Every year, thousands of high school and college students throughout the country promise themselves that this year will be their year. They say they're going to take perfectly outlined, color coded notes, spend hours on their homework each night, and study religiously in order to get straight A's. For most students, they are able to keep to their word for the first week of school but then they start to get either bored or lazy and everything starts to go downhill. Here's what is normally looks like:

Note Taking:

First Week:

Second Week:

Eventually, the energy to write such neat, organized notes just isn't worth it anymore.

Attire:

First Week:

Second Week:

Putting on nice, uncomfortable clothes doesn't make sense when you're just going to sit at a desk all day anyway. Sweats are not only more comfortable, but they're a lot easier as well.

Homework:

First Week:

Second Week:

Due tomorrow = do tomorrow. Netflix is a lot more enjoyable anyway.

In-Class Participation:

First Week:

Second Week:

Participation only counts as five percent of the grade, right?

Supplies:

First Week:

Second Week:


I don't know how I lost an entire pack of pencils in one week, they just disappeared. I can steal my roommate's school supplies if need be.

Enthusiasm:

First Week:

Second Week:

Oh well, only three months until break. I can still manage to get by without a 4.0 gpa.

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.
