You've done it.

You've made it past those dreaded midterm exams, papers, or presentations. What's left? The popular show, Parks and Recreation, describes what's in store for a college student at the end of the semester.

1. When you convince yourself the second half of you'll do better than the first:

Yeah, well a girl can dream can't she?

2. When November 1st rolls around:

It's time to replace those Halloween door decorations with Christmas decorations!

3. When there's still assignments you need the grade for:

The drop period has already come and gone, but

4. When its time to register for spring classes:

Why must be registration be harder than my Fall classes?

5. When an assignment sneaks up on you:

Did you forget about me?

6. When your friends plan an epic roadtrip after a particularly stressful week:

Good music, good friends, simply good things are waiting for us on the road.

7. When your professor, who explicitly stated the opposite in the syllabus, gives an extra credit assignment:

Are you just trying to sugar-coat some awful truth? Why are you being so nice all of a sudden?

8. When you see professors assigned work over Thanksgiving break:

We're so close to the end, but how about I just quit now.

9. When Thanksgiving Holiday finally rolls around:

I'm going to need to eat extra this year to make sure I have enough energy to return to school.

10. When you turn in your last assignment for a class:

So long, Fall '17.

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.
