The Summer After Freshman Year Of College: As Told By New Girl

Starting college was one of the best things that has ever happened to me. But, if you are anything like me and feel like your freshman year was actually just three minutes, or you're a fan of New Girl (which you should be), I 10/10 recommended reading.

1. Realizing that your first year of college is actually over: You are getting old and it is scary.

2. But not really caring BECAUSE IT'S FINALLY SUMMER: No homework = hibernating for the next three months in hopes of getting tan.

3. Accidentally running into people from high school is your worst nightmare: Avoid going out in public at all costs.

4. People ask what your plans are for the summer: Not much to be honest, probably a lot of sleeping, eating, and Netflix, and more eating. No I don't have an internship, and probably will not have a job either (just kidding yes you should get a job).

5. Example A: Summer plans include errands and a smoothie.

6. You can finally eat a meal without using your school ID: You realized that mom's dinners were actually so much better than dorm food.

7. After a year of living without parents, any question about your plans for the night are too much: Can I just go to chipotle without being interrogated?

8. If anyone tries to ask how your first year of college was: I don't know, I had a few over-nighters, 3-7 mental breakdowns, don't remember any weekend, and might have made it to the gym once. But, I am alive, so who is complaining?

9. Overall, you are just happy that you did it: Being done with the first of college a great feeling, and it is time to celebrate.

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.
