10 Stages Of Going Back To School

Ah, new school semester, what a wonderful time. There are many emotions and feelings that begin going through everyone’s head once this time of the year comes around - especially for seniors. Senior year is probably going to be incredibly stressful and filled with restless nights. Not only do we, as seniors, have to think about schoolwork, but now we have to go through the process of deciding what the hell we want to do for the rest of adulthood. So. Exciting. Yay.

Here are some stages that I believe college students go through once a new school semester starts:

    1. You say you’ll try to wake up early and work out before (or after) classes. Oh, and you’ll try to eat healthy too. But really salads are around 7 dollars verses cheaper and possibly not as healthy options, we're in college, which one do you think we'll pick2. You then realize how much you really hate waking up early, for anything. 3. You say you’ll stay on top of assignments and actually make an effort to read the books, etc.4. You’ll make an effort to look cute, comfy and stylish.5. You make it a point to be done with assignments and project by the deadline, but really procrastinate. 6. You realize someone you don’t like is in your class. 7. Then everything begins to hit you like a truck and the anxiety and stress begin. Then you pretend to have it all together. 8. Then there’s finals week.9. Trying not to lose it/ give up entirely or cry and curl up in your bed.10. Then comes school break/end of the semester and you’re overcome with joy.

Of course everyone deals with the new semester in their own way and this was just poking fun at what most complain about or go through at some point when they're in college. But let's try to make the best of it, we'll get through it. Fingers crossed.

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.
