Congratulations!

You have officially reached boredom. Yes, thats right. You finished the four seasons of Scandal that are on Netflix a week before you go back to school. You have taken about 12 baths with bath bombs, which you bought with your Christmas money. So long to saving. You baked about everything on your Pinterest and ate all of it. You have sifted through Netflix for any good movies as well as the food network channel. Lets be honest, you can only watch so much Rachel Ray.

So, what now. You have caught up on your sleep, even through you did not think it was going to be humanly possible after that semester but you did it. You have already caught up with your high school friends and visited all your old hangout spots. So what do you do?

I got you.

1. What was that New Years resolution again?

The one you made like three days ago, yes that one. Give it another shot. Try again. See if you can last two more days than last time.


2. Get yourself organized.

Classes start very very soon. You will get hit with projects and syllabuses as soon as you step foot on your campus. So look through your schedule. Get fresh school supplies. Break out that label maker. This is probably the only free time you will have from now until May, use it.


3. Get caught up on your sleep for next semester.

Is that possible? I am going to be honest with you, I don't know, but it is worth a shot.


4. Find a hobby.

Teach yourself how to crochet. Make everyone you know ear warmers. If you have extra time, learn how to make more than ear warmers.


5. Expand your Pinterest boards.

So you already have 500 things on each one, that is okay. Add more. Make new boards. This could easily take up a day.


6. Take another bath.

You can never get enough bath bomb baths.


7. Order your books.

You need those in approximately one week.


8. Set goals.

You want to get better grades this semester? Volunteer? Skip less classes? Think about what you want out of this semester and write it down. Somewhere you will remember and see often and reach that goal.


So tomorrow when you think you have actually nothing to do, remember this list. You only have so much break, use it!

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.
