The First Week Of Classes As Told By 'The Office'

The First Week Of Classes As Told By 'The Office'

Well, its that time of year again, back to school! Classes have started and most of us couldn't be sadder. Another year of college means another year of drowning under pounds and pounds of work. The first week is always the easiest before diving straight into hours of lectures, and no one could explain it better than my favorite people of 'The Office'.


Blowing out the Sunday before classes begin.


Entering this school year with at least one year of college under your belt.


…But going to your first class and not understanding one thing.


Realizing that scheduling that 8 a.m. was the worst idea ever.




When the professor pronounces your name wrong.



Introducing yourself during an awkward class ice breaker.


When you discover your friends are in the same class with you.



Sprinting across campus to get to your next class.



Walking into the wrong class.


When you spot the annoying kid who asks a trillion questions.



When your professor gives homework during syllabus week.



“You will be required to {write a 10-page research paper, give a 30-minute speech, or present a 50-plus slide presentation} during this course.”



Rethinking taking 15+ credit hours.


When the professor says your final will be optional.




Dealing with Financial Aid.


Mentally counting the days until the end of the 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.
