The end of the semester is coming up and that means reading days and late nights of cramming are on the horizon. Even though everyone wants to go home, we have to tough it out for one more week and then we're free. Luckily, "Parks and Recreation" knows what we are going through during that last week of the semester.

1. Going out before exams begin.

When your friends force you to go out because it's the last weekend, but you have an 8 a.m. class the next morning.

2. Trying to remember all of the information that you learned.

When it's so hard to know everything from one semester, but you try everything you can.

3. When studying becomes too much.

We all need a break at some point.

4. Dealing with the insane amount of work.

When you give up being a responsible adult because the work load grows by 100 percent.

5. Doing work is no longer appealing.

When you want your professor to say "great work" or "amazing job," but you don't want to put in the effort to get there.

6. Thoughts after an exam.

All of a sudden, you've finished most of your exams.

7. Thoughts during an exam.


We've all had an exam that we didn't realize how unprepared we were for it.

8. Keeping strong during finals week.


When you literally just can't study anymore, but you have to remind yourself that you are strong.

9. Planning out alternative options.

Options include: going back to sleep, going to class, studying or take the L.

10. Giving yourself motivation.

Sometimes you just have to give yourself that pep talk.

11. You start becoming jealous of the ones who aren't studying.

You even envy animals too much because they don't have to go through college.

12. You wish you were a kid again.

Finally, this realization will hit you harder than a train.

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.
