We all know the feeling of sitting through that last class before you sprint back to your car or to the bus so you can go home for Thanksgiving, but what we try not to think about is the horrendous trip back to school after you're full on turkey.

Here are the top 10 worst things about coming back to school:

1. Say goodbye to home-cooked meals, say hello to the dining hall!

I hope you stocked up on leftovers from home, because you're going back to the same meals you've been eating for the past three months.

2. For most of us, welcome back to your smaller, more uncomfortable bed

Hello, back pain.

3. Roommates.

I hope they don't snore.

4. Set that alarm clock for those morning classes

Rise and shine, people. Rise and shine.

5. I had homework over vacation... sh*t.

Remember that pile that you kind of just put in the corner of your room and pretended to forget about? Yeah, that's all due tomorrow

6. Having to say goodbye to your family, including your furry friends.

Make that last hug tight

7. Don't forget to throw on those flip flops before you shower!

No more showering like a normal, clean human being! Time to put shoes on in the shower.

8. I hope you had fun not working, because your job starts up again Monday night.

Ah, yes. Back to that job that makes takeout possible but also is annoying and boring.

9. You wanted to sleep tonight? Oh, I'm sorry. Your neighbors invited everyone they know over.

No matter how many times you bang on the wall to ask them to shut up, it probably won't work.

10. Oh, yeah. Finals are in two weeks.

Get your study on girlfriend, its go-time.

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.
