It's That Point In The Semester Again...
static.independent.co.uk/

Ahh... Welcome to midway through the midway point of the semester. You're about 65-75% done with the semester, officially. (You might be 1000% done with the semester personally.) And your struggling. Well, don't worry were right there with you. Dealing with the same issues, just different class, times, and majors. But, we're all in this together.

It's that point of the semester, it's really easy to just give up. I've told myself probably 100 times in the last week I was taking a personal week. (Unfortunately, that's not a reality and I still have yet to take that personal week, and it probably won't happen anytime soon.)

It's that point of the semester, where all of your professors decide to give you exams either all on the same day, or in the same couple days.

It's that point of the semester where you're involved in way too much, and you just feel like dropping out of your extracurriculars.

It's that point of the semester where you are running off 3-4 hours of sleep.

It's that point of the semester where you sometimes forget to eat.

It's that point of the semester you show up to class with the blanket you're crawled out of bed with.

It's that point of the semester where all of your professors give you a huge multi-page paper worth 10% of your final grade all due on the same day

It's that point of the semester where professors give way too much "busy work" for homework.

It's that point of the semester when you don't even know what friends are.

It's that point of the semester when you're completely broke.

Unfortunately, It's just that point of the semester again. But we will all get through this. Just don't give up, it'll all pass eventually, and then we won't have to worry about it until next semester but for now, it's just that point of the semester!

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.
