The First Week Of College As Told By Michael Scott

Most college campuses across the nation are now in full swing and have ended the first week of classes. In honor of this, I have decided to compile the general thoughts of most students as told by who other than the illustrious manager of the Scranton branch of Dunder-Mifflin, Michael Scott, the world's best boss.

When the professor keeps you the whole time the first day.


Dealing with Financial Aid.


"You have a project due next week."


"I'm going to class every day this semester."


"Please source all research material."


Freshmen at their first college party.


Everyone else at parties.


Seeing your ex on campus.


That moment when you see how much your books will cost.


No empty parking spaces, seats, or washing machines. Ever.


Mandatory dorm meetings.


False interest in many campus organizations.


Freshmen.


"Does anyone have any questions?"


Hearing the alarm for an 8 a.m.


Finding out your friend saved all the tests and notes for your MWF.


Waiting on your refund check just to blow it on something useless.


When your phone is dry the first weekend.


"I didn't go out on a Monday."


Making new friends.


Waking up late for class.


When you see your friends after being apart all summer.


When you discover a herd of elephants live above you.


Making it through week one, but you still have the rest of the semester.

Good luck on the semester, all. I hope this brightens up your first week! Just remember graduation is just $75,000 in loans and three changes in majors away!

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.
