Winter graduation is finally upon us. We've waited since the Spring Commencement for this week to get here, to get our chance to walk across the stage and get our diploma. It's the last week of undergrad and there are plenty of things still left to do...

1. Stock up on coffee and energy drinks to get through finals, projects, papers, job interviews, and everything else the week might throw at you.

2. Try not to burn your apartment down.

3. Craft your graduation cap, after procrastinating for the last few weeks.

4. Eat at all of your favorite college town restaurants.

5. Drink of choice. Celebrate! You did it!

6. Don't run out of laundry detergent.

7. Pack everything you own into boxes.

8. Find a place to live post-graduation.

9. Take a nap when it all gets too stressful.

10. Mourn for leaving your best friends.

11. Take 100 pictures.

12. Plan graduation dinner with all of your family and friends.

13. Say you are going to do all of the things you've mentioned doing throughout your senior year, but never actually following through with them.

14. Walk through campus and take it all in.

15. Check your campus mailbox.

16. Turn in parking passes and apartment keys.

17. Cry because you're leaving your home for the past four years.

18. Go through all of your pictures from undergrad. Laugh at yourself and your friends. Cry because you miss the old times, and laugh again. Reminiscing through it all.

19. Celebrate because you survived undergrad.

20. Lastly, graduate.

Now, it's time to go and celebrate because we finally did 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.
