Finals Week As Told By "Gossip Girl"

Gossip Girl, here! Your one and only source into the scandalous lives of college's elite – finals week edition. You know you love me. XOXO.

1. You're trying to enjoy Thanksgiving break, but your professors keep emailing you to inform you that the end of the semester is rapidly approaching.

2. As if you weren't under enough stress your mom keeps reminding you that she can't wait to see how well you did this semester.

Don't hold your breath, Ma.

3. You realize that you skipped too many classes and are actually weeks behind on the material.

4. You may be a junior, but that doesn't stop you from rethinking your major.

5. Being nice to people you hate just does not fit into your schedule anymore.

6. As if studying wasn't hard enough, you're going through a rough break up (with Netflix).

7. You thought you loved your professor, but then he announces that the final is going to be cumulative.

8. You forgot what life looks like outside the four walls of the library.

9. You walk into your first final confident and ready to take on the world.

9. But then you realize you know absolutely nothing.

10. That one annoying friend won't stop talking about how she has no finals to study for.

11. You haven't showered in days.

You smell like highlighter ink, chicken fingers and failure.

12. You keep staring at the same words in your textbook over and over again.

13. You call your best friend for some final words of encouragement.

14. Halfway through your last final you decide to just give up and hand it in.


14. The semester is officially over – hello, winter break.

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.

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.
