College move in day is exciting for any student. Students are reunited with friends and their second home after a long summer. Though it is great to be back, moving in can be a bit stressful. Packing, moving, and arranging your room can be stressful and chaotic.

1. You feel like you forgot everything.

Usually because you waited until the night before to do a bulk of your packing.

2. The car is stuffed to the brim.

You are a true tetris master after loading up your car and you do a little dance after you finish.

3. Your mom usually comments about how much you are bringing to school.

This usually occurs when she sees the car.

4. Your mother smothers you before you leave.

When you finally escape you are covered in her tears.

5. Your furniture is never arraiged the way you want it.

The first hour is figuring out where you want your desk.

6. You have to unpack all of your stuff.

It's almost as bad as packing all of it.

7. It takes multiple days to decorate.

Your posters and pictures must be in the right place.

8. You realize you have to get ready for a new semester.

Cue the anxiety attack.

9. You stress out about your first day of school outfit.

You have to try and at least look presentable for the first week.

10. You order out because you are already sick of cafeteria food.

11. People say hi to you and you can't remember their name.

12. Despite all these you are so excited to start a new semester with friends.

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.
