Any soon-to-be college senior will agree, entering the final stage of "the best four years of your life" is pretty dang intimidating. In high school, being a senior meant you ruled the school; every student looked forward to the day that their reign as a senior finally began. In college, it's a different story. Ever since we've been college freshmen, we remember looking at the current seniors and pitying them for the little time they had left in this glorious bubble of life. Well, unfortunately, our time has finally come. So this goes out to my fellow incoming college seniors: good luck to us all.

HS Senior: Finally, we're the kings of the school! Bow down measly freshman!

College Senior: If any freshman want to switch places, hit me up....seriously.

HS Senior: Ugh, can't believe my parents are making me work this summer. I have to do three whole shifts a week at the ice cream shop, so unfair.

College Senior: Someone PLEASE hire me for a 9-5 when I graduate. Please.

HS Senior: 18! I can get a tat and buy a lotto ticket and go to adult jail!

College Senior: 21! 21! 21! Let's hit the bars y'all!

HS Senior: Can't wait to be free of the 'rents!

College Senior: Mom, Dad, are you sure you don't want to move in with me to my new apartment?

HS Senior: Senior year is so easy I barely have to try!

College Senior: My GPA is what?! Alright library, looks like I'm moving in.

HS Senior: Ugh, free time is so boring. I've been home for a whole hour, I need to do something! You only live once!

College Senior: A whole hour of free time?! Wow I must be dreaming, Netflix, here I come!

HS Senior: Let's go out to eat! Let's go shopping!

College Senior: Hmmm... How can I make this 20 dollars last me for three weeks?

HS Senior: Woohoo! So close to being done, can't wait to blow this Popsicle stand!

College Senior: Please, please, PLEASE don't make me leave.�

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.
