Syllabus Week, As Told By "The Office"

Michael Scott just gets it.

Syllabus Week, As Told By "The Office"

With its dry humor and wit, "The Office" puts a very interesting take on syllabus week. As a matter of fact, it could not describe this wonderful week more perfectly:

Finally seeing your friends for the first time in a month:

There truly is no greater feeling.


When the professor calls you out for walking in late:

He hasn't seen anything yet.

But then you see a really cute guy/girl in your class and admire them from afar:


Blowing kisses is obviously the best conversation starter.

If the professor is really laid back and chill:


Cherish these professors.

When you pretend to pay attention:

We have all made this face at some point in our lives.

When you first glance at the syllabus:

You're pretty sure you're doomed.

When you actually read the syllabus:

Now you know for sure you're doomed.

When your professor has already had enough of you:

You just don't see eye to eye.

When the professor starts teaching and the whole class is already confused:

Just try not to panic.

Your feelings about your professor:

Need I say more? We all can easily relate to Dwight more often than we would like.

When you see someone sleeping in the library this early in the semester:


This is never a good sign.

When you and your friends try to get a head start on homework but just can't take it seriously:

Sometimes, studying with friends is not always a good thing.

When you realize you can survive this semester with the help of your friends:



Another semester, another syllabus week. We survived it before, we can do it again. Good luck this semester!

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.
