When I started college, I figured that midterms would be one week of hell in the middle of the semester. Little did I know that midterms actually mean about two months of exams, papers and stress. And no one knows stress better than the always overextended Rory from "Gilmore Girls."

If you're also struggling to see the end of this semester's midterm season, I'm sure you can relate.

1. When you finally check your schedule and realize just how many exams you have coming up.

2. Realizing your friends are all going to be done with midterms way before you are.

3. Having to spend the entire weekend holed up in a library instead of going out or doing anything fun.

4. When your exam starts before 10:00 a.m. and you start to doubt your brain's ability to function.

5. Or even worse, when your exams are at night after a full day of classes and you start to question how much caffeine is too much caffeine to consume in one day.

6. And when your friends try to cheer you up and boost your confidence with compliments, but you know that you are beyond help.

7. Whenever your friends don't have an exam coming up and they invite you to hang out, but you remember how many things you have left to do.

8. Coming to the realization that there are just not enough hours in the day to cram and wondering which basic necessity you have to sacrifice today.

9. After you finally finish your midterms but then someone asks you about finals, your summer plans, and your career goals.

10. But the truth is, as bad as it gets, it just makes it feel so much better when you're finally done!

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.
