1. You have been packed for at least two weeks already.

Or if you're like me, you had part of your stuff packed up since you came home for the summer.

2. You're looking forward to seeing your friends again.

And also to making new ones!

3. You miss the little things, like staying up late with your roommates or walking around campus.

A late night stroll always cleared my head when I was overwhelmed with everything (trust me, the feeling of being overwhelmed will hit you many times in college).

4. You are planning out how your dorm will be decorated

Every holiday and season comes with its own set of decor.

5. You have started buying your school supplies and books.

Cute planners, notebooks and pens for the win!

6. You have been counting down the days since late June.

Cabin fever hits around that time, usually.

7. You can't wait to see your favorite professors and faculty members.

They weren't just your professors, they were also your families, friends and support systems.

8. You miss hanging in the dining hall every day

The cafeteria-esque atmosphere is so lively and fun! Seeing all of my friends in one central location is the absolute best part of it all.

9. You can't wait to go to classes and learn about your favorite subjects again!

Yes, I am in fact, looking forward to studying, learning and becoming an expert in my field.

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.
