The End Of Fall Semester As Told By The West Wing

The end of the fall semester is fast approaching. After Thanksgiving, there will be only a few more weeks until that dreaded finals week is upon us! As college students, we all know how hard it gets during this time of year, and who knows about dealing with the rough stuff better than the cast of The West Wing? Here's what the end of the semester is like as told by The West Wing:

1. You may fall asleep in the library

...several times.

2. Sleep deprivation is no joke


We all get pretty cranky.

3. "I think I passed that exam!"

Take it back! Don't jinx it!

4. You loathe every credit hour you decided to sign up for

5. Run away from fun

There's no time for that

6. Your family will wonder why you aren't more excited about the holidays

It's just that I have 5 exams, 4 papers, and a presentation to give the week after Turkey Day.

7. The professor will decide to assign more homework than ever

It's not like we weren't already swimming in it, right?

8. You wonder why you bother to show up to class

If all we're doing is reviewing our homework, why did I wake up for this?

9. You start stress eating

Or in my case, continue stress eating.

10. When your professor asks what you meant to say in your paper

I don't care if you don't understand it, it made sense at 3am this morning to me so figure it out.

11. Playing off forgetting about deadlines

"What? No! Of course I remembered to submit my thesis yesterday!"

12. Some days are worse than others

13. You will go to extreme lengths to try and extend deadlines

14. Don't even try to keep those sleep-deprived eyes open any longer

Just give in and go to sleep already.

15. Hang in there guys! We're almost there!

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.
