1. When you see your best friends and roomies after a month of missing them

They're your rock, the thing that keeps you from pulling your hair and teeth out on those stressful nights of studying. Nothing is better than reuniting with them after such a long time apart.

2. When you're trying to sleep your first night back on campus and your neighbors won't shut up at 3 in the morning

Ah, I love the sound of bass and drawers slamming and people screaming when I have to get up in three and a half hours-- wait, NOT. We've all had people like that, whether they live above you, next to you, or even in your own room! Just try to find sme ear plugs and pop a melatonin, my pals.

3. When you finally have unlimited access to the never-ending junk food on campus

Chicken fingers, french fries, Chinese food, ice cream, soda, pie-- you name it, i can get it at any given time on my campus. And who would rather eat broccoli over a slice of pizza anyways? Maybe I should add work on impulse control to my to-do list...

4. When you have to wake up and walk in the cold to your 8 AM class

It's the first week of classes, first impressions are everything! There's no excuses for not going. My suggestion is to make at least three cups of coffee and make sure you're dressed warmly!

5. When the professor is going over the syllabus

Blah, blah, blah. Same stuff, different professor. We know not to cheat or use our phone in class. We also know you don't want to be here just as much as us.

6. When your assigned an essay on the first day of class

College isn't for the weak, my buds. There's no waiting period to ease back into the swing of things. Essays happen, especially at the beginning of the semester. Don't be like Chris, it won't be the end of the world! If you're stuck, visit your campus writing center, they'll be glad to help!

7. When you've conquered the first week of classes


One down 16 more to go! 16 more tiring, stressful, anxiety-ridden weeks... but we got this, right guys?

8. When you and your besties get to finally hang out on the weekend


Time to let loose, shake your booty, drink something fun, and get your sax ready! The first weekend back is always a wild one-- just make sure to do your homework once you recover!

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.
