These are the best years of your life, why would you want to leave?

I Don't Want To Graduate From College Just Yet

Just as the title says, I do not want to graduate from college.

Ok, of course, I want to graduate in order to obtain a degree, and progress in life. But also I kind of don't want to because I am going to miss my friends, my life in this crazy college town, my apartment, and being on my parent's payroll. (Need I say more?)

I am just not all that jazzed about having to pay real bills, get a real job, and being a real adult. I am not afraid to say that I selfishly like running around college and not worrying about anything other than what I am going to wear out that night or where the next birthday pre is going to be.

College is literally the best time of your life where you make some of your best memories and it makes me salty af that we ever have to leave this magical place. If you do not feel this way about your soon-to-be alma mater then you definitely spent the last few years at the wrong place.

Think back to when you were graduating from high school, you would count down the days until you were free of that prison, but graduating college is literally the opposite. I refuse to even learn the date of graduation. (Even though my family is constantly asking.)

Everyone knows that all good things must come to an end, therefore I am thankful for the time I had in college. I am so lucky to have met friends I hope to keep for life, and even luckier to know that I can look back on these years and hold securely in the fact that I appreciated every moment of it.

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.
