College is a very unique time in our lives. We do crazy things. We do pathetic things. We learn to survive on ramen noodles and we take toilet paper off campus. Well, at least I know of a few people that have. You are not alone when you think crazy things or do crazy things in college. There are plenty of other semi-adults out there trying to make it to graduation or just trying to make it to an 8 a.m. When you walk across the stage you will think of all the crazy thoughts you had and you will wonder how you ever made it. There are days that you will eat cereal for breakfast, lunch and dinner. There will be days that you spend your last $5 on Taco Bell or a bottle of wine. In the end, we all get that piece of paper that proves we made it.

1. Oh, I have $10 in my bank account? Well I may need to save it but wait I just got a text about going out tonight.

2. It's okay to wear the same shirt to class that I wore to bed, right?

3. Maybe, I'll go home this weekend and avoid all responsibility.

4. I hope I get a job after graduation.

5. Crap, My mom is calling me, WHO TAGGED ME IN PICTURES ON FACEBOOK?

6. Maybe, I should be more careful with what I put on social media.

7. I sure love ramen, (as you roll your eyes).

8. My professor will totally believe that I overslept for my Friday morning 8 a.m.

9. What the heck was I thinking take Friday classes?

10. Tells your mom your new friends name, that friend gets a request on Facebook.

11. I just won't wash off these black X's from the bar, no big deal.

12. *Wakes up* -- Did someone attack my face with a sharpie?

13. I love that I spent $250 on a book just to read chapter 4 page 3.

14. Why do theater majors always look so happy? Are they in character?

15. I slept through breakfast, lunch and dinner but I am NOT sleeping through the bar tonight.

16. Free T shirts being handed out on campus while I have class? The professor will understand.

17. I wonder how much strippers make?

18. Wow, did I really go to high school with you? *unfriend*

19. I complain about getting to the library at 1 pm and not leaving until 2 a.m., but lets be honest for a second, I spent the whole day procrastinating going.

20. Thousands of dollars are being spent for me to go here, but I'm not even guaranteed a parking spot?

21. My professor spends the whole class talking about irrelevant nonsense, sure hope I pass this test.

22. I hate spending the first class day going over the syllabus, I can obviously read.

23. "Excuse me professor, you did not go over this assignment on the first day, so that is why I failed!".

24. *Finals Week*' -- It is okay, because I think my future spouse is making a 4.0.

25. I'm going back home this weekend just to sleep and eat my parent's food.

26. Employers don't look at GPAs right?

27. Oh okay, I can't take this class until this class is taken, but you are telling me that class is only offered Friday mornings? My parents will understand me taking six years to graduate.

28. I wonder if this class offers extra credit.

29. Why did I complain about the syllabus being read on the first day?

30. I cannot BELIEVE my professor is not emailing me back at 1 a.m. when our assignment is due at 8 a.m.

31. I'm just going to go to bed , I'll wake up early and study.

32. Why did this girl think it was okay to come to class looking cute? I am not sitting by that overachiever.

33. The paper has to be three pages? So that means if my calculations are right then two and a half pages are BS.

34. *Card gets declined* -- I blame school for making me so stressed that I have to spend so much money on alcohol.

35. Sorry, I cannot afford to buy your $250 book that YOU wrote, professor.

36. Maybe, if I bring my professor donuts he will understand why I am an hour late for my hour and a half class.

37. I should have made friends in my Friday morning class because I really need those notes I missed.

38. Oh, the kid who has not been to class in three weeks wants to send a mass email asking for notes? How irresponsible!

39. At least I am doing better than the guy from my hometown who is still trying to become a rapper.

40. I'm going to learn how to cook during college, I refuse to eat out all the time.

41. When my parents ask me what I learned this week I'm just going to tell them that I have learned what not to do in college.

42. That Taco Bell worker always knows what I want. Maybe, I should go buy a cook book..

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.

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.
