At this point in the semester, you've been moved back for 10 weeks and you've been in class for 8. It's at that point where you seriously contemplate even getting up in enough time to do your hair or makeup. You can forget about the nice clothes and trying to look decent, you won't catch me in anything but leggings, Nike shorts and t-shirts. Once October hits, it's all downhill from here.

The motivation and excitement you once had is now gone and you just can't wait for it to be Thanksgiving so you can eat and be out of school for a couple of days. You probably have these daily thoughts at this point in the semester:

1. Do I really need that participation grade that bad?

2. When your friends ask you to go out, it's a struggle to decide to leave your bed or not.


3. When your alarm goes off for your 8 AM you snooze it a million times and see how close you can get until you really have to get out of bed.

4. You are counting down the days until the next break. PSA there's only 44 days until Thanksgiving break and 58 until Christmas.


5. Your clothes are only t-shirts and leggings or sweatpants at this point.


6. Netflix and Hulu is your favorite procrastination.

7. Going to work is the only time you really see your friends.


8. You complain about how much you hate school in your group chats at least three times a day.


9. And you say you are going to drop out probably ten times a day...


10. You question if you really like your major enough or if you need to change it for the twentieth time.


11. You never see your roommates so you don't know if they still live there or not.


12. Campus food is not okay anymore.


13. Are all my professors getting together and making everything due on the same day?

14. Will this semester ever end?


15. I need to get a puppy.


16. Can I afford this? No? Okay, I'll get two.

17. It will be a miracle if I graduate on time.


18. I'm gonna call mom just to ask her something. *Three hours later*


19. Have I brushed my hair today?


20. When was the last time I cleaned my room? I can't even see the floor.


21. Stressed, stress, and more stress. Isn't college fun?!


22. I need sleep, but homework, so sleep it is.


23. I really miss summer.


24. I should probably go back to the gym...any day now.


25. *Accomplishes one assignment* I am so proud of myself!

26. I can't adult today.


27. I think I will just eat my stress and feelings away.


28. There's only 27 hours, 42 minutes and 13 seconds until Friday. I can do this.

29. Will I ever use this at my job?


30. Are you kidding me?

31. People keep testing your patience and you wonder how much longer you're going to be able to deal with it.


32. You start using Google for every question you have; even if it isn't homework.

33. The only thing getting you through is the semester is more than halfway over, but it is still a daily struggle.

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.

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

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.
