5 Signs You Are Graduating In May

1) People are constantly asking you what your plans are after graduation.

Post college plans are a constant topic of discussion in the final months of your college career. Everyone wants to know what your big plans for after graduation, and half the time you just want to give them an honest "I don't know". You may have some plans in the works, but they always seem to be changing.

2) You spend all your free time scrolling through job postings, applying for said jobs, and updating your resume

Any free time you have, you find yourself looking for jobs. It almost becomes more entertaining that scrolling through social media. But you also find yourself constantly updating your resume and applying for all of these jobs, which is just as stressful as it sounds.

3) You can't wait to be done with school, but also never want it to end

As excited as you are to be done, you also can't believe your college years are almost over. You are super excited for no more homework, but you will also be leaving behind some great friends and even better memories.

4) Seeing other people figuring out their lives stresses you out.

As happy as you are for your friends figuring out what their next step is, it is also extremely stressful. You are just as eager to find your path, and it can diffiult watching everyone else do it while you are fumbling along.

5) You are not entirely sure you are ready for the real world

So long are the days of rolling out of bed and heading to class in sweats. College is a great deal of work, but can also be a very relaxed atmoshpher. So after graduation rolls around, most college students will have to adjust to the much different way of living. We will figure it out eventually, but that doesn't mean we will be ready for it when it happens.

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.
