10 Reasons Why I'm Ready To Go Back To College
Wikepedia

I love college. I am also blessed with an awesome family that makes going back to school hard. My parents house is way cleaner than the dorms, my bed at home is way more comfortable, I get home-cooked meals, and my mom does my laundry. Oh, and I get to be home and see my parents. These are all things that I love about being home. But feeling like I am exactly where I am supposed to be while I'm at school is an awesome feeling. Here are 10 reasons why I am ready to go back to college.

1. I miss my friends.

A lot of my friends are from another state or are hours away in my home state. This doesn't make it easy to see them in the summer and it's sometimes hard to see the ones that are close with us being working adults now. I miss them and I can't wait to see them and hear all about their summer and stay up all hours of the night having fun.

2. I like learning. I like the classes I take.

The classes I am taking are my choice and will help me with my future career. They are interesting and I learn so much in them, which is fun to me. I also like a good challenge, and most of the time college classes provide plenty of them.

3. Experiencing new things.

You never know what is gonna happen on campus or with your friends. Experiencing new things and learning about people and the world is fun.

4. Community.

The community at my school is amazing. The school cares about the students, the professors care about the students, and the students care about other students. Community is important in life, and I am so thankful for the quality of the community at my school.

5. I'm always busy there.

I like being busy. I like having stuff to do. It makes me feel accomplished and good when I can cross something off of a to-do list. I'm busy during the summer to, but it's just a different kind of busy at school.

6. I have a routine.

I function better when I have a set schedule. I like having my routine with classes and meal times and work.

7. Campus worship.

I go to a Christian university that has campus worship every Wednesday. And let me tell you, it's awesome. It's the best part of Wednesday's.

8. School events.

Dances, sporting events, musical events, festivals, plays, and interesting speakers are just a few.

9. Campus food.

During the school year I complained about having to eat school food all the time, but now I miss it.

10. I love my school.

I'm so glad that I have the opportunity to attend college. Being able to go to get my degree while having fun at my school is a true blessing.

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.
