18 Feelings Every College Student Has At Some Point

The struggle of the typical college student may seem trivial to most people who have entered the so-called "real world," but our lives are pretty rough. No matter which college we attend, we all share an inner fire for our majors, our organizations, and midnight ramen. We've all had the breakdowns in the library during finals, the questioning of whether going out is even worth putting on real clothes, and the Chipotle cravings that never seem to leave, no matter how many burritos you convince yourself it's ok to have.

Here are some feelings we've all felt at one point or another. For better or worse, they're what make us the college kids that we are, and we couldn't be happier about that.

1. When it's chicken finger day in the dining hall...


2. But then you see the line and you're like...


3. When you're starved, but your friends already ate...


4. That one freezing classroom that 's like...


5. Seeing freshmen head out the gate in 20-person packs like...


6. Trying to look presentable for an 8 a.m...


7. Walking out of a two and a half-hour lecture like...


8. When all your friends go home on the weekend...


9. Facing responsibility like...


10. When you're at the library cramming and your friend keeps talking...


11. When all your friends are going out, but you have to study...


12. Ordering food and retreating back to your room...


13. When you realize midterms are coming up soon...


14. Finals having you like...


15. When there's an Open House and the caf food is on point...


16. Stepping off campus...


17. Explaining your relationship like...


18. Trying to graduate like...

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

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.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

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.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

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.
