The Things After Finals week

How finals week makes me feel:

First off, I want to say that no one wants it to be finals week because it drags on and on. But there are so many good things that happen after finals week. Here is a list of all the good things that will happen after finals week

You get to go home

Because being hours away makes you miss your hometown.

You get home-cooked food

We all know that Mom is the best cook ever.

You do not have to worry about school

No more papers, tests or even pop quizzes to stress about.

You get to see family

We all thought that we would not miss these guys as much as we do.

You get to drive around a familiar road

Nothing beats driving down the first road you saw that cute boy back when you first got your license.

You can binge watch Netflix without the stress

I mean we all watched Netflix when we had millions of other things to do.

You get to see your hometown friends

Talk about a high school reunion, we can catch up on the good old days.

When you're sick you have your parents to take care of you

It sucked having to make your own chicken noodle soup.

You can catch up on more naps without missing class this time

I mean... need I say more?

NO MORE SHOWER SHOES

Why did the mushroom get an invite to the party? Because he was a fungi!

No more lofted beds

No one likes climbing into a bed after a long day, it is not fun but it is the college experience, right?

No more fighting over parking spots

"You do not even go here... HOW DID YOU GET A GOOD SPOT!?"

Your hometown restaurants are back!

They know your order and they missed your smiling face... because you order a number five with extra cheese.

Can someone say no more Ramen?

Nothing against 15 cent dinners, but after awhile your skin smells like Ramen.

Your pets are back and they missed you

Like where did you go? Your bed is here but you aren't... NEVER LEAVE ME AGAIN!!!

No more waiting on a washer and dryer

BECAUSE YOU HAVE YOUR MOM TO DO IT! Just kidding...but am I really?

No more communal bathrooms

Finally, I can pee in peace!

No more noisy neighbors

Like, it is 2 a.m. Do you have to wear shoes made of bricks? Are you moving a herd of bulls at this time at night?

You feel like an adult, but you can now have your kid time

I mean, I adulted for eight months, can we go back to napping and eating every two hours?

You realize that it has only been a day and you miss your friends already

I mean they became your second family and you love them very much with your heart.

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.
