How we all feel during finals week.

The Stressful "Last Week" Of The Spring Semester
@juju on Pinterest

The month of May is like a love hate relationship with any college student in any grade. We are all happy that summer is among us, but it also feels like we also might drown in our notes and we also feel like we failed every single final project; resulting in us to stress about every grade until our final's are, finally put in.

Stressed is the one and only word to describe what it feels like to get through the last week of college. I am not sure if we actually get more work to do at this time, or if half of us are just super bad a procrastinating. Either way it feels like a million differnt things are going on at once. First of all we have finals in at least one class and spend our free time stressing over how we are going to prepare and study for it. Then we take the final and assume that we did super bad on it , and we are just convinced that if we don't pass this final we will mist likely just die. Soon after we realize that it will take at least 2-3 days for our professors to finalize grades, but in college time that is equivelant to waiting for like 6 month (or at least that's what it feels like). Meanwhile, we are trying to figure out what courses we need to register for next fall or focusing on graduation. It's a wonder we all don't have super good time management skills by now because this last week basically looks like this:

So, here is to the end of the semester. Many of us are finishing up or have already finished up and have already experienced the frustrating and busy "last week of the spring semester." I defiantly do not remember fall semester being this stressful, but summer is among us! Congrats on finishing another semester; time to start stressing about the next one!

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.
