I hope you know that you’re not alone if you still don’t know what the f*** you’re doing, we're all right there with you

Sentiments From An Overtired and Overemotional College Senior

Here we are, you beautiful humans. We made it. Three years down and one to go (236 days to be exact). We are on the downhill slide friends. Get in all the drinking till you pass out, the poor decisions, and using the excuse “I’m still in college”, because we all know we’re not alcoholics until we graduate.

I hope you know that you’re not alone if you still don’t know what the f*** you’re doing: we're all right there with you.


It's perfectly normal to question your sanity, your life choices and why the hell you haven't become a stripper yet by the third week of the semester.

If you think your mom should low key be getting a degree in psychology instead of you based on the number of mental breakdowns she has to work you through in a week, you're on the right track.

If you're literally afraid of looking at your bank account and the constant struggle between never wanting to work and needing money, having expensive taste and going out to eat five times a week, you're doing it right.

Due date:11:59PM.

If you get naseous at the thought of getting a grown-up job, applying for grad school, making adult decisions and not being able to turn up on a Tuesday just because, we feel you.

If you think you look like an idiot when you forget where you park after a 50 minute class, you're right on the money, but you're not the only one.

If when listening to opinionated people talk in lectures you wonder how the hell they still have the energy to contribute to discussions and why they still believe they won't get full credit for participation otherwise, you might be ready for graduation.


A couple hundred Dunkin iced coffees, a few heartbreaks, a LOT of booze, four birthdays you don't remember, and enough ramen to end world hunger. College has been one hell of an expensive ride. I promise you're doing far better than you think. Congrats, you made it to senior year. I hope you've learned that it's okay to cry when you run out of hot pockets, Netflix binging should be an olympic sport, and Sundays are for serious H&H (hangovers and homework). Now let's finish this thing and get graduated...hopefully we'll all feel better about adulting by May.

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.
