Despite what anyone may tell you, your first semester freshman year is a whirlwind of emotions. No matter what school you go to, these feelings of stress, freedom, relief, and fun will be felt unanimously. Luckily, the cast of The Office has apparently also gone through some similar times...


1. When the week has finally ended!

Thank God! Time to let loose and have some fun...

2. When your teacher announces that you have yet another paper due by the end of the week...

You have got to be kidding me.

3. When you have spent more money in your first semester than you ever have in your entire life

"In my defense I was left unsupervised."

4. When you have an assignment due at 11:59 and you haven't started it yet

Well, you win some, you lose some.

5. When you wake up too late to eat breakfast before your 8 a.m.

Sometimes you just gotta do what you gotta do.

6. When you are doing a presentation on something that you could not care less about

Who could possibly care about what I am saying right now!

7. When you go to bed at 3 a.m. and have to be up at 7 a.m.

I don't know why I do this to myself.

8. When you receive a care package from home... and it includes snacks!

Wink wink mom and dad...!

9. When your professor compliments your work

Please no photographs. I'll be signing autographs later.

10. When you can go to sleep at a reasonable hour

Praise Jesus. He knows I needed this.

11. When you're willing to do anything to avoid the freshman 15

Trust me... it is real and you must do everything you can to stop it.

12. When your whole friend group gets dressed up and you try to take a group photo...

Everyone smile on 3. 1..2...3..

13. When your mom wants you to own every article of clothing with your school's name on it

Sweatshirts and tee- shirts and sweatpants, oh my!

14. When you have 3 tests, 2 midterms, 2 papers, and a speech due all in one week...

When is fall break again?

15. Mandatory "fun" freshman activities

I have enough fun on my own, thank you.

16. When your teacher cancels class

Honestly, this has to be the best feeling in the world.

17. When you overcome awkward freshman ice-breakers without saying anything too cringeworthy

Yes, I can do this. Bring on the friendship.

18. When you and your roommate manage to keep the room clean for more than 24 hours

It's honestly some kind of miracle.

19. When the dining hall food is not looking too great...

Cookout run anyone?

20. When you can finally go home and see all of your friends and family

Reunited and it feels so good!


Being a freshman in college has its ups and downs, but this is certainly the beginning of a great four years! I can't wait for next year so I can do it all over again...

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.
