With many college semesters coming to a close, students find themselves procrastinating. You may even be procrastinating right now while you read this article! So, here is an account for how your finals week may have went or will be going as your final days left in school come to an end. Happy finals week!

Friday (before finals):

Last night to party with friends. Poor attempt at coping with finals, but hey, you can't think about that biology exam anymore, you're just numbing your pain.

Saturday Morning:

So. Much. Regret. *Goes back to sleep*

Saturday Afternoon:

The studying begins….

Saturday night:

You reward yourself for studying and consume so much pizza that it actually consumes you.

Sunday Morning:

Kelsey mentioned chocolate chip pancakes. How do you pass that up?

Sunday Afternoon, approximately 3 p.m.:

Pre-studying study break at Starbucks. You need the energy to get through the next few hours.

Sunday Night, approximately 6PM:

Haven't done anything all day… Time to start cramming.

Monday morning:

You show up to your 8 a.m. final with about three hours of sleep, no coffee and only half of the information you studied readily available in your mind.

Monday night, approximately 11 p.m.:

Studying for seven hours straight, slightly brain dead and disoriented.

Tuesday Morning:

Those awful seven hours of studying paid off, definitely aced that exam.

Tuesday Night:

You've been studying all day and still don't understand the majority of the terms. Screaming is absolutely inevitable.

Wednesday Afternoon:

Those two exams just stripped you of your pride. Your brain hurts. Today is not OK.

Wednesday Night:

Your friends are all done with their finals and you still have one more to go. They're leaving and you're the last one of the group left at school.

Thursday afternoon:

You didn't study enough and you're pretty sure that last final dropped your grade at least 10 percent.

Thursday Night:

You’ve finished packing and found out you passed all of your classes!

Friday Morning:

The fam bam is here, and you sadly wave good bye to your dorm room.

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.
