"I hate myself" is a sentence I hear either from myself or friends on the daily. Usually multiple times a day.

Why, you ask? Here are 20 reasons why college "hate themselves":

1. Finals

Why do I need to take tests throughout the semester and then take a big test over all the smaller tests at the end of the semester?

2. Teachers

Some of y'all are cool and some of y'all aren't.

3. Class

Mostly just the classes that you can't miss unless you want your grade to be affected.

4. 8 a.m. classes

Way too early.

5. 9 a.m. classes

Not as early, but still early.

6. Early classes in general

Classes shouldn't start until at least 10 AM.

7. Actually just class in general

There are just some (most) days we do not want to get out of bed

8. Just life

Because of every other reason listed.

9. Work

We go to class full time and have to work to afford anything extra that we want

10. Boys/girls

We may be more mature now that we’re in college but we still don’t know what we want.

11. School wifi

It’s. So. Slow.

12. Class, again

We want to stay in bed.

13. Homework, that we may or may not have

It's rarely ever for a grade so why give it to us?

14. Tests

We don't study and even if we do, we forget everything by the time we get the test.

15. We're out late every night.

Studying, or just chilling with friends.

16. We don't pay attention.

We have the attention span of a goldfish.

17. We're forgetful.

When we do pay attention, it usually goes in one ear and out the other.

18. We wear the same outfits multiple days in a row.

Leggings and a hoodie are our go-to outfits.

19. We don't do laundry as much as we should.

Hence why we wear the same outfit a lot of the time.

20. We do stupid things.

We're in college. We live and learn.

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.

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.
