This semester is well-underway, and that New Year's resolution you made to never miss class is fading in the distance. These next few weeks will be filled with exams and projects, as it is that time again. Somehow we have learned enough to be tested on, even though it feel likes winter break ended yesterday.

As much as you want to stay in bed and ignore the snow, you really should go to class. As someone who feels your pain, I promise that there are reasons why we all tell ourselves we aren’t going to ever skip class. Here are 12 reasons why you should get out of bed and go to class today.


1. The professor might give out extra credit


2. The walk to class is good exercise

3. You are paying tuition for class, so you may as well make your money worth it

4. You might meet the love of your life

5. You can learn something new

6. You might see a dog on your way there

7. The professor might tell you what is going to be on the next exam


8. You probably get points for attendance and you shouldn’t miss those

9. If you go today, then you can miss class later in the semester when you REALLY need to

10. There might be a pop quiz

11. You can call your parents and tell them that, yes, you did go to class today

12. You’ll get a better understanding of how to do the homework

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.
