The Struggles Of An 8 a.m. Class As Told By Tina Fey

The Struggles Of An 8 a.m. Class As Told By Tina Fey

The best thing about college is that unlike high school, you get to pick and choose (most) of your classes that are designed for your chosen major and minor. The unfortunate part is that some of those classes you want and need to take are scheduled for 8 a.m.

For those of you who have an 8 a.m. Monday through Friday, I feel your pain. It sucks. You develop an attachment to your bed, which is why naps become an essential part of your day.

All of your friends will say you nap a lot, but they don't understand how hard it is waking up around 7 a.m. every morning, forcing you to binge drink several cups of coffee before class.

A new semester is approaching, so naturally you get onto schedule builder, and that is when the trouble begins.

A class you need is already full for the 9:30 a.m. time, thus forcing you to sign up for the 8 a.m.


Because you're a brat, and totally not a morning person, you do everything in your power to take this class at a later time.

You obsessively check to see if anyone dropped the class as well as email the professor to get in, but no, you're stuck.


The first day of classes start, woohoo! You're super excited to be in this class to begin with, and in walks one of your classmates with full hair and makeup done.


It is 8 a.m. girlfriend.


Aside from your annoying classmate who thinks she's going to a swap rather than class, it wasn't too bad.

But then you remember the rest of your semester is going to consist of waking up this early every MWF.


A few weeks go by, and you notice there is a cute boy in your class.

You probably didn't know he was there because he's only there about half of the time, but now it gives you motivation to go every time.


Congratulations! You survived yet again another semester full of early classes and sleepless nights.

Your friend asks you if you liked taking the class and want to take the next one in sequence the same time next 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.
