Every new week in college is filled with a little bit of the same old, same old, which is only inevitable when we take the same classes every week and tend to surround ourselves with a lot of the same people. However, it does make it easy to pinpoint some "college moments" we have all probably experienced at some point or another. Whether these moments happen to you on a weekly basis or moments like these just come and go, here they are.

1. The college student mantra: When in doubt, Google it.

2. The oh sh*t moment when a professor calls on you, and you don't know it, your lifeline doesn't know it, even the nerdy kid next to you doesn't know it, and you're like:

3. The aha moment when, after getting a good grade on that test, you realize you're finally a genius.

6. The moment when you're sitting in class and you realize it's only Wednesday. Yes, this is real life, and yes, the week still isn't over.

7. The moment you have been waiting for all week: Friday, and you and your girl are feeling yo'selves.

8. Then there's the moment you hear the frat speech, where every fraternity house on campus says the same thing, "But our frat's different."

9. Next comes the waking up on Saturday morning moment (after a Friday night out), and what a b*tch that can be.

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.
