The 13 Stages Of Class Registration
Her Campus

Every college student hates hearing these two words: class registration. They honestly should just rename it to the hunger games. It is actually amazing how much stress this puts on students. You are competing with however many students in the school for a limited number of seats. In some cases, you log on the day before you register and there's 1 seat left in the class you want. Awesome. Every school has their own way of setting up of who registers when, but no matter what it is STRESSFUL. The stakes are high and the tolerance is very low during class registration season, and may the odds be in your favor.

1. Getting that email from your advisor that says "Class registration information."


2. Trying to go and book an appointment with your advisor, but all their appointments are full.

3. FINALLY getting to see your advisor and begging them to tell you what you actually need to take.

4. A week before your time ticket and you start making the perfect schedule cause there are actually seats left.

5. But then logging in a few days later and having to change every single class because all the seats just disappeared.

6. When your friends want you to be in the same class as them, but there are 3 of you and 2 seats left in the class.

7. The night before you are supposed to register and you write down back up courses like a mad man in case you don't get into your first choices.

8. Waking up the morning of registration.

9. Waiting for the clock to hit the time that you are supposed to register.

10. What banner probably says when the clock strikes registration time.

Now, there are two ways registration can go.

11a. When you get into your classes with no problem and go straight to bed.

OR

11b. When you have to sprint all the way across campus to advising because you got into ZERO classes.

But everyone goes through these next steps

12. A few hours later when you start comparing schedules with your friends and you don't have any classes with them.

13. And then you try to switch in but the class is full.

No matter how your registration experience went, this is how we all felt afterwards.

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.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

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.
