Not everything makes me sad to say goodbye.

11 Things That I Won't Miss About College
pinterest.com

With graduation just around the corner, seniors are starting to get emotional and nostalgic. We're all sad to be leaving behind a place that's become our home over the past few years, and the friends who have become our family. But, rather than focusing on what we don't want to leave behind, let's take a moment to celebrate the fact that there are also annoying things about college that we won't have to put up with anymore.

Here is a list of all of the things that won't be missed by graduating seniors:

1. Putting off doing laundry because the washing machines and dryers are a) gross b) always full unless it's the dead of night and c) only work like 43% of the time.


2. Wearing shoes in the shower.

Or just the dirty dorm showers in general. Freshman year, I yawned in the shower and a bug flew into my mouth (true story).

3. Getting sick from the food after a long break because your body hasn't "adjusted" to it yet.


4. Having to eat bananas that are either too ripe or not ripe enough because that's all the dining hall ever has.


5. Getting sick every time someone in your hall gets sick.


6. People that say stupid things during class discussions.

"Really? Peru's in South America?"

Really? You're in college?

7. Wifi that always seems to stop working as soon as you have to write a research paper or video chat with your grandma.


8. Sleeping on a mattress topper.

One of two things happen when you try to fall asleep: it's impossible to get comfortable, or the thing starts sliding off your bed and you have to keep readjusting it.

9. People that act like they're still in high school.


10. The overwhelming panic and stress that finals week brings every year.

11. People throwing up EVERYWHERE.

And puke sitting in trash cans, water fountains, or sinks for days on end, stinking up the halls.

To all of these things we say, goodbye and good riddance.

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.
