15 Signs You're Such A Freshman

You feel super cool and grown up when you pass a campus tour.

Freshman year is almost as awkward as seventh grade with the added pressure that you're supposed to be an adult and know what you're doing with your life. I'm pretty sure we're all failing at that. The first step to succeeding at freshman year is accepting your status; we're at the bottom of the totem pole now. If you're a freshman, these are 15 things that just really define you. It's okay, everyone's been there...right??

1. You feel like you know your way around, but you still use maps just in case


2. You're super eager about everything and you know it (and you're embarrassed about it)

3. You're uncomfortable around upperclassmen because no matter who they are, they're so much cooler than you

4. You know that you know nothing

5. You look forward to not being a freshman anymore

6. And not living in a dorm

7. You're following a ton of people on Instagram that are supposedly in your class but you have no idea who they are

8. So, you never know where you know people from


9. ...And you celebrate when you remember someone's name

10. Eating in the dining hall takes more mental and physical energy than it's worth

11. You're really savoring the moment because you know your grades will never be this good again

12. You feel super cool and grown up when you pass a campus tour

13. You still haven't found your study spot so you can't focus and it stresses you out

14. You still have the unmotivated aspect of senioritis without the cool-factor, and you can't figure out how to resolve it

15. You get FOMO seeing your high school friends that go to college together hanging out

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.
