The Week Before Spring Break As Told By 'New Girl'

We all know how this one goes.

The Week Before Spring Break As Told By 'New Girl'
Netflix Life

It has arrived. The week before the week of freedom and sunshine and fun and laughter and no stress and friends — the week before spring break. Here's how the week before spring break goes, as told by "New Girl" (and all of us college kids).

Sunday

Wooo! Since it's still the weekend, there's no need to stress about all of your exams for the following week just yet. So instead, you day dream about your spring break plans.

Later on that night, your friends come over for movie night. They begin to talk about how hard they've been working out for their spring break bods, and you realize you haven't been working out at all. Looks like you'll be wearing a onesie all week am I right?

Monday

You wake up late for your 8 a.m. (typical), and as your rushing to go to class, it hits you that you actually have five more days until spring break can even begin... Oh boy.

After class, you start to study, but you end up online shopping for polka dot bikinis for the rest of your time today... It's Monday — you still have time to get everything done for the week.

Tuesday

You wake up at 2 a.m. remembering those three exams you have before the end of the week.

You "study all day."

Then you try to remember the last day you had time to shave your legs. You get to two weeks ago and lose track. So that's what you do as a study break.

But wait there's more, you still have grocery shopping to do and dinner to eat before you can go to sleep.

Now you hit the "oh crap" stage when you remember you also have a group assignment due at midnight.

Wednesday

Hump day baby. Exams one and two of the week are today. You get to the first question of the first exam and grasp the fact that you did not prepare well enough.

You tell yourself everything is going to be okay and that grades are not eternal.

And eat your feelings.

And then the actual meltdown begins.

Thursday

Today is the day that your inability to focus really comes into play. You decide that you have fractured your motivation.

Your mom texts you a picture of your dogs and says, "they can't wait to see you!" You cry because you just want to be home.

Friday

One more exam, then you're free. You go to class and sit in your seat. When your professor passes out the scantrons, you bubble in random answers on your entire exam.

But you just shrug it off, because you survived the week! This is the day you have waited for all semester long. You grab your keys, lock the door to your dorm, and skip all the way to your car from sheer joy because you are getting to drive home.

IT'S TIME TO PARTAAAAYYYYY

but in reality, your Spring Break actually goes more like this. But hey, it's spring break, and you're allowed to be as much of a lazy bum as you want. You, my friend, are a freaking rockstar.

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.
