There are just some things we all don't like about college, whether we can control it or not.

1. Laundry

Giphy

We have three two working washers in my dorm building and five working dryers. For the whole building.

2. Food Lines

Giphy

If you go to Ithaca College and try to eat breakfast lunch and dinner on the hour, I pray for you. The omelet line is long, the taco line is long, all the lines are long.

3. The food itself is... questionable

Either you like it, or you don't, there is no in-between.

4. The weather

It's ice cold in Ithaca 75% of the year and boiling hot the other 15%.

5. It's hard to make new friends halfway through the semester

I'm pretty sure I only knew four people max in each of my classes.

6. Grades

WHERE ARE THEY? WHY CAN'T I FIND THEM? WHAT'S MY GPA?

7. Buses home

(For those without a car) The coach buses home are a blessing and a curse, either you get a seat to yourself or you're sitting with a complete stranger for 6 hours straight.

8. Scheduling for the semester

*When HomerConnect crashes at exactly your registration time*

9. Every class is full

*When HomerConnect finally connects and all the classes and backups you planned for are full *

10. Loud people at night

I live in a dorm and I swear to God I don't need to hear you singing High School Musical's "Breaking Free" at 2 am when I have an 8 am to get to.

11. Cost of college

$$$

12. Party culture

The guys outside Upper Quads that bellow "Yeeah" to each other, the sounds of guys and girls throwing up.

13. No decorating

I got a door violation and I'm bitter. Alternatively: Just let me decorate for Halloween please!

14. All your essays are due at once

At the end of Finals week you'll have written 8 essays, taken 3 tests, and still have to pack for home and maintain a social life.

15. People who don't raise their hand in a hands-raising class

Sorry, just, there was one guy in one of my classes that was super obnoxious and would blurt out whatever he wanted whenever he wanted and... It got on my nerves.

What a bitter post, sorry not sorry. Sometimes you just have to vent ya know?

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.
