Countdown To Winter Break: As Told By 'How I Met Your Mother'
thought catalog

As the semester comes to an end, everyone is super busy and stressed out. We have exams, papers, research projects, and finals to study for! Along with work, how do we find time to relax?

Netflix. Netflix keeps us relaxed. And boxed wine! Anyway, I'm on a huge How I Met Your Mother kick, and I thought I'd share a funny collaboration with you to lighten the final blues. Enjoy!

Sitting in class all semester.

You know what I'm talking about.

Giving your oral presentation you wrote the night before.

And you forget something and look to your group for help.

When someone asks you for your notes.

Haha. No.

Sitting in your last class of the semester.

At this point, we just want it to be over with.

Walking into the final like...

Because you're so jazzed for winter break! Hello, Tennessee!

Waiting for the final exam you studied so hard for.


You obviously know all the answers to every question, even though you haven't seen the exam yet.

After you read the first question on the final.


And you know nothing after studying your butt off, and sitting in class for four months.

When you don't know the prof's name for the class survey at the end of the semester.


This hasn't happened to me, but I've known people who never knew their professor's name. Weird? ...Hey you, what a great 8/10 performance you gave the past few months! Go you!

Then you remember you work all winter break.

Because you are worth more than mac and cheese every day.

Realizing next semester is in a month.

Too soon?

Not to mention the intervention...


I'm just kidding! No intervention!


Just remember that when you're stressed, find ways to relax and cool off after a long day! How I Met Your Mother is a wonderful show to watch to wind down in the evenings. Finals week is almost upon us, so lets rock it! We are all one step closer to achieving our goals! Let's get out there and make a difference! Be the change we wish to see in the world! Happy post-thanksgiving week, everyone!

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.
