6 Classes College Students Take Every Semester

Even though we have different majors, we take the same types of classes

It's the start of the semester, and everyone is excited to see how their classes will be, and whether or not they'll enjoy them. Even though there are so many different majors out there, every semester everyone takes 5-6 classes. Here are the different types of classes that college students take every semester.

1. The one you hate

Sometimes you know when you sign up for it that you'll hate the class, sometimes on syllabus day, or sometimes it takes an exam or two to find out that this one class just isn't for you. No matter when in the semester this occurs, this class will inevitably be the one that you complain about from then on out, and there's nothing that will stop you from doing so.

2. The GE

No matter how long you've been in college, you somehow still have General Education classes that you need to complete in order to graduate. Whether or not you enjoy the class, it is a hurdle that you have to jump in order to get that degree.

3. The one you love

Contrary to the one that you hate, this class is the one that makes you excited for your future job, and you tell everyone who you can get to listen that this is the best class that you've ever taken.

4. The one that you don't know why you're taking

Every semester, there's one class that's just more hassle than it's worth, but I never end up dropping it. Sure, the assignments suck and you don't like the professor, but at the point that you would drop it, you've already done half of the work for the class. If your grade isn't bad, then tough it out and just be thankful that you made it through.

5. The one that you struggle to attend

Maybe the class starts at 8 a.m., attendance isn't required AND the professor is a boring lecturer? You probably know why you don't want to go, and whether or not you actually like the material that is being covered, you can't force yourself to leave your room to go to class. Every time you have to think about it, you dread it.

6. The easy one

If you take more than 15 credit hours, chances are that at least one of your classes is one that you hope is a breeze, and has little to no work.

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.
