Finals Week Told By Michael Scott
Business News Daily

Dead Week, as defined by urbandictionary.com is " at any major college or university, the week before finals are administered and most major projects and assignments are due for submission. The late night working and hardcore studying for finals gives the students a zombie like atmosphere, and causes an eerie silence and many blank, unseeing expressions." If you're a college student right now and you're reading this, you know this definition is spot-on with what actually happens. Guys and girls walk around campus with coffee cups, sometimes in both hands, there might as well be fights for the computers and seats in the libraries, and the struggle of calculating the grade you need on your final to pass the class has never been more prevalent. I may have some good news for you though, so just bear with me. The former Regional Manager of Dunder Mifflin-Scranton, Michael Scott, knows every emotion we're going through. You don't believe me, you say? Well, keep scrolling then...

When the Monday of Dead Week is here, and you feel all the motivation in the world.

When all of the motivation you once had is gone within 5 seconds of you having it.

The moment you realize how many finals you have, which equals to how much you really should study.

When you still don't seem to understand a thing your instructor's been teaching, and the final's tomorrow.

The feeling you get the second you walk out of your toughest final of the semester.

When you have to spend one more night in the library, and somebody stole the last seat.

That moment finals week is over, you're able to head home, and not have to worry about any classwork for the next month.

Well everybody, I wish you the most sincere and best levels of luck as you take on the next couple of weeks. When you're stressed out of your mind, just try to remember that everybody around you is feeling the exact same way, and that you are not alone. We are going to get through these next couple of weeks, and Christmas will soon be here.

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.
