Changing Your Major as Told by Zac Efron

In college, we spend hours upon hours stressing over things like chemistry tests, term papers, and picking the perfect party outfit. But if there's one thing that will stress any college student out more that all of those things combined, it's the thought that all of us have had at least once in our lives: "Should I change my major?"

Changing your major can be scary, but it helps to know that others before you have gone through the same struggle and confusion. As someone who truly believes Zac Efron is a total college kid trapped in the body of a movie star, I figured, who better to explain what changing you major (read: hell) is like? So, here are steps of deciding that changing your major is right for you told by Zefron himself:

So, you've picked a major, you've earned some credits towards it, and in general college is going great.

Then out of the blue, it hits you.

You think maybe, just maybe, you might be doing the wrong thing. You think you should maybe change your major.

The idea won't get out of your head. Soon you start to realize that this decision is a much bigger deal than you first realized and will take a lot of thought. I mean, your whole future could change, right?

You spend time thinking about it and spend nights going back and forth until the circles under your eyes are darker than you ever thought possible.

But, you finally decide that you think it is the right decision. And even if it's not, you're doing it anyway.

You spend hours reworking your schedules, calling advisors, and trying not to have a break down as you second guess yourself over and over.

You try to explain to everyone (including your parents) why you decided to do this but it just doesn't work.

Wondering why you went through all this and didn't just start with this major in the first place.

Occasionally the thought of your old major creeps back into your mind.

And you think about all the wasted credits that now fall into nothing but the "electives" category on your transcript.

But you're happy and you know you made the right decision.

Thanks Zac. We feel you.

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.
