6 Things College Students Get Excited Over
huffpost.com

Even though we're all grown up and turning into adults, we're still little kids at heart. When we were kids, we used to get excited for trips to Chuck E. Cheese or play dates with our friends.

It's hard growing up and leaving childhood things behind, but there are still things that we enjoy from our past. We still get excited over the little things just like when we were kids.

1. Cartoon movies

Movies have gotten better and better over the years. Even though we're older, we still enjoy them as much as the kids do. It's fun to listen for the adult humor hidden in all the movies.

2. Junk food

In college you try to stay away from the junk food, but we get excited when we indulge in food like Chipotle. Lets face it, we don't have the metabolisms like we did when we were younger.

3. Puppies

Nothing makes us happier than dogs and more importantly puppies. Whenever there are dogs on campus, there is guaranteed to be a swarm of people around, ready to pet that fury ball of joy.

4. Grades

Of course, we're all nervous about our grades. When we have worked our butts off to do well in a class, it's exciting to get recognized for all of our hard work.

5. Free T-Shirts

Nothing gets college students more excited than free stuff, especially t-shirts.

6. Finding change

It's no secret that college students are on a tight budget. We still do get excited when we find spare change lying around the house. You only need 4 quarters to make a dollar and do you know what we can do with a dollar?

7. Footie pajamas

College students are a big fan of bringing back the popular footie pajamas we used to wear when we were 5 years old. They're comfy, easy, warm, fuzzy and they're cute. Everything a college student could want.

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.
