The Struggles Of Scheduling Classes

Scheduling classes can be rough sometimes.

It's that time of the year again... time to schedule classes and sometimes that can suck

1. Figuring out the classes you should take this semester

Thankfully there are degree audits and advisors. The degree audits show what you have left to take to get your degree. And your advisor should be there to help you make the decisions as to what to take.

2. Finding time to meet with your advisor

Finding time to meet with your advisor sucks when you have a lot of homework, exams, and club events. But making time to talk to your advisor is best.

3. Choosing your classes

Choosing your classes after meeting with your advisor can be interesting. Sometimes what you want to take is different than what you should take to stay on track to graduate.

4. Getting shut out of a class

Sometimes classes fill up super quickly and it sucks being the one on the end of being on the waiting list.

5. Trying to get in a class you are on the waiting list for

Sometimes when you are on a waitlist, you manage to get into that class and sometimes not. If you don't get in by the time classes start, it is sometimes hard to get in. Some professors will be alright with letting you in a class and others will not let you in.

6. Re-doing your schedule

When you don't get into a class that you need or want, sometimes you have to re-arrange your schedule. that can be hard sometimes.

7. If you happen to fail or not do well in a class....

If you happen to not do well in a class, you will have to take it over, and it is hard to do when you already have your schedule set for next semester

8. re-doing your schedule again.

Re-doing your schedule again is not the best thing in the world. But you may end up with a good schedule.

My advice to younger students is to try your best to get into the classes you want, but it's not the end of the world if you don't. And a bit of advice, it gets easier to schedule the higher you go up in ranking.

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.
