Finals week thoughts.

It's finals week, joy! I can't wait to finish my last final on Wednesday and be done with school work for the semester, as I assume most everyone feels the same way. No matter what major you are, most of us share the same thoughts during finals week:

1. Do I really have to study?

The answer is probably yes but you'll ask anyways. Whether you have a health final or a calculus final you're going to question yourself when it comes to studying.

2. Say, "I'm dropping out" every 10 minutes

You'll probably say this at least 50 times before you take your first final. You won't actually drop out or do anything, but you'll think and say this as soon as you don't understand something or you want to be done studying and learning and go to sleep.

3. Question your major and degree

After five hours of studying you'll start to question why you picked the major you are in. You'll probably start brainstorming and looking up a list of "easy" majors online and pick a new one for next semester. Along with "I'm dropping out" you might even Google if you need a college degree to get a job.

4. What time can I sleep in until?

It's 10 p.m. and you're so done with studying for the night. You'll try to plan what time you can wake up in the morning in order to have enough time to finish studying. Don't forget to set a few alarms so that you don't sleep in and miss your final!

5. Eat more than you should or not enough

You'll either be too stressed to eat or avoid doing work by eating. Personally, I will be eating to avoid work. I never have a problem eating 15 snacks before I start to study.

6. Wanting to be done but not wanting to leave

As much as you miss home, four months without your best friends does not sound fun at all. Going home will be nice for about a week then it will set in that you won't be able to see anyone until August.

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.
