12 Signs You're In A Sophomore Slump, As Told By "New Girl"
Cheatsheet

College. It's a doozy. It's only my sophomore year, yet I am already feeling run dry from the work load I have been getting from my classes. Just about anything sounds better than going to class Monday through Friday. (Sorry, mom and dad.) Here's my account of the phenomenon "The Sophomore Slump,' as told by my favorite characters of "New Girl."


1. You find just about any excuse to skip class and do something more, uh... productive.


2. You seriously consider dropping out of school and moving to a foreign country at least twice a day. Who needs college, am I right?


3. You show up to class hungover, looking like a hobo.


4. You give yourself pep talks just to produce the motivation to go to class and ya know, learn or whatever.


5. When all you can think about in class is how hungry you are and how much you hate people.


7. You actually show up to class one day and you're like, super proud of yourself. 4.0 GPA here we come.


8. The only motivation you have to go to class is the semi-cute boy that sits across from you in your lab.


9. You literally have no remorse when you sleep through your alarm for your 9:30 class. None. At. All.


10. Any type of research paper seems like the hardest thing in the world to accomplish.


11. You finally show up, after a week, and the professor reminds the class of the 100 assignments due by 11:59 that day.


12. You feel the need to skip class and get coffee at the campus Starbucks. And see your professor whose class you haven't been to in at least a week.


But HEY! You just got through a full week of classes only wanting to die like four times! Congrats!

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.
