It feels like the worst thing in the world when you're in college and have to wake up. What's even worse? Having to go to school when it's snowing outside. Let us have a snowy day off, please. Here a few valid reasons to cancel the next time.

1. Nobody knows how to drive when you're just trying to get to class.

It's like everyone forgets how to drive and goes 15 miles under the speed limit. Then, we get traffic and everyone is late to class and you already don't want to go.

2. It's even harder to get up for that early class because it's so dreary outside.

It still looks like nighttime... and it's cold. Obviously, I should go back to sleep then.

3. You swore they were going to cancel school, but instead they hit you with only a 2-hour delay so you're bummed.

But I even did that thing from when I was a kid like flush an ice cube down the toilet and wear my PJ's backward. Ugh.

4. You didn't do the homework or assignments from last night because you thought you wouldn't have school.

Well, crap. You can't even BS an assignment when you go to a university.

5. You made a plan of how your snow day was going to go.

Whether it was to stay inside where it's warm and just watch TV and drink hot cocoa or go outside with your friends. It's disappointing either way and ruins plans.

6. You're reminded by your younger siblings how much high school was canceled when it snowed and you just want to go back to the good ol' days.

Hey, our school-work is more difficult, we should be the ones getting the day off, not you.

7. You have to go scrap off any snow or ice on your car which might make you late to class.

You're in 7 layers trying to keep warm while you're taking snow off your car going to a class that you're not very amused with in the first place.

8. When you are late to class because of weather conditions, professors do not care about your well-being.

They may or may not take off points depending on your professor, your class, their syllabus, and how strict they are on attendance. It's nice to feel loved.

9. You could've used a day off, especially because everyone is getting sick this time of year.

It feels like you've won the Olympics if you don't get sick this time of year.

10. You pretty much just space out during class because of the weather. Then, the professor decides to call on you for an answer.

Let the odds be in your favor of answering the question correctly.

11. All you want at the end of a crappy day like this is to relax, but surprise, they assign you more homework.

Really?! You're going to make us go to class and have homework when all we want to do is relax, be lazy, and sleep. C'mon.

These are all common adult things we have to deal with when going to work. So, do us this favor, and give us one more snow day to feel like a kid again and have no work before we have to go out into the "real-world."

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.
