10 Thoughts College Students Have In The Days Leading Up To Spring Break
Julien Haler

Whether you're going on an exciting adventure or just taking time to rest at home, these thoughts have probably crossed your mind at some point during the last few days. Spring break is short, but you can make some of your best memories during that week. Go out of your comfort zone, hug your family and catch up with old friends. But most of all, have the time of your life.

1. Can I go five more days with two pairs of jeans?

The desperation to avoid doing laundry starts kicking in.

2. I cannot spend any money whatsoever.

If that means not buying shampoo or your favorite coffee, you suffer through.

3. I can’t wait to see everyone!

If you’re one of many going home for spring break, seeing your family and friends is the light at the end of a very long tunnel.

4. I’m not looking forward to seeing people.

If you’re going away for break, chances are there will not be a lot of down time. That means looking presentable a majority of the time. However, you know once you get out, you'll have a blast.

5. I think I am going to start on that homework that isn’t due until break.

Although you know wholeheartedly that you won’t start on it until the night before school starts again.

6. I can’t forget to clean out my fridge.

You’ve made the mistake before and will not be doing it again.

7. If I can just get through this midterm…

There is always that one professor that plans a test or assignment so you can’t leave when you really wanted to.

8. When I get back I get put away my winter clothes!

This might be true for normal college students, but in Wyoming there will probably be a blizzard in mid-April. However, when that time finally comes around, we know how good the feeling is.

9. How long until summer?

Having this break coming up makes you count the days until the semester is officially over.

10. I only have five days left until it’s over.

Once your break actually starts you can’t help to slowly count down the days until you have to go back. At times this could be a good thing, but it mostly just makes you sad.

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.
