The student experience told by Rick from "Rick and Morty."

October 4, 2015 was perhaps the worst and best day of last year. This day happened to be the release date of the last episode in Season Two of the Show of the Year, maybe the world, perhaps even the intergalactic universe. As fans of "Rick and Morty" may know, the next season had been predicted by Mr. Poopy ButtHole to be released no sooner than a year and a half from the October date. However, the latest update has revealed that the beloved grandpa Rick and his grandson Morty may be making their reappearances by the end of this year. Wubalubadubdub!

As I sat in my room analyzing the previous episodes and predicting the future ones, I realized that we are just like "Rick and Morty." Aside from the intergalactic space travel, aliens and super-genius mad scientist part of the show, Rick Sanchez is the embodiment of students everywhere.

1. When you were certain it was only 10 p.m. when you last checked, but someone tells you it's already 3 a.m.


2. Dealing with that one friend who somehow, miraculously, does not procrastinate and is always early to everything.


3. Trying to figure out why your college tuition does not cover nearly enough food for you to survive.


4. When you get to the party and all your friends look as badass as the Smiths.


5. No one else at home means your inner rockstar makes its appearance.


6. When you try to convince your friends that they should stop studying and go have fun with you.


7. Low-key being the dancing machine and bringing joy to the lives of other stressed kids.


8. Being the one misanthropic downer while the rest of your friends are dressed up and having fun.

9. The last day before finals and you have yet to start studying.


10. When you are finally done with school and "Rick and Morty" episodes for the year.

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.
