Preparing For Finals, As Told By Leslie Knope

"You are a beautiful, talented, brilliant, powerful musk ox." —Leslie Knope

Preparing For Finals, As Told By Leslie Knope
Bustle

When finals week comes around it’s a bittersweet feeling of the semester about to end, but you’re going to be a sleep deprived, stressed out, "hangry" college student who doesn’t know if they're going to make it to the summer.

You may be that person who tries to deny that you’re going to have to actually study for your exams and just pretends that your review sheet doesn’t exist.

Or, maybe you're that person who tells themselves that they're going to be productive and get a head start in studying.

Whichever person you may be, I'm pretty sure we all have that same moment when we finally do look at our review.

You try to discipline yourself to stay focused during your study sessions, and attempt to not give in to binge watching your favorite show on Netflix, even though they just came out with a new season.

You probably have those desperate moments where you need your friends to help motivate and encourage you when you feel like your head might explode and the world is coming to a dramatic end.

Or you might give yourself a pep talk for extra encouragement.

You'll probably have a mental breakdown or two.

And your diet will consist of fast food and coffee.

Eventually, though, that great day arrives where you are finished with all of your final exams and you can finally relax and celebrate until next semester.

Good luck!

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.
