The Days of Syllabus Week

The Days of Syllabus Week

The first week of school is always an interesting one. It is a culmination of excite but also despair in our lives. Let's take a day by day look at the week of this wonderful week we all know as "syllabus week".

Sunday

It's the day before the first day of the semester and you are excited. You have finally moved back into your living habitats, whether that is a dorm or an apartment and you are ready to experience yet another year with your friends. You can hardly wait and you already have everything bought in terms of materials and other goodies. Let the semester begin.

Monday

For some stupid reason you decided on adding a class at 8 AM on the first day of class and let's just say you aren't exactly the happiest about that. Regardless, you pull yourself out of bed and deal with listening to the ever monotonous overviews of syllabus papers that are thrown your way. As the day comes to an end you only want to go home and party with your friends... which you do a lot.

Tuesday

Let's just say that you drank a little too much last night and your head as well as your liver isn't having it. As you drag yourself to your first class of the day you are once again bombarded with syllabus after syllabus for the classes you are taking. Is it the weekend yet?

Wednesday

Today is different, you have already had these classes on Monday so you already sort of know how they work but at the same time you have already been given gratuitous amounts of homework. Hump day is over at least!

Thursday

You can feel the weekend approaching and you are already thinking of your plans for it with all of your friends, but you soon realized that you had a homework assignment due today that you completely forgot about. Better luck next time.

Friday

The week may as well already be over. You have survived the first week of school, which is undoubtedly the easiest but nonetheless you are proud. Let the weekend of partying commence!

Saturday

With the weekend in full swing, you are thrilled by the fact that you are finally back. It's almost overwhelming. But alas, you feel Sunday coming around and with it the new week. At that moment however, you quickly realize that that means another weekend as well.

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.
