18 Signs That You Are About to Graduate College
theclawonline.com

Graduation season is upon us. If you are experiencing any of these signs, I hate to break it to you, but you're about to graduate college.

1. You’re constantly being asked what you are doing after college.

2. If you don’t have an answer to “the question that must not be asked,” then you can often be found fixing minuscule details on your resume or applying to jobs/grad schools so you finally can have an answer.

3. Any school work is done at the last minute, because at this stage in your life, you are done AF with learning and are ready to move on to "the real world."

4. Having drinks before class has become a common occurrence.

5. You cringe any time someone from your class gets engaged.

6. You go to career fairs and networking events and hate every second of it.

7. You're excited to be close to graduation...

8. But also stressed.

9. The thought of imminent student loans haunt your dreams.

10. You try to spend as much time with friends as possible...

11. And go out as many nights of the week as you can afford.

12. Therefore, "bar etiquette" has been thrown out the window.

13. You're drinking to forget that you’ll be leaving your favorite place in the near future and that big changes are ahead.

14. You can't help but tear up when you pass sentimental spots on campus...

15. And at every chance, you're trying to check items off of your bucket list.

16. You resent freshmen, who get to start from the beginning...

17. And you begin to realize that you are experiencing some moments for the last time.

18. But ultimately, you're proud about all you've accomplished and are excited to see what the future holds.

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.
