You're not alone.

For The College Students That Don't Party After Finals
Slate

When you think of a stereotypical college student, you probably think of someone that parties all year, studies for finals week, and then goes to party again. Those people do not just exist in pop culture; I can assure you they are real.

That said, I can also assure you that not every college student is like that. There are those that like to party, and those that don't. People have opinions about both. For many students, parties are stressful and give them anxiety, and for those people, I say to you: you're not alone.

It's okay to not go out to party. You won't miss out on life if you don't. If your friends want you to go out with them but you're really uncomfortable with it, politely decline and stick to what you're comfortable with. This doesn't mean to always stay in your comfort zone but if you don't feel safe in an environment or you think you might not feel safe then do what's best for you.

After finals you're pretty much the happiest you could be because all of your hard work will have payed off and going home might be all that you're thinking about. If you don't want to have to spend any more time with people in your hall or suite that goes out a lot, you could always go home early if your finals aren't all week. Also it's important to switch rooms if you aren't comfortable with the people you're around.

Sometimes it's hard to meet people in college if you don't go out or if you're introverted. Get involved in clubs you're interested in and you'll meet others with similar interests and I'm sure you'll find other people that don't like to go out as well.

Overall, if you don't go out after finals you're not alone.

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.
