16 Struggles That All Biology Majors Feel

Biology majors are overworked, over tired, under appreciated, and sick of looking at cells. Even if they don't want to admit it, they have felt these struggles more than once throughout a semester.

1. When you tell someone what your major is and they automatically apologize to you and thank God that they don't have your course load:


2. When it's time to do MasteringBio and you find all of the answers on Quizlet:


3. When your Bio/Chem lab's are 3.5-5 hours long, have the most amount of work and homework, and are only worth 1 credit:


4. When you think that you can memorize every part of the immune system in one night:


5. When you read a biology joke, understand it, and find it humorous:


6. You watch hours of TASTY videos on Facebook during your Bio and Chem lectures because your lecture center is so big and what's the point of paying attention?


7. When it's time to study for a test, you look back at your notes and realize that it's all in Chinese:


8. You are in a constant internal argument with yourself, wondering why you decided to go down this path and why you couldn't just be an English major:


9. You get aggravated when you're the only one out of your friends who's a Bio major because they can't feel your pain and don't relate to you.


10. When going out is so rare that all of your friends make it too big of a deal when you finally do and their goal of the night is to get you trashed:


11. When your professor is foreign, pronounces things weird, and you can't understand them:


12. When you need sleep, a shower, food, and to study for your bio and chem tests all at once:


13. When you finally understand one topic and think that your life is turning around.


14. Having to take notes before you get to class because you couldn't possibly keep up with how fast your professor goes through their slides:


15. You consider dropping out of school more than once per day.



16. You know that, no matter how much you complain, you'll never change your major because you love 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.
