Life would be so much easier if only you went to Hogwarts where exams are cancelled almost every year.

As the school year winds down and summer vacation draws closer, college students begin to prepare for the most stressful time of the semester: Finals. It's that time of the year when you realize that the semester you partied away is coming to a close and you actually have to study for those classes you are supposed to be attending. Whoops, sorry mom! If only we could all go to Hogwarts and got tested on our magical abilities instead of muggle things like calculus.

When you realize how much studying you have to get done.

When your professor continually reminds you that the final exam is cumulative.

When your friends convince you to go to the bars for all you can drink the night before a big exam.

Thinking about what will happen when your parents find out about your grades for the semester.

When someone asks what you'll be doing this weekend.


When the professor says you can't learn all the material for the exam the night before

When you get the exam and realize you are extremely underprepared.


When the professor says the final is going to be fill in the blank instead of multiple choice and you actually have to know the information

When you guess on all of the multiple choice questions and end up doing all right.

When you leave an exam that you know that you aced.

When the last exam is done.

When exams are finally over and you have to patiently wait for all your professors to put in the final grades.

When it's finally summer vacation and it turns out you survived another semester.


We're almost done, but let's face it, finals would be so much cooler if we did them at Hogwarts.

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.
