10 Things Students Feel/ Do When Spring Break Is Near

Spring semester is one that you wish would hurry up and end (especially if you are a graduating senior). And the weeks leading up to spring break are long and tedious. You hate being at school, you don't even try for your 8am anymore, and if you live anywhere above Tenessee, it is too cold to wear anything that doesn't make you look like a marshmallow.

These are things that are bound to happen in the weeks leading up to spring break:

1. You begin to get sick and tired of every single person that you have to see on a regular basis. You start to get irritated with the little ways that people do certain things. You don't hate anyone, but you could definitely use a little break from spending time with them.

2. Your papers become less and less professional and more and more like you don't care. You begin to turn in papers and say things like, "this is trash, but oh well." You just turn it in and hope for the very best.

3. You start to wonder why February does not have a break-worthy holiday. Like, why can't I have a week off for Valentine's day?

4. The last two weeks before break become a complete joke. All you want is to be home or leaving for your spring break trip.

5. You miss the home cooked food like nobody's business. You cannot stand to eat the food at the dining hall much longer. You actually start to wonder how much food is necessary to keep you alive.

6. You begin to skip 10 point assignments when the class is out of 150+ points. Does it really matter if I miss one?

7. If you are doing an internship, you start becoming part of your agency staff and counting down the hours until 4 (or 5) gets here and you get to go back to campus. You start to sound like the employees.

8. You begin to become very bitter about the cold weather. Because spring is on your mind and you just want to be able to wear a light jacket instead of looking like a marshmallow.

9. You constantly some state of permanently exhausted pigeon. And you wonder why everyone else is looking like a swan. But whatever, people feed pigeon fries on a consistent basis. So it's cool.

10. You are constantly looking at your car and thinking that you should wash it on a nice day. But you never do. And you just wait for the rain to get rid of the salt.

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.
