11 Things Every College Student With a Job Knows All Too Well
Giphy

College is stressful.

This is especially real when one is juggling a part/full time job while being a student. Whether you are in retail, visuals, food, service, or an office job, it takes a special kind of person to juggle very time-consuming things like work and school.

Here are 11 things all of us worker students can relate to:

1. Rushing to get homework done during our very-little free time....

2. LOLing when your non-working friends think you have time to hang out....

3. When you do get free time, all you do is lay in bed...

4. Trying to find time to eat like....

5. Getting that paycheck like....

6. Realizing you don't really have time to go on shopping sprees to spend all of your money...

7. Always having something you need to be working on...

8. Looking like death when going out anywhere...

9. Running off of less than 6 hours of sleep...

10. Dealing with teachers who think you have time to deal with group projects outside of class...

11. Smiling because your strong work ethic is developing and thriving everyday...

Shout out to all the peeps going to school and working simultaneously. Yes, doing this can seem overwhelming at times, but you doing this really shows your ability to handle a lot of responsibilities at once. YOU DA MVP. Do not give up. You are a stand out. MAKE THAT MONEY. WORK HARD. GET ON THAT GRIND.

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.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

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.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

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.
