13 Things That Every College Student Does On Break

The long awaited spring break is just around the corner, and not everyone is destined for Punta Cana, Atlantis or Aruba. The rest of us will just have to resort to our own methods of relaxation. So, for those of us who aren't headed on an exotic spring break getaway, here are 12 ways that every college student spends their break.

1. Sleep

The only way you'll survive that post-midterm depression.

2. Watch Netflix

Because if you don't, are you even a college student?

3. Snapchat your dog...

No one is more excited to see you home than your puppy, and he's just so cute that you absolutely have to add him to your story multiple times a day.

4. ...or your cat...

I mean who doesn't want to see a picture of a cute cat...or a thousand.

5. ...or a picture of your car

Likely with the caption "back at it" or "missed this".

6. Hang out with your high school friends 24/7

No one can compare to your original squad. And as every college student knows, going from being surrounded by all your peers to being surrounded by only your family is a real struggle.

7. Experience Roommate Withdrawal

Unless you hate your roommate, in which case, you'll probably celebrate a week roommate free.

8. Celebrate REAL food

Eat,

and eat,

and eat...


9. Until this happens...

What fun is eating unless you stuff yourself until you feel like you literally may explode.

10. Visit your favorite restaurant in your hometown

Only your favorite tiny cafe or mom and pop's diner makes the cut.

11. Spend quality time in your childhood bedroom.

Your childhood bedroom and all of the clothes and stuff you left behind will never go out of style.

12. Cooking for yourself

And not burning down the house. That burnt toast smells only half as delicious as it tastes. No one has to know that you came dangerously close to catching the microwave on fire...

13. Actually spending like five minutes at home.

Because let's be honest. We all go home for break and end up spending a total of five minutes at home.

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.
