8 Summer School Feels We Can Relate To, All Summer Long
Amanda Brennan

In This Article:

Between having full, maxed out semester schedules during the school year, the last thing us college students want to do is sign up to take more classes during the warm summer months that were made for fun, sun, and relaxation. But, if it means graduating in four years, I guess it's what has to happen. At least we can all struggle together and bond over the fact that we are all in this together.

"Why. Did. I. Sign. Up. For. This?"

I guess it could be worse?

"It's better than taking it during the school year."

Optimism...right?

"Well, at least I can use Google on the tests."

Helping us get that A...right!?

"Ugh, I wish I had friends in this class."

Thoughts such as, "I wonder what others thought of the test", or "how much did my peers write for number four?" could be easily answered if I could just text someone for help and advice!

"I wonder how much I can get done in one night..."

It's fine, I'm fine, I can do homework, two quizzes, and a test before 11:59.

"Okay, if I do an hour now, some at work, I can come home and be done by midnight."

Time management right...work, class, sleep, work, class, sleep...in no particular order…

"How many new coffee shops can I find?"

Wait, when did that corner get a Starbucks? Don't we already have like 20 in this town?

"Can I watch Netflix and do homework at the same time?"

Multi-tasking to the extreme!

You got this! Don't let anything get in your way...Google is there to help you get that A! Keep on top of deadlines and balance some fun into your crazy schedule too!

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.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

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.

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.
