Professors... Just stop. Most professors think they are the bomb when they're actually not. Us students, try to make our learning experiences a little more bearable sometimes, but, there are just some professors that seem to make that a little impossible. I don't get how simple things are so hard for them to do. Its basics people. So here are a few things that professors do that really annoy most students if not every student.

1. When they are late.

I'm not even gonna' get started with this one.

2. When they miss class and don't send you an email previous to the class to warn you.

You know, It's not that hard to write an email and send it... Thank you for wasting our time.


3. When they don't use the class hours to explain the material.

The GIF pretty much sums up the feeling.


4. When they think they know it all and they think you don't know half of the things they do.

I know we are there to learn from you, but we are not idiots either. Shout out to half of my professors... #sorrynotsorry


5. When they try to intimidate you because apparently “they have power and you don't.”

Actually, you don't have more power than us, but, if that helps you sleep at night...


6. When the class is over but they keep you in class because apparently “they can and they will.”

I really despite you... As if 1 hour and a half wasn't enough.


7. When they all complot against students and they all give exams for the same day or week.

The feels man... The feels...


8. When they give you homework and never end up collecting it even though you spent all night doing it.

Yes! Alright. I just wasted my sleeping hours for nothing. OK.


9. When they make you study something very different to what actually comes on the exam.

I think you guys like to make us panic and feel unprepared.


10. When you ask a question that they don't know the answer to so they ignore you.

Aren't you suppose to be there to answer questions? When did I get lost?


11. When they get mad because you asked the same question several times because you don't understand their answer.

If I need to be explained 5 times or more, you explain 5 times or more. Isn't that your job?


12. When they talk with fancy, pretty sure, invented words to confuse students.

I'm almost sure some professors invent fancy words just to look superior...


13. When they don't let you use the cellphone in class but they do.

As well as I get distracted using my phone, I get distracted if you're using your phone. So, how about the same rules apply to everyone?


14. When they mess with your grades.

This particularly happens when they don't like you. They subtract points for everything. They even subtract points when the essay is well written, its just that simply, they don't like you. Shout out Prof... Better not.

15. When they read the Power Point.

Please don't... Just don't. Originality never hurt nobody.

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.
