College Struggles For Any Student

Beware and prepare.

College is an amazing yet hella strange time for anyone involved. It's a bit hard to put into words exactly why college is more different than any other time in your life so here we will have the cast of the popular TV show "Teen Wolf" to help us out with their colorful facial expressions. If any of you watch the show, you should know that Stiles and Scott's facial expressions are to die for. So with that, I'm going to try and explain college in a nut shell. Here we go.

1. Oh my god, go to bed. It's 3 a.m.!


You are now living with another person and you are going to have different schedules and habits. It is an unavoidable fact that you will get on each others nerves every now and then with lights and music. Whether it be to turn down the music because of sleep or studying, it is going to happen. It's not the end of the world. You will still love each other in the end.

2. Professors adding on to the work load.

Professors have a tendency to believe that their class is your only class. This being said, anything that you don't accomplish in class, thanks to the kid who won't stop talking about everything and everything, you will get added to your outside class work to prepare for the next meeting time.

3. 8 a.m. classes.

Do I even need to elaborate on this one? You may think you can do an 8 a.m. You may think you can do a 9 a.m. Truthfully, you cannot even do a 10 a.m. most days. Sorry man.

4. What do you mean you ate already?

You're hungry as hell and have been waiting for your friend to text back because you made plans to meet for dinner. They finally get back to you and they say they already ate without you? The betrayal.

5. Bringing your "one more" friend home.

It's college and there are a lot of parties. Some friends get a little too into the party and it's whatever. You're their friend and you bring your intoxicated buddy home with you OK? It happens to all of us at least once.

7. Contemplating your "Plan B" career.

You may have just spent the last six days studying and are running on literally 20 minutes of sleep, but that doesn't matter. You studied hard and strong for days for this huge exam. You pushed and pushed for hours at a time to end up with a 67 percent. Yay! I'm flunking out... You're really not though.

8. Classroom placement blues.

You just finished class at 12 and your next class is at 12:15. No big deal...unless it just so happens that your class is on the exact other side of campus. In that case, it's time to get those legs on the move and sweat like you came from gym class instead of English class.

Of course, there are plenty of other college struggles as you see on social media but these are a few that seem pretty prevalent and widely known. College has its ups and its downs and it's one hell of a ride but, in the end, you're going to have the time of your life. Keep your chin up, and push through my friends!

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.
