11 People You Meet During Finals Week

Finals week tends to bring out the worst in people. The lack of sleep, addition of caffeine, and adrenaline make people question their sanity. It is the most brutal week of the entire semester. These are just a few of the people you will meet during finals week.

1. "The Caffeine Addict."

This college student has been gearing up for the last few weeks of classes and finals. They have the ability to consume a pot of coffee by themselves.

2. "The Stress Eater."

This college student relies on the really good french fries in the cafeteria or the millions of the boxes of mac and cheese that are in their room to help with the stress and anxiety of finals week.

3. "The Library Hermit."

This college student practically lives in the library buried under papers and books. You usually find them at a single desk in the corner of the library freaking out about their five exams.

4. "The Night Owl."

This college student willingly stays up until four in the morning to ensure they know everything for their finals and then sleeps all day.

5. "The Procrastinator."

This college student does everything in their power not to study for their finals. Too tired, guess it's time for a nap. New episode of their favorite show put online, gotta watch that.

6. "The Sand Man."

The college student is so tired they have the ability to fall asleep anywhere. It doesn't matter if it's in the cafeteria while eating dinner, studying in the library, or in the shower.

7. "The Mad Scientist."

This college student is a science major. You question their sanity after looking at the entire white board they have filled with their practice problems. To you it looks like hieroglyphics.

8. "The Crier."

This college student has multiple breakdowns through out the day. This is their cathartic way of working through the stress and anxiety.

9. "The Tasmanian Devil."

This college student is the one that loses their mind. Everyone is genuinely concerned for their well-being, yet no one knows how to help them.

10. "The Walking Dead."

This college student is questioned about how they are functioning. They have pulled about five all-nighters and everyone wants to know how they haven't died yet.

11. "The Mom."

This college student has all the supplies. They have all the snacks, water bottles, and tissues to pass out to help everyone conquer through.

Though finals week is tough, somehow you get through! Keep on pushing through, summer is almost here.

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.
