10 Thoughts I Have While Studying

Useless ideas are my specialty, especially when I'm supposed to be studying.

Finals are fast approaching which means that everybody is simultaneously studying, cramming, and dying all at the same time in the same 1 week. When I study, there are only 2 possible outcomes: 1) I study and ace my exams, and 2) my brain instead uses all of its energy to think of the most irrelevant things that will never be of any use to any aspect of my life; there is no in-between. Most of the time, the latter is what happens, and they almost always sound as random as these:

1. Vending machines should have a 'Random' button for people who can't decide what to pick.

2. Prayer beads are basically the first fidget toy.

3. The Big Bang Theory with the laughing track removed is just four people making fun of an autistic person.

4. If we think in terms of language, how do people born deaf think?

5. The phrase “needless to say” is as inherently paradoxical as "President Trump."

6. Why is the alphabet in the order it’s in? Is it just completely arbitrary?

7. In the case that we were to incite World War III, our generation’s Anne Frank would probably be a podcaster with fancy advertisements you hear on STown.

8. Though the universe has a finite amount of matter, Olive Garden offers unlimited soup, salad, and breadsticks.

9. If you were the last person on Earth, you would be average at everything.

10. I get that it’s nearly impossible to believe the there is no life outside of earth, but I sill still be really upset if the aliens found our planet and named it something dumb like ‘Naked Palette 3.'

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.

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

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.
