Questions You Hear Way Too Much When You're Home For Summer
Blogspot

We all love coming home from a long and stressful spring semester. Spending time with you family, hanging out with your high school friends and just being extremely lazy. But, spending time with your family can be annoying with all the questions we don’t want to hear.

1. Did you get good grades?

Please, I have been home for maybe two hours, I don’t want to talk and even think about grades right now.

2. Did you make the Dean’s list?

If I don’t want to talk about grades, I sure as heck do not want to talk about the Dean’s list.

3. Do you have a job for this summer?

No, I just plan on constantly asking my parents for money.

4. Well, how about an internship?

If you are not a junior or sophomore yet, then prepare for this question to be asked a lot. Here is a quick answer you can use, “I’m working on it.”

5. Do you have a boyfriend/girlfriend yet?

I swear, this is the most frequent asked question and the most annoying question. Please do not remind me on how lonely I am. But if you have a boy/girlfriend, then good for you for not being alone.

6. What year are you again?

Why does it seem like your whole family just somehow forgot what year you are? Grandma I am a junior in college, I told you this last week.

7. What are you majoring in again?

Your family must think that you change your major often, because they ask you all the time what your major is. Aunt Patty, it has been communications since freshmen year.

8. What are you going to do after college?

I don’t even know what I plan to do tomorrow. How would I know what I am doing after college?

9. How much did you drink at school?

I drank a lot of Dr Pepper, Uncle Tim.

10. (If you are an athlete) How did the season go?

Even though they already know the answer, your family feels obligated to ask you repeatedly how the season went.

11. Do you like school?

Considering I have been at this school for almost four years and I made my best friends here and endless memories…no, I hate 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.
