Four Reasons Why We Shouldn't Have Class On Friday

Friday: The most anticipated day of the week. The day when all of our hopes and dreams of a carefree night where we don't have to worry about all of the work we haven't done or tests we haven't studied for.

This day is possibly one of the most unproductive days of the week, which is why having class is just a flat out inconvenience and here's why:


1. Unfocused

Let's face it, most people find it hard to focus in class on a daily basis, but if you think Monday through Thursday is hard I can assure you that on Friday if you look around the room most everyone will be preoccupied, sleepy, or on their phones.


2. Pointless

Believe it or not, Fridays are also slacker days for professors too. I know, I know it's pretty hard to believe that your professors are humans too, but they've got to be exhausted for all of us students having the time of our lives in college. Their lectures (especially on Fridays) are painfully boring and almost always irrelevant.


3. Unmotivated

I'm already exhausted and I'm sorry, but waking up for a full day of class just really interferes with my motivation to go out, which is a HUGE problem because I should be able to enjoy my weekend right? Well, not exactly. Since I'm always so drained from a long day of classes, Fridays are always the hardest nights to go out, which sucks because they're always fun and most of the time I end up staying in and falling asleep before 11 pm.


4. The Aftermath: Thirsty Thursday

Yes, but this is definitely a thing. If you choose a night of the week to go out, Thursday should be it. In order to reduce the amount of struggling hungover college students straggling into class, Friday classes need to go. Plus everyone pretty much skips anyways.


So … can we just cancel Friday classes already? Thanks!

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.
