10 Quotes From 'Harry Potter' That Are Actually Meant For College Students
Warner Brothers

" Harry Potter" is perhaps the greatest book series of all time.

Actually, thats a lie, I know it is the greatest book series of all time.

One of the great things about the series is how relatable it is, even when you're older than the main characters. Just because you aren't 12 anymore doesn't mean that "The Chamber of Secrets" isn't just as magical. In fact, "Harry Potter" is a lot like college. So, here are 10 quotes from Harry Potter that actually describe your college experience.

1. When you have zero clue what is happening in a class, but you study for a week solid and actually manage to do well on the test.

2. That imaginary relationship you have in your head with that boy in your lab that held the door open for you once

3. When you and your roommate spend three hours watching "Barefoot Contessa" while eating KFC mashed potatoes on a Tuesday night and wonder how you got so cool.

4. When all your friends are going out and you want to join them but you have a paper due the next day.

5. When you go home and see that your parents haven't touched your room since you left.

6. When you tank a test, but your professor sends an email a few hours later saying he's curving it, and your GPA rises like Fawkes the Phoenix.

7. When you have more coffee in your body than blood, you've worn sweatpants three days in a row and you don't even look to see if that car is waiting for you to cross. Go on, pay my tuition.

8. When your day is gonna be hard, but hey, D-hall has your favorite kind of cereal!

9. When it's your turn to be roasted in the group chat

10. When Netflix asks you if you're still watching "The Office."

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.
