40 Thoughts All Girls Have While Packing For College

Ah, the dreaded experience of packing for school. We all love college, but the one thing we can't stand is the packing process. Not only is it stressful, but packing up your whole life and trying to cram everything into the trunk of your car is physically, mentally, and emotionally draining. Here are some thoughts we've all had during this grueling time of packing for college.

1. Okay, time to pack for school...where do I start?

2. Pinterest, help me pack.

3. Definitely should have started packing sooner than a week before I leave...

4. Seriously though, how am I supposed to pack my whole life into bags?

5. "Mom? Can you help me pack?"

6. I'm an adult. I can do this. If I can survive college, I can survive packing for it.

7. Okay, what's the best way to pack all this stuff?

8. Let's make a list of all the things I need to bring.

9. T-shirts, sweatpants, sweatshirts, shorts, jeans, sweaters, socks, shoes, dresses, pants, cardigans...that's just the clothes.

10. This is the one time when having too many clothes is a bad thing.

11. How would the Kardashians pack up all of their clothes? They must have more clothes than even I do.

12. Does this still fit me?

13. Will I really need this?

14. Of course, when I say I won't need it and I don't bring it, there will definitely be a time when I do need it, so I'll just bring it in case.

15. I guess I'll just buy whatever I forget when I get there.

16. How many t-shirts do I need? Am I going to wear them a lot?

17. Let's be real, the only thing I'm going to wear is t-shirts.

18. Don't forget the straightener!

19. When did I even buy this?

20. Oh, there's that shirt I thought I lost...

21. I have no idea when I'm going to wear this, but I'll just bring it.

22. 1 pair of leggings, 2 pairs of leggings.

23. Don't forget the extra contact lenses.

24. 3 pairs of leggings, 4 pairs of leggings.

25. I guess six pairs of socks are enough; I mean, I'll do my laundry once a week right?

26. And one more pair of leggings for good luck.

27. How do I fold clothes again?

28. I'm making improvement, narrowed it down to my favorite 20 sweaters.

29. Is my closet going to be big enough for all of my clothes?

30. Will I need a toothbrush holder? If so, can't forget that.

31. What about shower shoes? Is that still a thing?

32. Is my brain physically capable of remembering all of this?

33. Packing for college is honestly harder than college itself.

34. Is there a service that can just pack all my stuff up for me? I should invent that.

35. Don't forget my wallet, that would be bad.

36. Okay, so I have all of my clothes laid out. Now what?

37. Where do I put all my clothes? Suitcases? Garbage bags?

38. I think I've done my job, now it's time for Mom to put everything in it's place. She's basically a professional packer.

39. All right, clothes are packed. I feel accomplished.

40. Oh, I still need to buy my textbooks...

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.
