Hit sit-com TV show, New Girl, is one of my all time favorite tv shows and I find myself rewatching it's seasons over and over again.

For those of you who do not know the plot to New Girl it simply goes like this: three guys living in a loft in LA post an ad on Craigslist in hopes to find a new loft-mate to help pay the rent. A girl named Jess, responds to the ad and becomes the "new girl".

Nick Miller, one of the three original guys, is a guy from Chicago (Represent!) who is now (sorry, tiny spoiler alert) a bar-owner in LA. He is great at reading other people's emotions, but is terrible at expressing his own. He also enjoys writing zombie-romance novels. I mean who doesn't?. He is also the guy who is still trying to figure out life and where he fits in - just like us college students.

So for all my New Girl lovers out there, this one's for you. 25 Nick Miller quotes that explains college life:

1. When you're writing your benchmark paper and you honestly have no idea what you're writing about, but you're in the zone

2. When homework just keeps piling up and there is no light at the end of the tunnel in sight

3. When your professor gives you amazing feedback on an assignment you half-"butted"

4. When you look at your bank account and realize you really need to budget

5. When you reach that point in the semester where you feel like you can't go on

6. When you use the due date as your motivator and attempt writing a 1,500 word essay an hour before it's due

7. The times you go on a "health cleanse" and give up soda and other drinks

8. ...but you realize you need those things to function


9. When your friends want to party all day everyday, but...

10. The times you tell yourself you don't need to study, but then you get your exam back


15. When you find your motivational song

16. Times when work and expectations get too much and you accept the lie that you're not going places when you graduate, but you take a positive outlook on it.

17. Waking up for those 7 a.m.'s

18. Professor: "Make sure to come to the next class. We will be peer editing your papers before submission."

19. When you start to question your qualifications to be even accepted into this college

20. When your roommates make a cleaning schedule

21. Despite your responsibilities all you want is

22. Attempting to make "healthy" dorm-room friendly meals...

23. When you can't keep up with cleaning the two dishes you own...

24. ...or even keep up with your laundry

25. But in the end it's all worth it

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.
