Soccer season lasts a long time. From the beginning of the pre-season, to the championship game, any team will surely encounter highs and lows, reasons to celebrate, obstacles to overcome, inside jokes, favorite memories and one-of-a-kind shenanigans. Luckily, the characters on from the popular TV show "The Office" encounter all of these things as well and can help relate to the rest of the world exactly how these occurrences make soccer players feel.

1. When you're exhausted and coach is trying to motivate you.

2. When a player on the other team pulls the same move on you twice.

3. When the loser of a drill gets extra fitness.

4. When friends challenge your pre-game rituals.

5. When you don't want to shake the other team's hands after the game.

6. When you try to shake the other team's hand, but they're not having it.

7. Scouting the other team like:

8. Warming up for mid-afternoon games in the summer, on turf, when the heat index rises above 100 degrees.

9. When you show up to tryouts.

10. When you know you have a fitness practice tomorrow morning.

11. You want me to run a suicide in how many seconds?

12. Congregating with your teammates after committing a card-worthy foul.

13. When you take a hard shot to the thigh in below-freezing temperatures (it's worth it for the bruise, though!


14. When your coach decides to tape the game.

15. When you haven't hit the net all practice.


16. When you see visiting players from the other team in the bathroom before the game.

17. When you see your teammates for the first time after offseason.

18. When coach says, "Get on the line."


19. When your teammate has to leave mid-game and go to the ER for a broken bone, chipped tooth, or concussion.

20. When you have pit stains after practice, but have to go out into public.

21. Every time you have to tell your friends, "I can't, I have soccer."


22. And every time you celebrate the victories won, lessons learned or friendships made playing the game you love.

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.
