College is crazy busy, and most of the time I'm either sleeping, eating, doing homework, in class, or working.

For this reason, writing my article for the week comes down to the last second, and sometimes you just have to do something crazy in order to get your article done, so here are...

RANDOM ARTICLE IDEAS FROM MY ROOMMATES

1. Bubble Gum - Makanna

"Really Makanna, that's it?"

"Yep."

2. Why Boys Ain't Sh*t - Lexie

"Is that how you feel, Lex?"

"Yes, yes it is."

3. How to Deal With Lexie Cicalo - Jordyn

"That's so funny. I'm gonna show this to my mom when it's done." - Lexie

4. Why Crocs are the Greatest Shoes in the World - Lexie and Jordyn

Lexie and Jordyn are both Croc fanatics, and decided that this would most definitely be the article idea for the win. They both just bought Lemon Yellow crocs, also.

5. HOW I HATE WHEN PEOPLE SIT IN MY SEAT EVEN THOUGH IT ISN'T ASSIGNED - Lexie

It's a funny thing how in high school you think that assigned seats are so stupid, then you get to college, sit in the same exact seat everyday, and then get mad when someone sits in your seat, because it's YOUR SEAT.

6. Procrastination is Key in College - Makanna

I think most college kids would say that they don't TRY to procrastinate, it just kind of happens. One day you have two weeks to turn in an assignment and then it gets to be the day before it's due and you realize you've done nothing the whole time and then you have to rush like crazy to get it done.

(Kind of like me with this article at the moment :))

7. How College Brings You Close with People You Never Thought You Would Be - Me

Since moving to college, I've met more people than I ever met in high school and it's crazy how you want to be friends with every single one, just because of how amazing they are. You meet different types of people from many different places everyday and without trying, you just kind of make friends.

8. Why Crying is An Everyday Occurrence in College - Lexie

"I am a very emotional person. I have a sensitive little heart, man. I just cry everyday."

9. How Many Cookies Can We Eat Without Gaining Weight? - Lexie

We've made the cute little fall sugar cookies twice since being here, and both times we've eaten almost 90% of them. Every time, we've asked ourselves, "Is this really that bad for us?" The answer, I'm sure, is yes. But, college. *insert the oh well person emoji.*

10. How Late Can We Stay Up Before We Realize We Should Give Up for The Night - Me

It happens on occasion that you get so much homework, you feel like you're up to your eyeballs in it. You can't help but stay up until you're so tired that you feel like if you go to sleep, you won't wake up for three years.

Desperate times call for desperate measures. When you're at a deadline, you do whatever you can to create something worth reading, so I hope you've enjoyed the words of my crazy roommates. :)

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.
