5 Ways You Know...

Anyone in college knows that feeling of the end of the semester. The cramming, the crying, and the countdown to not being able to procrastinate any more. Here is 5 reasons that you know it's the end of the semester- hopefully it will give you a laugh in your time of stress, I know I could use one.

1. The Pep Talks... to yourself.

Everyone has done it, whether it's in their head or to themselves in the mirror- the "you can do it" speech to yourself. It's never really worked for me personally, but maybe that's because I can't take myself seriously.

2. The Sudden Internal Panic

This is when the stress starts to build- when you realize all of the shit you have to do in such a little amount of time, and then you hate yourself because you know you've had more than two weeks to do it... you just didn't.


3. The Constant Flow of Brain Farts

This is the worst... when you're sitting in class the week before exams and you realize about every 5 minutes that you have no idea what the professor said the 5 minutes before that and it just keeps happening and you walk out not having a clue what even happened.

4. Realizing Sleep Isn't a Thing...

I think this meme sums it up perfectly.

5. When the dreaded day comes...

Everyone anticipates it, everyone studies or doesn't study, but the day comes regardless.

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.
