If you are already moved into college, lucky you. Some of us start school late and still have yet to embark on this well..."fun adventure."

Move-In day is a day full of sweat, tears, and maybe even some blood? It is a day full of loving goodbyes to your family and friends and the day where you either meet or reunite with your roommate. You can deny it all you want, but let's be real... move-in day is a lot of work and kind of sucks.

Here is college move-in day told by the characters of "Shameless."

1. Spending your last night at home reminiscing with your family.

2. Waking up early in the morning after being up all night thinking about move-in day.

3. Actually getting ready because you might see some "hot college boys/girls" and you have to look your absolute best... even though you will sweat it all off.

4. Having your morning cup of coffee because you know it's about to be a long day.

5. Saying goodbye to the house that holds your childhood memories within its walls.

6. Finally getting everything and everyone packed into the car.

7. Enjoying the car ride and then having a moment of realization that college is actually happening.


8. Feeling like the drive is taking FOREVER and your siblings are extra annoying. You think you might just lose it.

9. Stepping out of the car and looking at your home for the next four years.

10. Showing up at your dorm room, opening your door and seeing that your roommate is already there.

11. Your Dad, of course, makes a "Dad Joke" to your roommate.

12. Telling your family to get your stuff from the car and having them actually listen for once.

13. Giving your little brother your favorite pieces of clothing to carry up to the room.

14. When nothing fits in the room the way, you want it to.

15. When you finally get it all to fit after hours of playing "Tetris" with furniture.

16. And then you realize you forgot a box in the car...

17. Thankfully your Mom makes it all fit in the shoe box of a room, and of course, she's super proud of herself.

18. Your Dad starts getting emotional because he knows the "goodbye" is coming.

19.The time for the hug finally comes and you have to try and hold the tears back while your sister/brother just let the tears roll. Your Dad just kind of stands there quietly.

20. You make it back to your room, and the feels instantly hit you. Your family left, and it's time to be an adult. Yay, you!

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.
