12 Thoughts You Pretty Much Have Every Day If You're In College
edutopia.org

Although it may be a new year, there are some things that just don’t seem to change. That means all of the ups and downs of college we’ve become so familiarized with are back. As school is fast approaching, it's time to prepare ourselves for what's to come.

Here are 12 thoughts all college students have:

1. I regret scheduling an 8 or 9 a.m. class.

"It won't be that bad," they said. That is until it really was that bad.

2. How does one survive without caffeine?

Whether it's a grande iced coffee from Starbucks or a 5-Hour Energy shot, we all have our tricks that help us stay awake.

3. I need to take naps on the daily.

Naps aren't just for little kids you know. If anything has gotten me through college so far, it's by taking a nap.

4. I will definitely be hitting the snooze button at every attempt to wake up.

It's hard to face reality, so what's so wrong with putting it off for a few extra minutes?

5. Late night food runs are always the move.

When your late night cravings kick in, the answer is always yes.

6. I’m broke and then I’m really broke.

College has drained my bank account to the fullest. Even when I'm broke I spend money that I don't always have, making me really broke.

7. I’m always on the grind.

There's never a boring moment when you seem to always have something to do.

8. Should I go out the night before an exam?

You know you shouldn't, but it's very tempting to do so.

9. Is pulling an all nighter worth it?

Whether you have an exam the next day or have procrastinated your workload, there's at least one time during the semester where this thought has crossed your mind.

10. I’m always drawn in when I hear the word ‘“free.”

It's hard to turn down free anything. Especially when you're broke, remember.

11. I always have to listen to music when I walk around campus.

There's hardly a time that you won't find me without my earbuds. Listening to music makes your day just that much better.

12. Does this questionable decision seem like a good idea?

We've all been down this road.

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.
