1. Either Staying Up Really Late or Pulling All Nighters

Most of us do it a lot and always regret it afterwards when we want to do nothing else but sleep at 2 p.m. the next day but we’re stuck in class till 4 p.m.

2. Midnight Snacks

I don’t know how many people actually tend to either order pizza around midnight or go out on late night Honey Farm runs, but from what I can tell a fair few of people at Becker College get really hungry around then and it always feels like a good idea until we realize that our wallets are empty by the end of the week.

3. Skipping Classes

Sometimes we get lazy in college and decide to sleep in and skip class. It always feels like a good idea at the time. You tell yourself that missing class is no biggie until you later realize and regret not attending because you totally forgot that something important was due. It happens to the best of us I guess.

4. Not Getting a Coffee

A lot of college students need their coffee, especially if you’ve got early classes. If I ever sleep in, rush to class and forget to get a coffee, I probably won’t operate very well.

5. Procrastinating

The amount of times I’ve found myself or seen others wait till the night before something is due to start working on it when we’ve had over a week to complete it is something I see all too much. Despite how much procrastinating sucks though, everybody still seems to always do it.


Different college students make a lot of different bad decisions that we usually end up regretting. However, the several bad decisions listed above are the ones myself and my friends most commonly make and we know that we probably shouldn’t.

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.
