Everybody knows that Mondays are a terrible thing in life, no matter what. It seems like the worst things always happen on Mondays and it's the day we all dread most of all. Some people may think it's ridiculous to hate a day of the week, but I think it is entirely plausible. So I am going to give you a short list of why I hate Mondays

1. It's the day after the weekend.

Mondays are the day after the weekend and if you're anything like me that means you either worked until 10 at night or you stayed up late watching Gilmore Girls. Now this wouldn't really be a problem, except for the fact that instead of getting organized for tomorrow, I spend the late nights of Sunday relaxing instead of preparing for Monday. I mean the stress of even thinking about Monday makes you want to binge watch another episode on Netflix.

2. You forget about the stuff you are supposed to do on Monday.

I usually try to go into my weekend not having a lot of stuff due, because most weekends I try to work a lot of hours which means not a lot of time for studying. So most of the time, I think I have everything done until I arrive at school and suddenly all of the stuff I forgot over the weekend becomes crystal clear in my mind. So then I get to spend most of the day planning things so that all my stuff is turned in when it is supposed to and I promise myself I'll be more organized next weekend.

3. Monday tests are the worst.

I'm gonna go out on a limb and say that every college student agrees with me here: Monday tests were probably the worst invention for college kids. In your mind, it sounds fantastic because you are supposed to have two days to study for the information instead of one, but instead of actually studying you find reasons to do anything, but study. Slowly the stress of the test begins to gnaw at you and you want to just take it and get it over with because if you see the study guide one more time you'll cry. So tests any day of the week are pretty awful, but I would have to say I hate Monday tests the most.

4. Everybody is done with you complaining about how terrible Monday is.

Monday may be the worst day of the week, but that doesn't mean you have to bring it up every 10 minutes. Obviously, I'm complaining by making this list, but if you would spend this much talking about how much you dislike Mondays I'm pretty sure your coworkers would want to kill you. So next time you're having a terrible Monday, just know we are all with you, but you can't always blame it on Mondays or every Monday say "I hate Monday", even though we are all saying it in our heads.

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.
