Going Back to School, Told By 'Harry Potter'

We go through this every year. The end of summer & beginning of school. At least Harry Potter goes through the same thing.

Going Back to School, Told By 'Harry Potter'
Huffington Post

Here we are again, another summer come and gone. It seems to go so quickly, yet so slowly at the same time. Despite that, I know that most people are dreading the idea of school and class and work again. We go through it every year, but it doesn't seem to get any easier. Summer has been a dream and now it is time to wake up. Here's a look at that cycle of transition from summer vacation to returning to school ... as shown by "Harry Potter."

1. When you're on summer vacation...


2. When someone starts to mention that school is coming back soon...


3. When you start to realize that school really is coming back within just a few weeks & that your summer is basically over...


4. When you realize that all you did was eat this summer and your "beach bod" is not ready to see all of your classmates, who you haven't seen for 3 months...

5. When you realize that you didn't do anything on your bucket list this summer, so you desperately try to pack the last few weeks with cool things to do...

6. When you start to own up to the idea of going back to school, and almost get excited about shopping for all new stuff (i.e. school supplies, dorm materials, etc.)

7. When you start to receive emails from professors with your textbook requirements and maybe even reading assignments...

8. When you have to pack all of your stuff up...

9. When you have to say goodbye to your parents, your house, and your pets for another semester...

10. When you see your friends again and know that it won't be SO bad...

11. When you see annoying people that you had tried hard to forget over the summer...

12. When you start classes and get bombarded with work...

13. When you sit in class & start counting down the days until your next break...


And thus, the cycle continues, year after year... always.

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.
