The 5 Things Everyone Feels During Finals Week

Because all bad things (finals week) suck, but will eventually come to an end

1. Stress. Lots and lots of Stress

It'd honesty inevitable that anywhere from 1 to 6 cumulative exams will make you feel some type of way, and usually that way isn't good. From cramming the night before, to realizing you have half an hour to relax between two massive tests (my reality), the stress is bound to be there.

2. Hungry (and willing to eat anything)

Calories don't count during finals week, right? When you're studying at all hours of the day, and need to sneak a meal in, you'll eat basically whatever is easiest to get. This goes along with the stress too- you just eat more when you're taken over by stress, it's just how things work

3. Exhausted

No amount of coffee, no number of energy drinks, and no amount of power naps can stop us from feeling full exhaustion throughout the entire week. Believe me.

4. Comfort

Honestly, this is only because every moment spent in the library happens in the most comfortable attire. There will be people shamelessly walking around in pajamas no matter what time of day it is

5. Relief

This is only to say after hell week ends, but it really does happen. Being done with a full semester and studying for hours on end gets to end at some point, and it really does feel good. As finals week has just begun, and the end seems nowhere near, take this as a time to remember that the relief you'll feel when it's all over is beyond worth it.

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.
