As many around are beginning new stages in their lives, new job, new school, new place, millions are joining me in the journey from high school to college. But what will happen? How will this change really happen? Well, here are a few predictions I have for my first time at college!

1. Become best friends with my roommate

I am attending a college where I will have many friends by my side. Yet, there's is no closer connection than to your roommate! Spending time together 24/7, and all of the memories created will make this person closer to you than anyone else!

2. Get better grades.

The transition from high school to college is a rough one, but also a fresh start! This is a new period in our lives. We can start however we would like! This is the time to let the laziness aside, and push to the limit. Improve ourselves and do the best we can.

3. Find THE professor.

A new environment comes with new faces. Not only peers, but mentors. Entering these new classes comes with forming these new relationships. Ones that will last and become references, or even friends to use when it comes to our professional futures.

4. Make new friends.

Even if you're bringing friends with you to college, there's always room for new ones! New classes and new environment means many new faces to get to know. Friends that will help as connections or just a person to talk to in the future!

5. Grow.

As college is an introduction into the adult world, this is the perfect time to grow. Time to mature and become a new self. To be more respectful, responsible, reasonable. This is our time to become the best version of ourselves.

These are just some of the predictions as we start college. As we grow and enter the world, maybe these will occur! Maybe not. Only time will tell.

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.
