Going from living in a dorm room to your home town is a rollercoaster of emotions.

1. There is no way I had this much stuff in my tiny dorm room


You don't know how it happened...but somehow managed to fit your whole life in half of a dorm room for a whole semester

2. Not needing flip flops to shower is the best feeling in the world.

Walking straight from your room to the shower without putting on shoes is a feeling you missed more than anything.

3. I hate not being able to hang out with all my friends in a dorm room until 4 am.

Sadly, when you come home most of your new friends are 100's of miles away...not 100 feet away

4. I forgot how boring life is when you don't have class anymore.

What is there to do now that you no longer have tons of papers and tests.....besides work of course.

5. It’s crazy not to pregame in a dorm just to drink more at a frat party every weekend.

Although you may still be going to parties every weekend, no party is like a dorm or frat party.

6. What do I do with all this free time??

You have no more classes, none of your friends are in the next building anymore, and you don't know what to do with yourself.

7. I forgot there was more food out there other than ramen and the dining halls six choices.

Real food is a blessing and dining hall food will not be missed.

8. I forgot how amazing my queensized bed is.

Any bed is better than the cinderblock twin bed colleges give you.

9. I never want to leave my dog again.

Nothing is better than waking up to kisses from your dog.

10. Oh shit I can't swear as much in public!

When you aren't living in a college town people don't tend to appreciate constant swearing.

11. Holy fuck I miss my friends.

Although you have friends back home, the ones you made at college are beyond important and too far away for the next 3 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.
