Where coffee is on an unlimited supply and nights at the library are not unusual. It's very important to do your best on these exams as they count for 20-30% of your grade. Here are some tips to ensure you knock all your finals out of the ballpark!

1. Start filling out your study guides weeks before your actual exam. 

You can ill out them as you learn the information and it'll be fresh in your head. This will allow you to be less stressed when the actual exam comes around.

2. Study with friends in your classes and you all can add different perspectives and allow you to remember the information better. 

This also makes studying more fun and will encourage you to do it more.

3. Make some great finals playlists on Spotify for you to jam along to while you are studying. 

Studying is so much better with good music and will keep you on track for all your exams. Allow the music to both pumps you up but also chill you out to prevent you from getting too stressed.

4. Switch up your study place and explore different places on campus. 

This prevents me from getting too bored with one place and allows me to explore the campus a little bit. You should study in both public and private places because they both display different benefits.

5. Have surplus amounts of good food and coffee. 

Allow yourself to order takeout from your favorite restaurant as this is a good reward for your hours of studying.

6. GOOD LUCK!! YOU'RE GONNA KILL IT

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.
