Summer Internships, As Told By 'Bob's Burgers'

It's that time of year, again.

Summer Internships, As Told By 'Bob's Burgers'

You would think that summer, for college students, is basically heaven. No more school, no more early classes, or even late classes and no terrible school food either.

But weirdly that's not the case for a lot of college students, who are trying their hardest to work even more over the summer with an internship. Hopefully, if you get lucky, it's paid (let's not joke around, it's probably not). And on top of that, it's not surprising that interns, even the paid ones, won’t walk away with much pocket change when they return to school. According to Kenneth Tsang, a research associate at the National Association of Colleges and Employers (NACE), "typically, computer science majors get about $20 an hour in a paid internship, liberal arts majors about $15".

Let's talk about summer internships, because I know a lot of us are dealing with them, and I definitely know a lot of us are extremely sick of the search, the conversations, and the bullsh*t.

1. Struggling to make your resume as professional as possible.

2. Waiting to hear back from your top place...or any place.

3. Getting nervous to the point of going crazy when nobody is reaching out to you.

4. Trying to look your best to get that internship!

5. Being ready to wow the socks off that employer.

6. Just kidding, you went to the wrong place! Or maybe you didn't?

7. Realizing the adult world, and adults, is pretty scary.

8. Sometimes you'll get rejected.

9. And sometimes, the only places that want you, you don't want.

10. But you'll definitely get at least one you love! One day?

11. But at least you have a bunch of your peers to complain to!

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.
