20 Thoughts You Have While Packing For College
Huffington Post

College is just around the corner. Most of you have probably already gone, but if you’re a late leaver like me, the realization of how much you still have to do in the next two days is hitting you like a ton of bricks. Although you’ve probably asked yourself (and your mother) 500 questions already, here are some of the top twenty statements college students probably say while packing the day before they leave.

1. How is all of this going to fit in the car?

2. Do I really have to bring all of this cleaning supplies?

3. No mom, fifteen T-shirts is not enough for an entire semester.

4. Yes, I know there is a washing machine.

5. What if I decide to dress up for class?

6. Is this can opener really necessary?

7. Am I really going to want to eat all these healthy snacks I bought yesterday?

8. Do I have enough command strips to hang all of this?

9. What if they lose my stuff when they carry it up?

10. Will I have enough room for all of this in my dorm?

11. Six dresses ought to be enough, right?

12. I’m definitely going to need all four of these makeup palettes.

13. You can never take too many athletic shorts, right?

14. Do I really have room for these giant rain boots?

15. What if it gets cold before I come home for fall break?

16. Did I pack my toothbrush already?

17. Why did I pack so much makeup?

18. This is never going to fit in the car or in my room

19. I think I’m forgetting everything.

20. There’s a Target close to campus, right?

Welcome to college kids, there’s nothing more fun than trying to shove your whole life into one car while saying goodbye to everyone around you. Enjoy.

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.
