12 Things To Do Before Going Back To College
Research Digest

1. Binge watch all your favorite TV shows.

now, then you won't find yourself watching reruns an hour before those exams.....maybe.

2. Eat as much home cooking as possible.

Cafeteria food.......*experiences waking nightmare*

3. Cuddle with all your pets for hours on end.

I know you'll still miss them a trillion times over when you're away, but this'll help just a little....possibly...

4. Hangout with your hometown friends once last time.

Go on crazy adventures! Be free! Have fun! You have to make up for all those months that you'll be apart. So get you better get started!

5. Spend time with your family while you can.

If you spend lots time with them now, then perhaps going away will be easier and they won't miss you QUITE as much when you leave. I am very skeptical however....

6. Put in one last effort to get a summer tan.

Well, it didn't work the first three months you tried, but hey, it's worth another shot.

7. SLEEP. IN. EVERY. DAY.

.............Wait. Do you hear that noise?....Me neither. Isn't peace and quiet beautiful?

8. Do all your FREE laundry.

And, if you're very clever, you might even be able to trick your mom into doing it for you. HALLELUJAH!!!!

9. Go shopping!!....for your dorm room.

When you realize that the only reason that you're shopping is because you're going back to college soon, it puts a bit of a damper on the fun. But HEY!! It's still shopping!

10. Get a new shiny alarm clock in anticipation of the terrorizing nightmare known as 8 o'clock classes.

*shivers in fear*

11. SPA DAYYYYY!!!


You need at least one to prepare for all the stress and tense shoulders you'll be experiencing in the next few months.

12. NOT.......DO.........ANYTHING.......

Honestly though....need I say more?...

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.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

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.
