12 Signs You're Ready To Go Back To Brandeis

While home was refreshing for the majority of the summer, the time has come to return back to college, where all of your friends are together in one location, and you are entirely FREE. Here are some signs you are itching to get back:

1. You're ready to spend points because it doesn't feel like you're spending real money.


Points are the best part of our meal plans, yet we fly through them because they're not technically money, so it doesn't hurt too badly to swipe. You learn eventually to be really good friends with the person with heaps of points. Flex plan, anyone?

2. The BranVan may rarely be on time, but it is the best mode of transportation for our weekend outings.


Who wants to walk down South St. when the BranVan stop is just at Rabb? Though it can be a 30-minute wait and the van is usually 100 percent filled, you learn to appreciate not having to walk to parties or designate a DD.

3. You miss seeing all your friends in the library.


No matter what corner you turn or how hidden you want to be, the library was made for reunions...despite the fact you just saw all of your friends at the C-Store.

4. There's no curfew or rules to follow.


Where are you going? Who are you going with? When will you get there? What will you do there? When will you come back? Nope. You do whatever you feel like doing.

5. Because the freedom is limitless.


You can do laundry when you wish. You can sleep when you want to. You can eat whatever you want.

6. Though Asia Wok may sound unappetizing during the day, it is the best food past midnight.


Praise Asia Wok for their late-night delivery. Praise.

7. You miss having the convenience of Sherman and Usdan.


For those on campus, the stress of planning what you have to eat is off your hands. No need for grocery shopping or cooking for you.

8. You're ready to use new school supplies.


There is something so satisfying about using new supplies that makes you motivated to be organized for a little while.

9. Learning and doing homework is starting to sound appealing.


You've fried your brain by watching so many hours of TV, movies, and Netflix that you feel you have to regain some brain cells back at school.

10. Napping has become a lifestyle.


You've slept enough hours to last the whole semester, and even a few all-nighters. On second thought, maybe not..

11. You're tired of constantly checking all sources of social media for updates on college friends.


Your thumb has cramped up multiple times scrolling through the same news feed and refreshing Facebook, Snapchat, Instagram, etc. You just want to go back to school and be in the moment with your friends.

12. You're counting down the days until everyone returns back to campus.


T-minus [X] amount of days until you return back to your second home.

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.
