5 Ways To Tell That You Picked The Right College

It is time to get ready to head back to college and if you are dreading returning then you did not pick the right college. Here are 5 ways to tell that you picked the right college:

1. You are counting down that days until you return

Whether it is two weeks or two days, you have been counting down the days for months now. It is not about being excited for classes to begin, but about being excited to be back on the campus that you call home. Yes, classes can be fun and exciting but waking up is not always exciting.

2. You are constantly checking to see if your professors uploaded files to your courses

You want to get your syllabuses in order to know when you have exams and if you need to have readings done for the first day of class. Also to organize your books and supplies; if you are like me you like to color code your classes, so having all the course info allows for you to get the color coding done.

3. You are planning your dorm room layout

You have the plan in your head of where you want to hang up things and put your desk and bed. Also you are excited to make the dorm room your own and personalize it in every way possible.

4. You are planning your study schedule

Study schedules are important, especially when you know you have more than one exam in a day. The schedule allows you to know ahead of time and not over stressing when the time comes.

5. You are texting all your friends making plans for when you are all back on campus

Some of your friends are miles and miles away, so the only time that you get to see them is when you're back on campus. You take all the time you get with your friends, because some of them are graduating and then you will never get to see them again.

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.
