12 Things You Don't Want To Hear When You Come Back From Break

It makes me feel like that picture of Kim K's crying face.

12 Things You Don't Want To Hear When You Come Back From Break
Boston College

Going back to school from a break is tough. Especially after Christmas break. Technically, you should be refreshed and ready to get back to work after such a long time off, but in reality you'll probably never be ready. Going back to reality and the thought of starting work for your classes really just makes us all want to go back to bed for another week. We all know the thought process one goes through when the thought of school comes up, but hearing the following phrases can really make you think your brain is going to explode.

1. "So if you'll look here on the syllabus..."

2. "Are you ready for classes to finally start?"

3. Your roommate immediately starts complaining about anything.

4. "Everyone find a partner in the class and introduce yourself."

5. "All you did was work over break? Didn't you do anything fun?"

6. "From: the Financial Aid Office -- your bill is now available online!"

7. "I know it's only the first week, but your first assignment is due."

8. Someone on Yik Yak forgets we're all in college: "LOL, everyone hope for a snow day tomorrow!"

9. "Can you believe it's already the second semester? The year's almost over!"

10. "For this class I require three textbooks that you have to bring to every single class."

11. "Are you ready to be back? Weren't you sick of being at home?"

12. "Do you have a good schedule this semester?"

Second semester? More like, "When's spring break?"

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.
