The end of the semester is nearing, which means less sleep and more cramming for finals. When you're drowning in papers and math equations, give this article a read to remind yourself of a time when you weren't surviving on coffee and hope. Here are 20 tiny victories that every college student can relate to:

1. When you find a scantron in the bottom of your backpack on test day:

Good thing they come in packs of ten.

2. ... Or when someone in your class has an extra one and offers it to you:

You're the real MVP.

3. When you're circling the parking lot, about to give up on finding a spot and then someone pulls out right in front of you:

Today is going to be great.

4. When you get the good seat in the library for once:

This has literally never happened before.

5. When you Google your class and all the answers to your homework come up on Quizlet:

That was a great decision.

6. When you get an email that class has been canceled:

The best kind of email, especially when you haven't done your homework.

7. When everything that you studied is actually on the exam:

8. When you manage to get to the front of the Starbucks line with enough time to make it to class:

9. When you accidentally sleep in, but still get to class on time:

10. When it starts pouring unexpectedly, but you were responsible and packed an umbrella:

Thanks, Mom.

11. When you make it to the charger before your laptop dies:

Shoutout to the classrooms with multiple outlets.

12. When you haven't paid attention all class and then your professor says the notes are on Moodle:

13. When the library provides complimentary pizza during finals week:

14. ... Or any free food, really:


15. When you finally get the chance to sleep in:

16. When someone in your class sends his study guide in a mass email:

Hi, new best friend.

17. When one of your classes has a take home final:

18. When you have a class with friends:

19. When class gets out an hour early than usual, so you have time to get coffee:


20. And finally, when you finish all your homework and can watch Netflix for the rest of the day:

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.

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.
