Finals Week As Told By 'Parks And Recreation'

We all have to fall into the pit to reach the end.

Finals Week As Told By 'Parks And Recreation'
Buzzfeed

The quarter is quickly coming to an end, but before you get to go home and do nothing except watch Netflix for the entire week, you have to get through finals week. Finals week, for me at least, usually consists of at least one essay and two finals. These obstacles are the only thing between you and break, like a giant pit that you have to fall into and climb back out of. The entire week usually goes something like this:


When you're sitting in a lecture and have absolutely no idea what the professor is talking about:

So you have to stay up all week studying:

Then, when you finally get the chance to sleep, you can't because you're so nervous for your exams:

When one of your final essays is due tomorrow and you've barely started:

So you ask your friend for a little help:


When you finish a final assignment early:


But your professor starts talking about your assignment topic and it's nothing like what you wrote about:

So you have to go back and fix it:

And eventually you just give up and turn it in:

When you start questioning reality:

Because the final that you thought was on Tuesday is actually on Monday:

So you ask your professor for an extension:

When you finally finish everything:


But your professors take forever to get your grades in:

When grades finally come in and you aced that one test that you thought you failed:

But you fail your math test:

But who cares anymore because you're done with those classes and it's time for 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. 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.
