In This Article:

The first week back at college is unlike any other. There's tons of freshman getting lost and seniors panicking about graduation. You can't walk to class without someone yelling about joining a club you've never heard of. It's basically straight up chaos. Here's what most people are thinking:

1. Where am I going??

Even if it's your junior or senior year, you're bound to have a class in a room you've never seen before. Just because you know where the building is does not mean you know how to get to the room!

2. OMG I MISSED YOUUU

*Insert classic girls screaming about how much they missed each other* I'm totally guilty of this....

3. Where's *insert friend's name here*?

What do you mean they went abroad????? oops.

4. They better not start lecturing the first day

Unfortunately, my school doesn't understand the concept of sylly week...

5. I miss my mom's cooking

As much as I love getting to have all of my meals with my friends, nothing beats my mom's meatballs and sauce.

6. I need more Command Hooks!

You can never have too many, trust me.

7. Why are people so loud??

Ahhhh the joys of dorm-living. Just because you and your roommate want to get 8 hours of sleep doesn't mean someone isn't going to play music at 3 a.m..

8. Who's throwing?

No, nothing is physically being thrown around, but you know people are eager to get back out there.

9. I know I learned this last semester, but....

Summer has this magical ability to erase a few months of studying, gotta hate cumulative material.

10. I miss my dog already

This might be the most common phrase I hear. This is usually preceded by an Instagram story captioned "The hardest goodbye".

11. I'm really going to stay on top of my classes this semester!

We say it every time, and who knows? Maybe this semester will be different and I'll be on top of things at least through midterms.

We're all in this together, have a great semester!

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.
