Finals are one of the more miserable times in a college student's academic career. If your week (or month) has been anywhere near as bad as mine, you will be able to relate to some of these instances, as told by Arrested Development's Tobias Funke.


1. When the reality of how much you have to do starts to sink in, and you can’t handle it.



2. When you read the instructions for your assignments and essays.



3. When you start talking about everything you have to do in the next week.



4. When you have to work with a group for your final project.



5. When you decide that reasoning with your group project teammates is pointless, and you are just going to do your portion separately.



6. When you are studying with your friends and you can't seem to focus or be productive.



7. When you check off the first (of many) boxes on your to-do list.



8. When you need to ask your friend to send you their study guide.



9. When you run into a friend that is in the same boat, or worse.



10. When you don't know if any of the torture is worth it.



11. When you take a leap of faith, and study what you think will be on the exam.



12. When you calculate the grade you need to get on the final to do well in the class.



13. When you are trying to turn in an assignment quickly at the beginning of class, and then sneak out unnoticed so that you can get more study time.



14. When your professor gives you a crappy attendance grade.



15. When you need to get out of bed and start getting things done, but all you can do is lay there like this.



16. When you just pulled an all nighter to study, and you realize that it is already light out.



17. When you experience this exact moment.



18. When you get handed the exam booklet.



19. When you are taking an exam and trying to remember what you studied, but it won't come to you.



20. When you literally can not answer the first question on the exam and everyone around you is finishing.



21. When you are trying to fill in space in an exam ‘blue book’.



22. When you leave an exam, and feel like you failed, but know there's nothing you can do to fix it now.



23. When all's said and done, no matter how hard you worked, finals kicked your ass and probably took a year or two off your life.

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.
