The Infinite Struggle Of Going To 8 A.M. Classes, As Told By 'The Avengers'

Hearing your alarm every morning and wondering, "how many more times can I hit snooze before I NEED to get up?"

Here is a day in the life of a student with 8 a.m. classes every single day of the school week.

Hearing your alarm go off and wanting to smash your phone into a million pieces

No matter what alarm tone you chose, that sound has now become the sound that fills your worst nightmare. After five seconds, your eardrums are bleeding, your head is pounding, you've lost your phone somewhere in your sheets. This is a disaster. STOP. BEEPING. STOP. STOP. STOP. Now snooze...

Running to get to class on time

*Checks clock* 7:57 A.M.

You spend a little too long in the shower or in bed in the morning, so you get to do a super cute speed walk/run to your first class of the day. A lovely way to get a little exercise in.

Making it on time AND remembering your homework

You make it class with 17 seconds to spare. Today is looking up. You turn your paper in and smile at your professor confidently. You got this.

Feeling bad for the people that come in late because we've all been there

The walk of shame to the front of the classroom where the only open seats are...it's the worst.

Forgetting everything you know because it's too early

...Today is not, in fact, looking up. You are about to take a pretty serious L, or so you think. You try to retain as much info before you get too far behind. Take notes and you'll be fine.

Actually remembering the info after a few minutes

This isn't too bad. After your brain has woken up, things start to come back to you. The day is back on track.

Seeing people less motivated than you because again, it's EARLY

Some mornings, getting out of bed isn't the biggest struggle. It's paying attention. It's nice to see someone else on the same page that you are sometimes.

Class is almost over, and you're feeling pretty good

You did it. You woke up. Yeah, you hit some bumps along the way, but you should be proud of yourself. You got up and you are doing your best. Nothing is getting in your way today.

Sometimes, the professor even dismisses class a few minutes early

To those professors, God bless you.

Coming to the realization you have to do it all over again tomorrow 

...Enough said

In reality, though, having 8 A.M.'s isn't as awful as it seems. Get plenty of rest and you should do just fine.

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.
