As told by "New Girl"

Struggles Of Traveling

Every college student knows the struggle of getting from place to place when you're on campus without a car, or a clue. While we are fortunate to have things like Skype and Facebook to communicate, nothing compares to good old face to face contact with the people you care about. Thus, we takes planes, trains, and buses at ridiculous hours to make the trek to see our loved ones. Here's a more detailed account of the struggles of traveling long distances on a college student's budget, courtesy of the cast of "New Girl"!

1. You attempt to fit all your belongings in one carry on to avoid extra fees.

2. No matter how prepared you thought you were, you inevitably get lost, confused or stressed when you arrive at the station.

3. You try not draw attention to yourself but manage to bump into and trip over everyone in your path.

4. Once you're settled in your seat, you make an effort to act socially acceptable.

5. But you slowly realized sitting still is not your thing.

6. You struggle to entertain yourself.

7. There are always some kids who just really get on your nerves.

8. You start to get some really weird cravings.

9. You switch your phone to airplane mode to avoid anxious texts from the 'rents.

10. You finally arrive safely at your destination.

11. When you see the person you came for, it all becomes worth it.

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.
