Finals Week As Told By 'Friends'
All Episode Guides

It’s that dreaded time of year again. Between the rush to get extra credit assignments and pull all-nighters, you can feel it approaching. Finals week. Here’s a few times the cast of "Friends" perfectly depicted what it’s like to go into, and come out barely alive, from finals.

When you realize you forgot everything you learned before spring break:

And you have to figure out how to catch up on everything you missed:

But you still find every reason to procrastinate the piles of work surrounding you:

Then suddenly all of your friends want to go out, but you have a 10-page paper due in the morning, and no one else is concerned:

And it’s supposed to be 24-hour quiet hour, but the room next door feels the need to include you in their unnecessary celebration:

So you attempt to spend the entire night cramming in as much material as possible only to be convinced that it has gotten you nowhere:

So you walk into your exam to the next day only to hear someone brag about how they didn’t study and plan to ace the exam:

But then you take one look at the exam and feel like all of that studying was a waste:

But you finally finish and hand it in:

And the second you do, you second-guess every decision you’ve ever made in your life:

But it doesn’t matter because finals week is finally over and it’s OK:

And now you’re ready for vacation… kinda:

So here's to realizing it hasn't been your day, your week, your month or even your year. Here's to hours of procrastination, denial and regret. Here's to finals week.

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.
