If you remember The Wild Thornberrys from Nickelodeon, you probably remember Eliza's grumpy older sister Debbie. When I was younger I thought Debbie was mean, but as I got older, I realized Debbie is actually one of the most relatable cartoon characters ever. She's cynical, sarcastic, tired of dealing with her quirky family and she has great taste in music. As a college student, I understand Debbie's constant frustration with everyone and everything around her. These are some of Debbie's best moments in The Wild Thornberrys that capture what being a college student feels like.

1. When you have more than one exam on the same day.

2. When you're studying in the library but you know someone is probably going to try to talk to you.

3. When a professor calls you out for getting something wrong in class.

4. When there's nothing else good to eat at the dining hall so you resort to making a cheeseburger (sometimes more than one day a week).

5. When you get bored during class.

6. When you call home and say everything is fine and they actually believe you.

7. When you're about to get into bed but that one friend texts you about some drama that has nothing to do with your life.

8. When you get tired of all those people that try to seem cooler than they actually are.

9. When you're in a class that you need to take in order to graduate but it has nothing to do with your major.

10. When you're at the dining hall and the campus radio station plays your favorite song.

11. When you're having one of those days where you feel like no one is on your side and everyone somehow manages to annoy you.


12. When it's been a long day of classes and activities and you're ready to hide in your room.

Thank you for summing up how I feel about college sometimes, Debbie. Keep doing you, and stay grunge (because no matter what anyone says, grunge is NOT dead).

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.
