3. When your residents burn popcorn at 2:00 AM on a Tuesday.


4. When someone asks why the cable isn't fixed yet.


5. When you're at a bar and your underage residents walk in.


6. When you successfully mediate a roommate conflict.


7. When it all becomes too much and you break down during Saturday night duty,


8. When you hear your freshman residents complaining about too much homework.


9. When you check the communal bathroom on a Friday night.


10. When you're overly enthusiastic about educating your residents on safe sex.


11. When you're too busy checking in on everyone else and have to remember yourself too.


12. When someone asks how long you spent on the new door tags.


13. When your non-RA friends tell you it's gonna be ok.

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.

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.

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.
