Beginning Of The Semester As Told By "One Tree Hill"
WB

February is here, winter break is over, and it's time to get back into the swing of school. Of course, that means a new semester with new professors, new schedules, and new opportunities. Everyone's favorite residents of Tree Hill, N.C. have been through it all. From basketball championships to kidnappings, they've lived the most exciting, yet simultaneously mundane, lives ever. So clearly, they know all too well what the beginning of the semester is like.

1. The first night of syllabus week.

2. Realizing the professor who got great reviews is actually going to be the bane of your existence.

3. Being told "the readings are mandatory."

4. When the bars are too crowded the first weekend.

5. Realizing syllabus week is over and you actually have to do things.

6. When people take the seat you picked on the first day.

7. Being assigned groups in class.

8. Re-adjusting to life without your mom's cooking.

9. When your only friend in the class drops it.

10. Asking a question in class and being told "it's on the syllabus."

11. Thinking about how much you miss your dog.

13. Returning to your favorite bars and restaurants around campus.

14. Missing your friends who went abroad.

15. Trying to get used to your new, jam-packed schedule.

16. When your professor confidently calls you by the wrong name.

17. Seriously considering dropping out.

18. Sitting down to write your first big assignment.

19. Realizing the horrendous toll the new semester will ultimately take on your GPA.


20. But then you call home and get the reassurance you need to keep going.

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.
