The 10 Professors You'll Have In College

1. The professor that teaches at warp speed.

This professor has got a lot to teach and is always putting something on your plate. There is enough material for 3 hours worth of class shoved into a 50 minute period. Good luck trying to take notes on anything he says. Most of the time you'll be getting a hand cramp or end up with an illegible mess of notes.

2. The professor that always talks too quiet.

You'll learn this on day one, the day where almost the whole class shows up and your forced to sit in the back of the room. The teacher will be giving out important dates for the rest of the semester and you'll be so far away that you won't even know they are talking. Next class you'll sit at the front of the room, still struggling to hear anything the professor is saying.

3. The professor that assumes you know everything already.

When this professor asks a question the whole room goes silent. Nobody knows the answer, but no one wants to admit they don't know. This professor is usually extremely intelligent, but struggles trying to explain complicated topics to the class.

4. The professor that still uses an overhead projector.

Yep, Old School. Usually wearing some classic sweater vest, extra-high rise pants, and suspender combination. They handwrite all their notes on a blank slide and has never used PowerPoint in their life. This professor can be an oldie, but a goodie.

5. The professor that is near impossible to pass.

Good luck trying to pass this class, let alone get an 'A'. This class may be one of the hardest you will have throughout your whole college career, but you'll also learn more in it than in any of your other classes. This professor will most likely be coined as the one who ruined your GPA, but ten years down the line you'll be thanking them for how much important information you learned during the class.


6. The professor that always gives out life lessons.

This professor is out to change the world. They are doing their best to inspire students to be good people, make a change in the world or simply be happy. Regardless, this professor is always in a good mood and ready to help whenever possible.


7. The professor that always cracks jokes.

You're in the middle of the semester, stressed out of your mind. You're swamped with upcoming tests, essays, projects and research papers yet this is the one professor that always keeps things lighthearted. This professor gives you a break from your growing responsibilities and shows you that learning can be fun.

8. The professor that loves teaching

You'll know this professor from day one. They truly want you to learn and take away valuable information from the class over being worried about you completing all 17 papers and 4 exams by the end of this semester. Cherish this professor, as they will have a lot of compassion toward their students.

9. The professor that keeps you coming to class.

Engaging, relevant, and moving at a steady rate. The combination for a perfect college class. This professor has got it all down, along with one of the largest attendance rates around campus. Everyone seems to anonymously enjoy coming to this class, and the majority of the students pass with flying colors.

10. The professor that will always remember your name.

Now this doesn't make the professor any better at teaching, but it will help you to feel more comfortable around them and make you more likely to visit their office hours. In a class of 300 students, it makes you feel good that the teacher acknowledges you and remembers your name.

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.
