10 Things You Know If You Live For Late Night TV

A few weeks ago, I was able to take the NBC studios tour at 30 Rockefeller Center and I was blown away by the tour. We were able to check out the studios where Nightly News with Lester Holt, SNL and The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon are filmed.

While we waited to enter the Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon's studio, my best friend told the families on the tour with us "when you're a college student, late night TV is a big thing." At the time, I didn't really think much of it, but looking back, its so true. As a college student, I live for late night TV since it hypes me up, wakes me up, or makes me realize that it's getting late so I need to go to bed soon.

You know that you live for late night tv if:

1. Mean Tweets make you laugh so hard you cry.

Sometimes it's the tweets, other times it's the responses.

2. You get irrationably upset after watching Last Week Tonight with John Oliver.

All of this new stuff that you just learned suddenly makes you upset at the world.


3. You wish the Roots could make a soundtrack for your everyday life.

So you could be at the dining hall like...

4. You love seeing guest performances.

You may not know who the performers are, but it's still fun to watch them perform. (By the way, this is Blake Shelton.)


5. Clips from last night's show are all over your Facebook or Twitter feeds.

The day after Chance the Rapper's "hockey reporter" sketch, every actual hockey reporter I followed had retweeted it or tweeted about it in some form.


6. You send your friends gifs of segments that made you laugh out loud.

7. You have a favorite recurring segment or sketch.

I'm split between Jimmy Kimmel Talks to Kids and Weekend Update.


8. You get really excited when your college mascot is on a show during March Madness and share the video on every account you have.

I feel ya, Ramses. March Madness had me feeling like it was more like March Sadness.

9. You love guest segments.

Not sure what's going on here, but I'm kinda ok with it.

10. You make a point to see a show live.

I was able to catch The Daily Show with Trevor Noah live this month and it was so cool. This was my view from the audience.

With the final drive towards finals, you too might be up watching late night TV and studying, or just watching your favorite late night shows.

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.
