Graduating: Things You Took For Granted And Will Miss

College was hard, but these things made it worth it.

College students spend four, if not more than four, years trudging through the books, classes and constant assignments that seem to constitute the average college experience. Here at ASU, it's no different. Students enter in, eager and awaiting the peak years of their lives, and are welcomed with essays and countless assigned pages and exams. However, regardless of how tough it is, they make it through and finally, with anticipation for a new life to come, they graduate. Although graduation is basically the overall goal of completing college, once you do graduate there are some things that you'll be missing.


1. The feeling when you get out of class early.


2. Free food offered on campus practically every week.


3. The college parties you won't experience anywhere else.


4. Being able to meet new people and make new friends every semester change.


5. The amount of open-minded people that can only be found on college campuses.


6. When you're rushing to make a deadline, and the teacher extends it.


7. The free resources offered on campus to help you succeed. (i.e. the career center and the writing center)


8. All the clubs that were geared toward your specific interests, and the people who shared those interests.


9. The campus coffee that really isn't all that great (but we all secretly love).


10. Being a spectator of a sport as a fellow student, rather than an alumni.


11. Being able to sleep in because your first class isn't until noon.

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.
