Everybody knows one of them... who's your's?

1. The person who has no finals and gets to go home early.

When this is you, it's glorious, but for everyone else, it's a bitter event. Some people have a lucky semester, but everyone else is mutually bitter.

2. The person who hasn't studied all semester and is now depending on his final.

Honestly, we've all been there in a class. Some of them just don't have that many grades. But at least be realistic when you're asking everyone for help. You're desperate, but they need their study time too. Don't be that guy.

3. The person who plays loud music at all hours.

We get it. You like your music. Maybe it helps you study. It does not help the rest of us. Get some headphones or turn it down, please and thank you.

4. The person who took your prime study spot.

Be a team player, don't take a spot you've seen someone occupy almost all of reading day. Odds are they will be back and they will be cranky. If worse comes to worse, your room can be a great backup place.

5. The professor who grades everyone super hard.

His classes are difficult and his exams are hard. Odds are he is a really nice guy, but on finals week you'd really rather not see him.

6. The professor who makes like their finals are super easy so you never know what to expect.

This professor is probably your favorite. And honestly, the test will probably be easy. But you can never know for sure so you may as well memorize everything for the course, right?

7. The person who won't stop talking to you while you're trying to study.

Love them, yes. want to talk to them at the moment, no. Just remember that it's their finals week, too. Show them whatever grace you can spare.

8. The person who complains too much about finals.

Yes, it stinks, but we're all in it together. You'll be okay.

9. The people who try to make plans with you the night before your BIG test.

Yes, you love your friends, but you also love passing all of your classes too...

10. The person who is sure they got all As in her classes.

In every class, there's that one person who is certain of their greatness. If this is you, just tone it down for the rest of us a little this week. We could all use the support and pep talks.

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.
