College Move In From First-Year to Junior Year

It's still exciting and dreadful, no matter what year.

College Move In From First-Year to Junior Year

College move in whether you're a First-Year or junior coming around for your third move in, it's always exciting and nerve wracking. You're First-Year, you're coming in knowing maybe one or two people already but not actually knowing much else on where you're living and who your roommates are. But coming back for your junior year, your third move in, it can be just as exciting, but for a few different reasons.

As a First-Year, you may not be as comfortable and you might even be asking yourself if this can be your home for the next four years, or if this was the right decision. You might not know your way around campus, and you might even hate all the core classes you're registered for. You might have only had a few text message interactions with your roommate, and then you have the awkward meeting as you both get to your room moving in. But coming in for your freshman year, it's a whole new chapter in your life that you'll embark on.

Now as a junior, it's a little bit different. You already know all about your roommates, you most likely chose them. You already know where you'll be living, and you've also most likely already seen the inside of your apartment. You're hopefully deep within your major, loving your classes. You should know your way around campus pretty much with your eyes closed, and know all the shortcuts. Coming back as a junior, you're gung-ho on seeing all your friends and catching up on how their summers were even before you're completely unpacked into your new apartment for a year. Now a junior, you might know your way across campus, and it might feel like the same old, but every year is a new year. It's as equally exciting.

But there are a few things that will always be there same whether you're a freshman or a junior moving in.

1. You'll be waiting in ridiculously long elevator lines to bring your stuff upstairs, or you'll carry everything up many flights of stairs.

2. The parking lots will always be madness.

3. Everyone always seems to be moving at the same time, and you feel cramped up on everyone.

4. There is always a sense of excitement for what new adventures and journeys this new year will give 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.
