It’s August, and that means summer is over. The 20-something days left no longer count. Now that August is here, it seems like school starts tomorrow. It’s time to frantically order textbooks, make last minute plans with friends before they leave for school and then do it all over again during winter break. Never fear, this list of gifs will help process your feelings going back to school. Save these to effectively communicate to your friends how you’re feeling without having to say a word:

1. Pumped AF

This is one of the unspeakable parts of the summer. Sure, it’s great to float the summer away, make extra money while you have more time to work and then still have time to hang out with friends, but the idea of getting back into a routine is exciting for some students.


2. The storm

You finally enter the structured life once again, and realize you have no clue how you survived this before. It seems like chaos. Projects and papers are due at so many different times that your planner looks like a road map that even you can’t navigate. Some gifs for your troubles:


3. Worth it

Through the chaos, there’s some perks. You get some pretty awesome friends.

4. Halfway there

Finally. Some rest. The first day of winter break feels like a nap fest. The snow is falling, and you have no obligations (other than work), to leave your house.

Mood:

Once you finally get into the routine of napping, it’s time to go back to the routine of planning for another nearly unmanageable semester.

5. Kinda pumped

At this point in the school year, you’re excited to go back for a new semester, even though you’ve had a taste of being school free.

6. The storm: take two

The dread sets in again, as projects and papers surround you. Part of you knew this was coming, but part of you hoped it would be easier than last time. It doesn’t get easier.

You're nearly more stressed than a bridezilla on her wedding day.


7. You did it

You rocked your finals after spring semester, and it’s finally back to the beginning, seeing friends over the summer, getting ready to go through it once again.

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.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

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.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

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.
