Heading Into Your Final Semester Of College, As Told By 'Saved By The Bell'
NBC Productions

You are one semester away from graduating. Entering the real world, getting a real job and starting your real life. Though the best seasons of "Saved by the Bell" feature high school antics, they still somehow have the perfect reaction to realizing you're going into your final college semester.

When the email comes through saying you're approved for graduation

And all your friends get it too

Rewarding yourself for 7+ semesters of hard work

Not taking any sh*t from guys at the bars anymore, or even wanting their attention

Cleaning up your social media for potential employers

Coming back from a job interview that you thought went well but from experience you know you'll probably never hear back

Enjoying your last few months of not having to pay for your gym membership

Seeing freshmen dressing up and going out 3 times a weekend and neglecting their studies

Having a few too many girls' nights

Fixing your hair to go to the bar wearing Moccasins and a dirty sweatshirt

But dancing the night away with your friends and not caring one bit what anyone thinks

Jotting down every professional's email at the job fair

Seeing your dream job posted and then seeing it requires 17 years of experience

Endorsing your friends on LinkedIn for proficiency in Microsoft Office

Networking literally everywhere you go so SOMEBODY will be so kind as to offer you a job

Planning your final college spring break

Listening to those unrelated, have-to-take-you-to-graduate-class professors lecture

Hearing underclassmen complain about the campus food that you'd give anything to eat

Seeing new people coming in and taking over your organizations executive teams

Trying to be a different and more professional person on every copy of your resume

Watching Facebook looking for that first "I got the job!" post so you can officially start worrying

When you pass your freshman dorm and realize how quickly time has passed

But then everyone starts talking about all the "lasts" this semester will bring

And even though you're going to miss the hell out of this place and these people...

...You're prepared and excited for what's to come next

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.
