From The College Freshman Ready For Summer

"Summer means happy times and good sunshine."

Here we are in the last stretch of the spring semester, which means summer is right around the corner. That also means that it can get a little challenging to focus on anything but the fact that it's almost summer. I know in my case, I'm struggling to get through the last few classes and assignments because I just can't wait for summer to start. Even though summer is that close, we have to push through the last few feet and make it to the finish line.

Being a college freshman, I know I need to be able to keep my focus on my classes and school work in order to keep my GPA up, but it's the end of the spring semester which means summer. I feel like it turns into the beginning scene of High School Musical 2, everyone tuning out the teacher, staring at the clock, and chanting "summer, summer, summer" and bursting with excitement when that final bell rang.

As difficult as it is to focus, summer is coming no matter what and we all know how important it is to keep our GPA in check. No one wants to start their summer off by finding out their grades weren't where they needed to be, and I mean do you really want to be the Troy of the group; crouched in the chair hiding because of your final grades while everyone around you is throwing their hands in the air excited for the summer? Relax, I know that's not actually what's going on, I'm just saying.

All of us will finish out the semester, I promise you summer is coming. We have to pick ourselves up, get through the last few days off classes, finish up projects,assignments, and finals, and finish strong. We're all in this together, friends.

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.
