"Welcome Back" To College As Told By Michael Scott
playbuzz

Getting back into the swing of things as the new school year falls upon us can be hard. Who better to help shed light on those feelings we are all experiencing during the first couple weeks back than Michael Scott himself?

1. Waking up, getting dressed and walking to your first class.

Why you gave yourself an 8:00 am on a Monday morning does not make any sense but... here we go.

2. When you realize none of your friends are in your three-hour lecture class.

And then the professor reads every word on every page of the 32-page syllabus.

3. You sit down expecting to have a nice easy first week back, talking about what to expect and what the class is about. When all of a sudden...

Your professor starts going to town on chapter one and you hear that awful utterance "Write this down." ...Well, so much for "Welcome back!"

4. When you flip through the assignment list and you see there is something due every class starting with the next class.

5. Seeing what you owe after FASFA, financial aid and all your textbooks have been bought.


6. You finish your first couple weeks and you already have pulled 4 all-nighters, spent more hours in the library than in your bed and you're hungry and broke.

So buckle up and carry on you stressed out college student. This ride known as the semester has only just begun, and it is taking no prisoners.

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.
