For those of us at the point in our college career when graduation day is the only thing on our minds, it can be tough to concentrate on school. You go to class, you do the work and you try to care a whole lot, but in the end, you would much rather be anywhere but on campus. Luckily for us, the characters of the "Star Wars" saga know our pains all too well.

Those times when you walk around campus and realize how truly weird college students are:

When you stroll into class and the teacher announces a pop quiz:

Knowing you can wait until the last second to do an assignment because you've done it 100 times before:

When you go from nothing due to three tests, four papers and six meetings with professors all in one week:

That glorious feeling when a professor gives you extra time to turn in a paper:

When your professor tells you that you won't be able to procrastinate your paper and still get an A:

Sitting in class, wondering if it's too late to quit college:

Finally crawling into bed at the end of a day full of classes, meetings and work:

Those times when your roommates try to convince you to go out, when you know you really should be studying:

When you truly have no idea what the professor has been talking about for the past hour:

The reaction you get when someone asks you what you're doing after graduation:

And finally, feeling like you're so close, yet so far away from graduation day:

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

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.
