Student + Dying = Studying

Test week...

Books

So to get this started. It is test week and homegirl stresses out A LOT. I had three test and two quizzes due this week. My test were Monday at 4:45, Tuesday at 12:30, and Thursday at 11. My quizzes were due Wednesday by 8 and Friday by 5. And this was not even the worst part of my week.

Sunday and all day Monday I was studying for my business cal test. I was extremely stressed out because this class is not very hard (to me at least), so i was worried I'd get to the test and make stupid mistakes because I knew the material so well. Turns out I was stress about nothing and make a 95 on the test. I was still kind of upset because the one I missed was me just being stupid and reading the graph wrong.

My next test was Tuesday at 12:30. This class was microeconomics and I was very unprepared for this test. I had studied all Monday night and Tuesday morning. I walk into my class, which is a huge auditorium, and sit in the same general area like every Tuesday and Thursday. Turns out I accidentally sit in a guys seat but he moves and of course, I felt like a terrible person because i just stole this kids seat. Anyways, we get probably ten minutes into the test and my friend Darby grabs my arm. So I looked at her, and the dude that I stole his seat is having a seizure. I stood up really fast and then the teacher left the room to go call the police.

Well, this poor boy continued to seize for maybe a minute and a half. There were other students in the class that knew CPR and what to do with him. Some guy stuck his fingers in the boy's mouth and he almost bit his fingers off. Then the boy bit his tongue and started bleeding. It was probably the scariest thing I have ever witnessed. Long story short, the guy is okay and my test got pushed back. The rest of the week was pretty much a blur because I was still in shock from the guy having a seizure.

This shows that studying can really people out and cause a lot of anxiety. It would be so much better if the professors did not schedule all these tests the same week. But try your best not to get stressed and start worrying because it is not worth it. Get sleep and make sure you eat!!

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.
