1. The motivation stage

You’re motivated to do well on all of your exams, and you’re willing to put in the effort to make that happen.

2. The "I have time" stage

You still wanna ace these tests, but you have plenty of time.

3. The actually studying stage

You're basically a genius. You don't know why people think studying is so bad.

4.The misery stage

You now realize why people think studying is so bad. You begin to wonder if it's even worth it.


5. The "treat yo self!" stage

You decide to reward yourself for all the studying you've been doing. After all, mental health is important too. Is it okay to watch three episodes of Netflix for every four flashcards memorized?


6. The "no more fooling around, I have to study" stage

You really mean it this time.

7. The procrastination stage

You'll get it done, it's fine. There's still plenty of time.

8. The mental breakdown stage

You just can't take it anymore, and you feel like you're going to fail.

9. The procrastination stage...again

You feel like you're going to fail...but you still have plenty of time to study. Right..?

10. The "Oh my gosh, my test is tomorrow" stage

You enter a state of panic and frantically hit the books.

11. The all-nighter stage

You are the most focused you've ever been, and nothing will get in between you and your studying. (Until you fall asleep at your desk.)

12. The test taking stage

You actually feel prepared, and like the studying paid off.

13. The "I didn't study this" stage

You actually feel prepared... until you flip over the page and there are seven questions on the one thing you happened to skip while studying.


14. The party stage

No matter how you did on your finals, they're out of the way. Time to have fun!

15. The waiting stage

Anxiously waiting to find out your grades, praying for a miracle.

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.
