Graduating College As Told By Nick Miller

For any recent college graduates you probably feel like you're in a weird limbo stage right now. You haven't quite wrapped your brain around the fact that you aren't a student anymore, and you definitely don't feel like a full blown adult just yet. And who better to express all those weird feelings for us than someone who's not quite an adult himself, the one and only Nick Miller.

1. Whenever anyone asks you that dreaded question that you have absolutely no answer for, "So what now?"

2. The first day of your "real life job" when you realize you're not prepared at all and retained virtually nothing from your classes.


3. Getting home from that same job and just wanting to lay in bed with your pants off and not worry about any of your responsibilities.


4. The thought of being totally responsible for yourself now makes you cringe.


5. Trying to convince the rest of the world that you're a real, functioning adult.


6. Realizing you're in way over your head with this thing called "life."


7. Once you realize your life is no longer laid out for you and you have to figure things out for yourself.


8. You're both excited to start a new chapter of your life but also kind of dreading it.



9. Finally just accepting the truth and embracing it.



10. After all, what does it even really mean to be a "successful adult?"

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.
