Being in college is not easy by any means. We are finally on our own and forced to be both independent and self-sufficient.

That is not to say that we are perfect, because college students are far from it. We make poor decisions EVERY day. We try to tell ourselves that our actions will never have consequences and always think of the best case scenario, but we know that life definitely does not always work out that way.

Here are 17 totally blatant lies that undergrads tell themselves on a daily basis:

1. I can stay out until 3 AM and still make my 8 AM


2. I will not spend money today


3. I will dress nice to classes this semester

4. I will not procrastinate

5. Calories do not count at night

6. I will get a 4.0 this semester

7. I'm going to do laundry today

8. I will study tonight

9. I'm going to the gym before class


10. I will clean my room

11. I am doing great


12. I don't need to study for my test

13. I get enough sleep

14. I am not addicted to coffee

15. I will start eating healthier

16. I will only go out once a week

17. I am going to get my life together

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.
