Finals week is upon us.

Finals Week, As Told By 'Stepbrothers'

When somebody asks you if you've looked at the study guide for the final yet...

When you realize finals start next week and the stress you've been trying to ignore finally hits you like a ton of bricks.

When one of your professors tells you that the final is optional.

When somebody says, "May the odds be ever in your favor."

When your friend asks you if she's getting stress acne.

When you get to the bar after making a split decision to party instead of studying...

...and then your mom tells you she doesn't feel bad that you're stressed out and crying because she saw those Facebook pictures of you at the bar last night.

When you can't stop daydreaming about the cruise you're going on as soon as finals week is over.

When somebody tells you that you look "tired."

When the kid you sit next to in class tells you he has a copy of the final from last year.

When you've been stress eating while you study and you realize you've put on a couple in the process.

When your friend tells you she doesn't have any final exams this semester.

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

...and that it will count for 50% of your final grade for the class.

When the elevator in the library is jam packed and somebody dares to breathe on you...

...and then they decide to only take the elevator from the lobby to the 2nd floor when they REALLY could have walked up one flight of stairs.

When you've been staring at your computer screen so long that you start hallucinating.

When somebody asks you if you can send them your notes.

When your mom calls you to ask how studying is going...

When you walk into your first exam...

...and when you walk out of your last one.

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.
