The Real Lyrics To Vitamin C's "Graduation Song"

And so we drank all night, fearing the rest of our lives

Without college, how will we ever survive?

It's hard to believe that four years have passed

All of the good times went by way too fast.


Once we walk across the stage, we become alum

The real world is too scary, I just want to have fun.

And you're not quite sure what exactly to say

Because college has changed you in so many great ways.


It's time to move on, but it's hard to believe

That after all this, it's our time to leave

And I can't stop thinking about freshman year

When everything was new and it felt like there was lots to fear.


There was so much to do

And there was so much to see

So many sleepless nights and countless memories

And we would drink too much and we wouldn't give a f**k

Now we're crying to ourselves, thinking how graduation is gonna suck.


And this is how it feels...


As we go on

We can't remember

All of the times we

Shared together

And though the alcohol

Made us forget

We still know that

We have no regrets.


We stressed over formals and who to bring as our dates,

Gave up on statistics and left the exams up to fate.

How am I supposed to leave my college best friends?

We had plans to be together until the bitter end.


I'll miss the dance floor makeouts and the late night texts

Whether they were booty calls or a drunken sext.

Hungover brunches after day drinking on Saturday

I never want to leave this place, I wish that I could stay.


And this is how it feels...


As we go on

We can't remember

All the times we

Shared together

And though the alcohol

Made us forget

We still know that

We have no regrets.


La, la, la, la

Yeah, yeah, yeah

La, la, la, la

We have no regrets


Once we enter the real world, I hope we become less stressed

I know we can succeed and remain the best dressed.

There's no part of me that would trade these past four years

I just wish we didn't have to say goodbye so I could stop my tears.


We will all find jobs and we will all make money

And sooner or later, we'll find men who call us "honey."

But until then I wish that we could make college last

I'm not ready for school to become a thing of the past.


And this is how it feels...


As we go on

We can't remember

All the times we

Shared together

And though the alcohol

Made us forget

We still know that

We have no regrets.

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.
