5 Dr. Seuss Quotes To Help Guide You Through College

1. "You're off to great places, today is your day! Your mountain is waiting...so get on your way!" - Oh, The Places You'll Go!

This Dr. Seuss quote relates to exactly what you need to be doing and feeling in college. You go to college so that you can do great things and become the person that you want to be. You might have to cross some mountains to get to that places, but you'll never achieve your goals if you never start.

2. "Unless someone like you cares a whole awful lot, nothing it going to get better. It's not." - The Lorax

During your time in college, you have the ability to shape the environment around your university to whatever you want. If there is a cause you are passionate about, start an organization to help it. If there is already an organization there to help it, join it and work hard to make a change. You have to care an awful lot to make a difference in this world and college gives you a lot of opportunities to be that change.

3. "Today you are you, that is truer than true. There is no one alive who is you-er than you." - Happy Birthday To You!

This quote rings true because you have to always remember to be yourself. You might find yourself trying to act like someone you're not, or do things that you don't wanna do, but you gotta remember that there are not other yous, and if you are trying to be someone else, then who's going to be you?

4. "You have brains in your head. You have feet in your shoes. You can steer yourself any direction you choose." - Oh, The Places You'll Go!

While there are a lot of decisions that you need to make in higher education, I am confident that you will make the right ones. You have the ability to take yourself wherever you want to go and you can become the person you want to be.

5. "It's not about what it is, it's about what it can become." - The Lorax

You can take anything, even an idea and use it to change the world.

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.
