It's move out season people, and it's hectic as ever. Moving out can seem like it's so excited, you're finished with the year and you're done with school for four months. However, facing the reality of ending my freshman year and moving everything out of my first dorm room has brought so many different emotions that I didn't ever anticipate.

This year was one of laughter and tears, one of complete and total joy and even some moments of great sadness. It was one of the most life-changing years of my life and I had to face so many things that I never thought I would. This is what makes moving out so emotional.

Now don't get me wrong, not having to do school work for four months sounds great to me, but there is a part of me that is not going to love not hanging out with my friends every single night. For the next four months I'm going to have to strategically plan getting all of us together and I won't be able to walk to the other side of the floor to see them.

I'm going to have to take down pictures, decorations, etc. that maybe I'm not ready to take down yet. I packed up my entire life and fit it into a tiny little room and I now have to pack it all up and move it again only to do the very same thing four months from now.

Moving out has it's good and it's bad and while we will be back here soon it's still going to be bittersweet.

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.
