13 Things Every College Student Should Have On Their Bucket List

See a sunrise in Ocean City

Appreciate the beauty of the nature right at your fingertips.

Learn a new language

No matter what your major or intended career is, knowing another language may be a helpful tool later in life.

Take a class you wouldn’t normally take

College is a time to explore who you are and what you’re passionate about. Branch out and find a subject that you didn’t even know you love.

Study abroad

This is an opportunity that you will never have again. Take advantage of it while you can.

Join a club or organization and be passionate about it

Whether it’s the football team, a sorority or fraternity, or The Flyer, find something that you love and stick with it throughout college.

Learn a new skill

Find something to learn about that is completely out of the ordinary. It could be fun.

Make Dean’s List

You’re in school to learn. Strive to get the best grades you possibly can. This is the last time you will have no other responsibility besides your education. Don’t take it for granted.

Learn how to be self-sufficient

You don’t live with Mom and Dad anymore. Learn how to cook a meal for yourself, clean, and manage your time and money. Become an independent adult.

Get an internship

Get real world skills before you get to the real world. You’ll feel more ready for a career, and may even get a full time job out of your internship.

See every sports team play at least once

Take pride in your school!

Spend the summer in your college town

As you get older, your college town will feel more like your home town.

Give back to your community

A little kindness goes a long way.

Get in the best shape of your life

You have a free gym accessible to you all year. Take advantage of that resource. Not only will you look better, but you’ll feel better too.

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.
