Go Out With A Bang

It’s the end of the semester, everyone! It’s about time, right? It almost seemed as if this semester was never going to end. Well, it’s not completely over for those of us who have finals this week, but we’re getting there. Now the trouble is getting the motivation to study without your mind elsewhere, or just stressing out over studying because that is all we have time to do. Here’s a note: always take a break, nothing is going to stick if you continuously study. Even if it is for ten minutes, use that time to do something else and then go back to it.

Finals week is a stressful time, no doubt. A lot of people just seem to lose their motivation because they don’t care since it is the end of the semester, it’s kind of like a “hell with it, I’m done with this stuff.” I know the feeling all too well, just like every one of you. I feel the stress of class finals. Sometimes it gets overwhelming. Take a break and come back to it later if you feel like you aren’t remembering things after studying for a while. Normally, a break is all you need (sleep is also a good option, even if it’s like an hour nap). Come back to it.

All of us are ready to be done by finals week, but there are still the tests to make it through. It may seem never-ending, but there’s an end to the week. Losing motivation and procrastinating are not the way to go, you are so close. Keep going, you got this. Study for those finals, sleep for a few hours, and take some breaks. You never know what a little sleep will do to help you with your tests. When you’re tired and try studying, nothing ever sticks. Keep your motivation going in any way possible. You have this in the bag; you’re almost there. Do your best! Go out with a bang, my fellow college students!

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.
