College As Told By Sigmund Freud

I'm afreud of the accuracy.

College As Told By Sigmund Freud
Nicole Paradis

1. "Being entirely honest with oneself is a good exercise." Wonderful. Like being honest with myself when I say I know next week's exam will be a train wreck.

2. "One day, in retrospect, the years of struggle will strike you as the most beautiful." Does that mean more struggle equals more beautiful? My life will be GORGEOUS.

3. "Where does a thought go when it's forgotten?" When you find the answer, let me know. Geez.

4. "If you can't do it, give up!" You don't have to tell me twice. Time to nap instead of this Stats.

5. "From error to error, one discovers the entire truth." I bet no college students have made any errors in their lives. None.

6. "When inspiration does not come to me, I go halfway to meet it."

7. "America is the most grandiose experiment the world has seen … but, I am afraid, it is not going to be a success." Did Freud predict Trump all the way back then??

8. "All my patience has gone into my work, leaving none for my life." This is pretty accurate, honestly. All out patience goes into school, and then my relationships go... well, you get the point.

9. "Unexpressed emotions will never die. They are buried alive and will come forth later in uglier ways." Well, this isn't a good sign. #stressed.

10. "The great question that has never been answered, and which I have not yet been able to answer, despite my thirty years of research into the feminine soul, is 'What does a woman want?'" I'm going to guess, probably not a text that says "haha and then what? ;)".

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.
