As summer comes to an abrupt close, kids all over the world are met with these 10 thoughts.

1. "There's no way school starts in SEVEN DAYS!"

Summer just started like yesterday!

2. "But I've barely even started my summer reading!"

You mean to tell me that I'll have to spend half my time reading for my last week of the summer? Nope, there's no way I'm doing that.

3. "I guess I'll have to pick out a new backpack...that's kind of fun."

I can NOT keep using my old one. Glitter was so last year.

4. "I only have six more nights to sleep in? That sounds like a nightmare."

A kid needs their beauty sleep!

5. "If summer's almost over, that means that the warm weather is next to go."

As much as I love building snowmen and drinking hot chocolate, I'm not ready for the cold to come back!

6. "And don't even mention homework!"

How am I supposed to have time to do anything fun with homework to do, books to read, projects to finish, and tests to study for every single night!

7. "I guess I'll get to see my friends every day again, but recess doesn't last forever."

If school was all recess, I wouldn't have anything to complain about!

8. "What if I don't like my teachers... or what if my teachers don't like me?"

9. "What if my best friend isn't in my class this year?!"

At least having a class with my close friends will help the day go by a little faster. Without them, I don't know who I would pick for my project partners!

10. "Winter break better come fast..."

I can't wait for my next break to start!

Little did we know that now we would give anything to go back to the days where getting through the school day was all we had to worry about. You're only young once, enjoy it while it lasts!

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.
