The Last Few Weeks Of The Semester, As Told By Friends
Yes Movies

The end of the semester is approaching, and your emotions are riding the biggest rollercoaster of the year. Trying to figure out exactly how you feel? Friends is obviously the only real way to communicate what's going through your head these next few weeks:

You are drowning in school work.

Whether it’s finishing up that last big paper, preparing for a huge presentation or cramming for a test, the last few weeks can make you feel like you’re drowning in a never-ending flow of work.

This question:

...makes you want to SCREAM.

You need a little extra courage to make it to class.

Maybe you’ve skipped one too many times or you already have your dream summer planned to a T. Whatever the reason, I feel you.

Even if you make it to class, there’s a 99.99% chance that you’re going to fall asleep.

This is also the perfect time to give up on looking decent (let’s be real, did we ever actually try to look decent?) and just wear your pajamas to class. I mean, you’ve got to be comfy if you’re going to nap.

When your friends get to play and you’re stuck doing work.


Caffeine.

The barista knows you’re going to order those four extra shots in your drink each and every day. The best part? Everyone else is too. Caffeine-highs may vary.

You have so much school work to do but there’s also a day drink at the pool.

…Homework can wait, right? There are only a few weekends left to appreciate the enjoyable parts of college, so obviously, you see where those priorities lie. Hey, school:

When you see your grades and realize you probably should’ve studied that one (or five) times you sat down to start but ended up looking at puppy pictures instead.



…and then there are times when not studying actually pays off.

We all know that feeling when we’re expecting the worst and actually pull off a slightly above-average grade. #Winning.

Realizing you’re not going to be with your squad in just a few weeks.

On the bright side, a weekend trip to visit your BFF’s in their hometown is just what a great summer needs.

When school is finally out! You made it!!!!!

You rock. So does not having homework, tests, office hours, all-nighters, college food...should I continue?

Time to live life, and enjoy your FREEDOM.

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.
