Finals Week Accurately Told By "Parks & Rec"

Leslie Knope always gets 3.5 hours of sleep, so she gets it.

Finals Week Accurately Told By "Parks & Rec"
Parks & Recreation

Finals week. A week of caffeine, studying, stress, and not so much sleep. If you're lucky, finals week is actually only one week long. If you aren't, it can stretch out to three weeks. Either way, stay strong. And remember, everything you're going through can be overcome. Just take a few tips from "Parks & Rec."

1. Convincing yourself that you are, by far, the least intelligent person on the planet and you should quit now.

2. When you try to rationalize going to eat instead of studying.

3. And when you do hang out, you make your friends reassure you constantly.

4. And sometimes, you have to motivate yourself.

5. When you have to say "no" to social outings in order to study.


6. The library becomes your new home.

7. And when finals week ends, you swear you'll never go back.


8. Thinking an all-nighter is a good idea.

9. When the professor writes tricky questions and your answer comes out like this:

10. And of course, you always have that one final that you look at and feel as if you didn't even take the class.

11. And the final that's way too easy and you convince yourself that it's actually a trick.

12. Waiting for your grades to come back.


13. And somehow, someway, you managed to pull it off.

14. Except for that one final- but you know what to do.

15. Time to crash–– and then celebrate.

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.
