If you're a college student you understand the struggle of coming home. The packing, the traveling, and the worst part, the questions. The endless stream of questions that everyone asks. You are constantly bombarded with questions by your parents, aunts, neighbors, family friends, local mailman, etc… So the idea of coming home after a while isn't a great one because you know the questions are coming. Here are the 10 questions you know are coming when you come home from college and the sarcastic mental responses.

1. How's school?!

- It’s school, I go to class, I eat crappy food, I cry a little, it's all great.

2. How are your classes?

- My professor secretly hates me and won’t respond to my emails and I'm pretty sure I'm gonna have to retake the class next semester but ya classes are going amazing.

3. Do you have a boyfriend/girlfriend yet?

- No if I was dating someone I probably wouldn't be as miserable as I am right now.

4. Why don't you have a boyfriend/girlfriend yet?

- Maybe it's because I'm ugly, I don't know you tell me why no one finds me attractive.

5. Is it fun living in (insert your location)?

- Ya it's a great time, I stay on campus 95% of the time and the only reason I leave is to get milk and coffee pods so the Walgreens down the street is nice.

6. What do you do on the weekends?

- I try not to think about all the work I'm going to have to do Sunday night while I hangout with people that don't make me hate my life.

7. Do you have any friends?

- Yup they're the only reason I still somewhat enjoy going to school.

8. Are you thinking about transferring?

- I thought about dropping out all together but I'm already to deep into my college career so probably not.

9. What are you doing with the rest of your life?

- I have no idea, and I probably won’t know until about 6 months after graduation when the loan payments roll in and I'm forced to find a job.

10. Do you think (insert random cousin) would like it there?

- They’re 10 years old, instead of trying to find them a college to go to tell them to actually do their 10 minutes worth of homework so instead of getting a $15K scholarship they can get $20K; just for writing down definitions.

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.
