9 Signs That You Are Going Through the End Of School Year Slump As Told By April Ludgate
Whitman Writing

With four more weeks of school, and summer just around the corner, it is painful to stay motivated. That feeling of not wanting to go to class, and just watch Netflix instead, is often referred to as the "end of school year slump" and it is very real.

1. You are becoming less motivated to go to class.

What started with one or two skipped classes, has turned into an every other day occurrence.

2. You believe it is unnecessary to go to class because you have good grades.

The struggle is real when your success becomes your excuse.

3. Netflix is becoming more and more entertaining (if that's even possible).

4. Sleep is also really great.

Trust me, you will not wake up for class after staying out late.

5. You procrastinate the really important things that you need to do.

Why do it today when you can do it tomorrow?

6. Spring break becomes a cruel tease.

Nine days without school or work may seem great until you realize you have to go back to school.

7. Summer is so close, and yet so far.

While five weeks may seem like a short amount of time, there are still so many things that you have to complete before summer comes around.

8. You calculate how badly your grades will suffer if you don't do an assignment.

And then do the assignment anyways when you find out your grade will suffer a lot.

9. Lastly, you know deep down that one day you will actually miss going to school.

Too bad you just don't feel that way right now.


So if you are going through the end of school year slump, try your best to stay motivated, and to enjoy the rest of the school year while you still can. If you can't do that, then just don't let your grades slip too badly, and remember that summer is approaching, and you will be able to sit at the pool really soon.

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.
