13 Reasons You're On The Struggle Bus

We're all aware of the ups and downs college can throw at us. One week you might feel like you work at the library because of how long you've stayed there due to test studying and other weeks you worry that you and your couch are one being because you haven't stopped watching Netflix for 10 hours straight. The struggle is real and even though our parents may not understand the fullness of our struggles, your fellow bus mates certainly do. All aboard!

1. You have an 8 a.m. and it's April. Enough said.

2. You somehow can't manage to go a single day without tripping in public.

3. You're wearing a white shirt so naturally you spill something on yourself.

4. You've missed a certain class for the past three weeks all because of different excuses.

5. Your debit card is literally about to break in half... Aka you're broke.

6. All-nighters are the only way you're going to pass your classes.

7. You have that one class where you literally need a 59.9 so you don't have to retake it.

8. You haven't washed clothes in weeks and you're totally okay with it.

9. You've been sleeping on the couch because your bed has too much stuff on it.

10. You thought you had a Scantron in your backpack and you sit down to take the test and what do you know... No Scantron.

11. You drop your phone for the hundredth time but it cracks on the day that you really need it.

12. You forgot you had leftovers in the fridge and now your room smells.

13. Your life seems to be falling apart but you're making it work somehow.

The worst part about being on the struggle bus is that instead of one little thing going wrong, it's a bunch of little things that go wrong all at the same time. Funny how that happens, isn't it?

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.
