I'm getting desperate.

15 Situations I'd Rather Be In Than Studying
Minty White

It's spring semester, finals are rapidly approaching, and there is one thing on everyone's mind: How am I going to fit in all the time I need to study for my finals? It's so beautiful outside that it's hard to concentrate. And even when the April showers are coming down and the sky is gloomy and dark, it's still hard to concentrate. The sheer pile of information you are trying to re-cram into your brain is enough to make you want to give up. So I present to you, the 15 things I'd rather be doing than studying.

1. Go to the park.

Nothing like the sweet sound of birds in the trees and a little fresh air, am I right?

2. Go to the beach.

Even better than the park. Salty waves, the feel of sand between your toes and the warm sea breeze are guaranteed to take your worries away.

3. Go to the movies.

A little cinematic entertainment will get you in the perfect mood to procrastinate.

4. Eat everything in my pantry.

I may be uncomfortably full and poop nonstop for the next three days, but I'd still rather do that than study.

5. Get my armpits waxed.

Surely the pain of having my armpit hairs ripped out by wax and tape is less than the pain of studying all night long.

6. Pick my nose.

Good ol' boogers. They're always there for me when I need them.

7. Hit my funny bone.

Hitting my funny bone is so funny, said no one ever!

8. Sniff a dirty diaper.

A dirty baby butt is more tolerable than studying for my finals.

9. Be chased by a rabid squirrel.

What a cute little AH! AH! DON'T EAT ME, NO!

10. Get stuck between two stinky people on public transportation.

The bus ride will end. Studying is forever.

11. Get lemon juice in my paper cut.

It can't possibly hurt that ba-- OK yeah, that hurts. That really hurts. Oh, it's starting to sting. I don't think I can finish the rest of my day. I'm in too much pain to use a pencil.

12. Spend a day in prison.

I'm sure these lovely people are just misunderstood.

13. Contract chicken pox.

Mmm, itchy. I don't have time to study. I'm too busy scratching.

14. Set off a car bomb. With me in it.

15. Die.

You've got it. I'd rather be dead than studying. Summer can't come fast enough.

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.
