10 Feels You Understand If You're A Crazy Busy College Student
Bekah Lane

Being a college student isn't all about Netflix and chill. When you are trying to have a competitive GPA for grad school while also working part-time and participating in clubs and community service events, it's hard to find any time to just relax and hang out with your friends. You love the major you chose and you don't necessarily hate staying busy, but there are some days that you feel like you're so overwhelmed you're going to explode. Here are ten feels every busy college student can relate to.

1. When you're "non-busy," friends ask if you wanna go out on a Thursday night.

But you have two tests to study for, a paper to write, and an existential crisis to deal with before 9 a.m. tomorrow.

2. When you meet someone you like, but you literally have no time for the "just talking" phase.

3. When you get the highest score in the class on a test that you worked your butt off for.

4. When you spent every hour in the last three days studying for a test and you still do terrible.

5. When you're sitting in class on Friday thinking about how you're finally going be able to chill this weekend.

Then you remember that you have to attend a community service event on Saturday, work on Sunday, and write an eight-page paper by Monday.

6. When someone asks you, "Hey, are you free tonight?"

7. When you are watching your friends live it up over their Snapchat stories while you're in the library/at work/in class/at a club event.


8. When you don't have time to change before a fancy event, so you just bust into class looking fine as f***.

9. When you have company, but you haven't had any time to clean since the first week of school.

10. When the semester is over and you can actually relax for a hot second until your summer work schedule or classes start up!

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.
