Class at 10, nap at noon.

How We All Really Feel About Going Back To School
FastCoexist.com

We all stress over little things when going back to school. These are just a few of the main ones that come to my mind when I think about it. Sometimes it's hard to get back in the swing of things because most of us like the overthink the situation. But we all know it'll work out in the end as long as we push through. Hope you enjoy!

1. Why do I have to pay so much for books that I will never use again?

Honestly, why do the books cost so much when tuition is already outrageous?

2. I should probably find a job..

Since most of us get full time summer jobs, we won't have a job when we head back to campus full time. So the job hunt begins all over again if we have any hope of eating something off campus.

3. Should I wear my pajamas or jeans to class?

It's hard to get back into the swing of things, even if you were

Should I wear my pajamas or jeans to class?

working all summer. Waking up and actually getting ready seems useless when you're just going to sit in a classroom for a few hours.

4. I have class at 10, when I get back, I'm taking a nap.

Between stressing about the daily things then adding on how much classes stress us out, we all need a little nap here and there just to keep us on track.

5. Stop asking me if I'm ready for school to start back up.

In all reality we're just ready to graduate. School is great and all but jobs that pay more than $7 an hour are so much better.

6. Of course we will miss home when we head back to school.

Although we often complain about our home towns and cannot wait for school to start back; we appreciate our small town so much more once we have the chance to miss it.

7. We just have to keep reminding ourselves that it will all be worth it in the end and it won't be too much longer before we embark on a new chapter in our lives.

Don't get me wrong. I love college, I love going to school and learning in general. I love the professors and life long friends that I am making along the way, but I've been in school what seems like my whole life. And I am so excited for the chance to do something different.

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.
