In high school, every campus tour guide told me that college goes by so quickly and to enjoy every moment because it'll be over before I know it. I didn't believe them at the time, but now that I am a semester-and-a-half out of graduation, I now know that that is true. You see in the moment college goes by so slowly. But looking back, it went by very quickly. So, here are 15 thoughts I have about graduating in May.

1. "Wow, time flies."

2. "I can't wait to start working and doing something I love."

3. "Where am I going to live after graduation?"

4. "I need to start applying for jobs now."

5. "Oh, God, I do not want to work in customer service for the rest of my life."

6. "Am I even adult enough to live on my own?"

7. "Will I have to pay for my own Netflix after I leave the house?"

8. "What if my graduation application isn't accepted?"

9. "It doesn't matter what happens, I will be graduating in May."

10. "I can't believe I'm going to be done with school after 20 years."

11. "I hope I picked the right major."

12. "I hope I can find a job that I can use my degree at."

13. "There are so many unknowns about my future, and yet I'm so excited."

14. "I can't wait to make money and have more than $30 in my savings account."

15. "I can't wait for my life to truly start in the next few months."

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.
