Mean Girls Quotes and the Mixed Emotions of Going Back to School

“Is butter a carb?” When you go back to school and are not around your parents, anymore, everything you know about health and food goes right out the window again. Alcohol and Trujillos is obviously healthy, right?

“There are two kinds of evil people in this world. Those who do evil stuff and those who see evil stuff being done and don’t try to stop it.” How you will feel when your professors start giving evil homework assignments your first week back at school.

“We only carry sizes one, three and five. You could try Sears.” Freshman 15 was one story. Who knew gaining so much weight at home over the holidays was possible? Perhaps it is time to work off the mashed potatoes and Xmas cookies before spring formal hits.

“I’m a mouse, duh.” Welcome back to the school where there are themed parties four times a week. Get your costumes ready; it’s time to get creative again.

“Oh, no. It was coming up again, word vomit, no, wait a minute.” Since your tolerance is now gone since you have been home for a month and a half, pace yourself when you go out.

“I wish we could all get along like we used to in middle school. I wish I could bake a cake filled with rainbows and smiles and everyone would eat and be happy.” New classes, back to living with the roommates you have not seen in a while and, hopefully, things start off wonderful. The nostalgia about how easy life was when your mom did your laundry, cooked all your meals and helped you with your homework, will certainly kick in very quickly.

“Did you have an awesome time? Did you drink awesome shooters, listen to awesome music, and then just sit around and soak up each others awesomeness?” Your friends who still live at home will start missing you and the fact that they did not go away to college.

"'Cause she’s a life ruiner. She ruins people’s lives.” This is how we feel about the professors who give tests, quizzes, and homework during syllabus week. Isn’t it supposed to be a week where we show up for five minutes and then go back home? Who knew we would actually have things to do.

“Everyone in Africa can read Swedish.” Your friends who studied abroad in fall will be back to school with all sorts of fun stories about their travels overseas. Who knows, you might learn something interesting.

“My Nana takes her wig off when she is drunk.”  You will come back from break with a whole new understanding of your family and what they are like when you have not been around for a while. Then, you have to spend an extended amount of time with them.  

“Fine! You can walk home, b****es." You go back to school and you realize that you do not have a car anymore, and you need to be really really nice to your friends with cars.

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.
