Fall break for people who live far away is basically pointless. when you live 8 hours from home, its not worth it to be home for 3 days. Being a college student on campus during fall break, i have learned a couple of things.

1) Domino's is Bae

Caf food is already pretty bad, but during fall break they do not put in effort AT ALL. You will learn that pizza is your new best friend, plus you don't even have to leave your building.

2) You can watch whatever you want and nobody can judge you

And added bonus, you don't have to wear headphones

3) You become very afraid of the dark

Without your roommate, things become terrifying, especially when there are clown threats at your school. You learn to sleep with the door locked.

4) Your school work can always wait until after the next episode

You tell yourself only one more but then 6 episodes later and you're too far in to stop now. Plus you have all week...right?

5) Everything is quiet

There is literally no one on campus, walking around feels so lonely.

6) You get really lazy

You have no motivation at all to move, you might even sleep with the lights on just because you're to lazy to turn them off.

7) You sing in the shower

...Loudly, and there is no one around to hear it.

8) You don't care what you look like

You will walk out of the room without shoes on, hair in a bun, PJs, and a HUGE sweatshirt, and you could literally not care less.

9) You might start to get a little stir crazy

After watching all of Grey's Anatomy in one sitting, you might start to lose your mind just a bit. You might even start doing laundry or dishes, just because there is nothing else to do.

10) You miss your friends a lot

You are counting down the hours until your friends and roommate get back on campus.

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.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

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.
