. Rather, convince your partner to join you when facing a strong decision. ARIES encourages you to go for what you want.
