The Life Of A Business Major, As Told By 'How I Met Your Mother'

Ahh the business major. The most ambitious, greedy, and serious of college students right? Well, not quite. We may appear to have our shit together and our lives figured out, but trust me when I say that most of us don't. We wouldn't change our major for the world (most days) but it can be a grind. So who else is there to better explain what the life of a business major is really like than the dysfunctional gaggle of friends that make up the cast of "How I Met Your Mother."


Accounting.

Walking into your first ever networking event.

Actually in your first ever networking event.

When someone says that being a business major is easy.

In the science class you have to take in order to graduate.

Seeing people on campus dressed in business professional attire.

The two kinds of reactions when a group project gets assigned. There's no in between.

or

When Patrice screws up your group project.

That one kid who somehow aces the finance exam even after he went out the night before.

Starting your last exam of finals week.

When you have a job lined up before senior year starts but none of your friends do.

When your friends mention how long your hours are going to be in said job.

On graduation day when you think you are free from the world of networking and group projects.

When you realize that group projects and networking will be the basis of your entire career.


Good luck my friends. We're all in this together.

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.
