8 A.M.s As Told By Gossip Girl

Signing up for it seemed to be a good idea. "I'll just get it out of the way and have the rest of my day open for doing homework or hanging out with friends," you thought. Well, you thought wrong. Taking a class at 8 a.m. is a grave mistake– here is how they usually go.

Walking into the classroom.

When that one girl opens her mouth.

The one who is way too cheerful and bright and still hasn't picked up on the subtle hints you drop that now is not the right time for small talk.

Hearing your name called. Because of course this class takes roll.

Looking up at the clock when you finally hit your breaking point, only to realize that you're only halfway through the class.

And then having to give yourself a pep talk every five minutes for the rest of class.

That look your professor gives you when you can't seem to string your words together into a coherent sentence.

Realizing there's only five minutes left.

Just try to stop me from packing up my things. I dare you.

Finally getting to leave.

You're free, but at this point, you're too exhausted to even celebrate.

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.
