1. When you've tried on absolutely everything in your closet and can't decide what to wear.


This also applies to when you look outside and it is snowing and you have no clothes for snow.

2. When your neighbors won't shut up and it's past quiet hours and you're trying to sleep.

Or if you have people above you who stomp around like elephants.

3. When your professor wants you to elaborate more on what you just said.


This probably already took a lot of guts if it was in front of the whole class.

4. When you finish all your homework (or are procrastinating) and are binge-watching Netflix.


Yeah, this probably happens a few times a day. Besides, we're broke. We can't afford real food.

5. When you finally do have time to sit down and have a meal.


But of course, this time was carved out of your schedule because you think you might be losing the Freshman 15 instead of gaining it.

6. When Thanksgiving Break is two weeks away.


Ask any college student... this is truly what we say.

7. When you don't think you have any homework, but then 11:30 p.m. rolls around and you realize you have a paper due at midnight that you haven't even started.

Or when class starts in 2 minutes, you're 4 minutes away and have a quiz that closes before class starts.

8. When you realize finals are two weeks away, but most are due next week.


Usually, these are huge projects and yet you still have to stay until Friday of finals week for the ONLY final due actually on finals week that just happens to be from 7-9 p.m. Why????

9. When you've been in your room all weekend doing homework and watching Netflix.


When you finally have the chance to go home, you usually want to just lay in your own comfy bed, but your mom wants you to go out with her and all your friends...

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.
