Second Semester: As Told By 'How I Met Your Mother'
Media Salon

Summer is fast approaching. For me that means exactly 36 days, 22 hours, and 22 minutes from now I will be on my way home... But who’s counting anyways? Lucky for us, our feelings can easily be described by our friends Tedd, Robin, Barney, Lily, and Marshall or better know as the cast from “How I Met your Mother,”.

The motivation to do your work slips away after a week of class


And you aren't sure if you should actually go to your lecture or just stay in bed all day and avoid responsibility.


You realize you've spent all your money from last semester on food.


As the beginning of April approaches, your professors are already talking about the final and how you should start studying early and not 24 hours before.


And since you have so much time left, you decide to go out with your friends every night.


Even when your parents call to ask if you've been studying hard.


And it finally hits you that you should probably be putting a little bit more effort.


So you lock yourself in a room in the library to get some work done.


And pray that you don't have a mental breakdown from all the stress you're now putting yourself under.


By the time finals roll around you're afraid your head might explode with the plethora of knowledge you've forced yourself to learn in the past few weeks.

And during your final presentation you're convinced you'll forget everything you've learned.


But everything falls into place when you finish with the satisfaction that you worked hard to pass your classes so you can finally go home and celebrate.

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.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

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.
