An Accurate Description Of The Beginning Of Summer

In This Article:

A year of college is now complete!! As I am writing this, I have been back at home for exactly a week. Here are some things that have come to mind with all my recent spare time and lack of school work to keep me occupied. I am sure most college students could relate to these thoughts that have been running through my mind.

"I definitely brought too much stuff"

Packing up all the stuff from your dorm room is in no way fun. What is even worse is bringing it all back home and attempting to find a place for it all. After looking at all the stuff I took, I am determined to not take as much with me to MSU for sophomore year. My room is currently half dorm decor and half all the other items that were already there. It's a mess.

"Time to catch up on sleep"

Finals wear you out! While technically you cannot make up for lost sleep, there's no harm in trying and allowing yourself to sleep in for once!

"It's nice to have my own room"

My dorm was a nice size. I in no way felt cramped and loved sharing the room with my roommate, but it is nice to not have to worry about splitting a space equally. My room is all my space!

"I miss my college friends"

It's weird not being able to walk down the hall or walk somewhere close by to see your friends. Now, I am one if not more states away from them. Sure we will keep in touch this summer, but it is not the same as being able to see them in person whenever

" I wonder when my friends from (insert any university) will be home"

Finally, now that it is summertime I can see my friends from home! Some are already back while others are currently taking their finals. I am just excited for us to all be back in the same place again.

All in all, being back home for over 3 months is an adjustment to make.

But I am happy to be home and can't wait to have more fun.

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.
