Starting Your Senior Year Of College, As Told By 'Broad City'
Comedy Central

Two major events will be going down this September. One, I’ll already be in the swing of my senior year of college. And two, the hilarious show that is "Broad City" will be coming back with their fourth season on September 13th. With those two circling in the same time frame, I figured why not let Ilana and Abbi express what it’s like going into your senior year of college. It’ll give us seniors more time to sip on our big cup of denial.

1. You’ve been hearing “Are you excited about your senior year?!” since last semester ended.

Does my face scream excited? I mean, it definitely screams something.

2. The “Are you excited?!” question is usually followed up by the panic-inducing “So, what are you going to do after you graduate?!”

Dude, I don’t know. I barely know what I’m doing in the next 30 minutes.

3. The slightly nervous feeling you felt before each semester is dormant.

Not even poking it with a stick will bring it back. You know this ol’ song and dance all too well by now.

4. You don’t even bother checking your professors on Rate My Professors at this point.

Sometimes professors are chill and sometimes professors are strict. Life is like that sometimes.

5. You procrastinate on getting books and supplies.

Shoutout to Amazon Prime for supporting last minute orders.

6. That little voice in your head that tells you you’re going to dress better and improve your studying skills has already checked out.

7. You already hear other seniors talking about job hunting.

Impressed, but also extremely stressed.

8. With how long you’ve known your advisor, you’re gonna roll up into their office like…

9. There’s always that one family member that will say “I can’t believe you’re a senior.”

You’re not the only one.

10. Reminding yourself that you have to apply for graduation has you like…

11. Hearing “Are you going to get your Masters after you graduate?”

12. You quickly realize everyone is going to handle their senior year differently.

You have your excited seniors, your already super nostalgic seniors, your scared seniors, and your in denial seniors. It’s quite the family.


13. You can practically feel Senioritis breathing down your neck.

Give us at least a week of feeling motivated, man.

14. Despite how in denial you are, you’re not going to let Senioritis get the best of you.

I mean, you’ve gotten this far! That’s pretty amazing in the grand scheme of it all.

15. As overwhelming as this whole journey is, you know you’ve got this. We’ve all got this.

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.
