10 Emotions We All Face The Week Of Thanksgiving
I Hate Green Beans

As the day approaches, us college students couldn't be counting down the days sooner. Not only is it a break from our busy schedules but a time to go home and get real food for the weekend.

1. Wanting classes to be cancelled the day before

We all pray and pray and pray and yet, our professors seem to find entertainment in the fact that the class groans when they announce attendance will be counted for the day before thanksgiving. Really?

2. The feeling of seeing your family and friends


When was the last time you went home? The last time you slept in your own bed? Oh the joy!

3. Having a real meal for the first time In months


It's been months since you've had decent food and you're ready to chow down so you're a little hangry.

4. When people ask how school Is going


Please don't ask... This semester actually sucked.

5. Being able to relax for more than 2 days


You mean no worries for more than 2 days? I mean it's at least 3-4 days but as a college student - you take what you can get.

6. And then waiting in lines for Black Friday just as the night ends


Because what's better than eating amazing food? Standing in line at 11 at night waiting for all of the discounted goodies.

7. "Are you still single?"


This is just awkward....

8. When you've just been home a little too long


You're starting to argue with your siblings again... Now it's time to probably pack your bags.

9. But when the break ends, saying goodbye is hard


But saying goodbye is the hardest part.

10. Then the fact that you're back on campus and want to go home again


Is it too late to turn around???


But at the end of the day when you're drowning in homework once again and pulling your hair out from the stress of finals next month, your mom is the first person you'll call.

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.
