Senior Year As Told By FRIENDS

Wishing you could just be on a break from school at this point

Senior Year As Told By FRIENDS

The past four years have honestly been a blur. Good times, bad times, stressed times, broke times, more stressed times. The end is so close yet so far away and you're constantly torn between being excited and sad. And who better to describe all of your thoughts better than the one, the only, the cast of Friends.


Try as you might, your pick up lines, your DMs, they mean nothing. It's been four years and you still have no game.

You would do just about anything for money. Sell your plasma, sell your friend's plasma, sell all of your clothes, volunteer yourself to the school's research department. Anything to get money from anyone.


You're tired. You're exhausted. You're burned out. You can't think anymore. You reaaaalllly want to just drop out and live in a box. But you can't. Because you're so close to the end.

You wake up everyday and question your intelligence. You can barely take care of yourself let alone other people.

You feel like everyone around you is accomplishing all these great things! Like they're really doing big things with their life. Meanwhile, you're eating pizza for dinner for the fourth night in a row.

Sometimes laying around is just truly more worth going to the gym.


When all of your ideas go to shambles and you feel like your life is falling apart... and you're only in your 20s.

Anytime anyone asks you what you're doing after graduation you want to take a fork to your eyes.

And you can only hope by the time you put that cap and gown on, you'll be past all of the worry.

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.
