Hey, gang! Halloween has sadly ended. November has begun and brought autumn along with it, finally. Thanksgiving is on the way! This doesn't sound too bad, so far. Then, we realize... The semester is almost OVER! Finals are shortly after Thanksgiving break.

While this is supposed to be a relaxing and fun time of the year, students are in crunch time and forgetting about what sleep is. That is why this is the perfect time of year for one of our childhood friends to give us a little laughter in our time of need. I would like to introduce everyone to SpongeBob Squarepants, as he explains college in the best way he can think of.

1. There are four primary years of college.

Each year has a different phase. Some people stay in only one of these phases. As a freshman, I understand that I go through this EVERY day! SpongeBob went through this!

2. Move In Day!

Everyone loves move in day. This is where you will live for a semester or a year. These are the people who will experience the adventure with you. Your roommate could become your best friend.

3. Laundry day.

Some people love doing laundry at the dorms, while others hate it for different reasons. Some have never their own laundry. The washer is never open. The dryer is never open. Some people even continue to take their stuff out of the washer or the dryer.

4. College students, who need sleep, have trouble going to sleep.

The other people in the dorm are up and noisy all hours throughout the night. Good luck getting sleep, everyone!

5. When your roommate/ best friend has class, and you don't.

My friend, Kiera, and I are close. We spend our weekends together. Sometimes, she is busy. Sometimes, I have work. This is what happens to us!

6. You pay for this. You pay for that.

Only t-shirts are free here! Tuition is so high these days that it is outrageous to pay for it. This doesn't even cover the other fees that people have.

7. When students try to pay for college and only have a few dollars.

Paying for college is the most difficult thing to do as a young adult.

8. People waiting for scholarships and grants.

The best option that people can do is apply for every possible scholarship or grant out there. Apply! Apply! Apply! It does not stop once you get into school!

9. Everyone is always broke!

Most of the money that students have ends up going towards college and food, whether necessary or not. When you have to get someone a gift, the best option is the free option.

10. When syllabus day doubles as lesson one day, and you end up taking a bunch of notes.

What could be so important that it couldn't wait one day, right? Some teachers want to fly through a lesson on the first day of class. This is a difficult thing to get through as students transition into the school year from summer break.

11. First day of lab. Who knows what we are supposed to do?

Many science classes have labs. Students are confused about what to do in these labs that last two to three hours.

12. 8 AM classes and the teacher trying to make you laugh.

This is too early to focus. This is too early to catch a joke.

13. The NEVER ending To-Do List for College Students.

You will always have something that you have to do. Once you finish something, another thing will come up. If you think you are finished, you are not. It is most likely something important that you forgot.

14. Cannot get rid of a headache?

Too much homework. Not enough money. Not enough sleep. Not enough healthy food. Not enough GPA.

15. When you are in class, and the teacher is going over a new lesson.

You just figured out the last lesson. Another lesson comes up , and you are lost again!

16. I must start and finish this paper!

Procrastination at it's greatest! Many students do not start a paper until the night before it is due.

17. When studying gets too boring and it is hard to focus.

You just started studying, and you need a break from all that hard work.

18. When the professor says that you will actually need to read Chapters 1-9 to pass a test.

270 pages two days before the test. Good luck!

19." This is not a multiple choice test."

When there are too many short answer questions, and there are no multiple choice questions on an exam.

20. Leaving class first after finishing and failing the exam.

The test was too hard, and you did not study. You must leave the room confident.

21. When the professor hands back a test.

You remember how poorly you think you did on the exam. This is the time to shed some tears.

22. You think you failed your test.

The teacher hands it back. Your grade is passing! How did this happen? This was luck.

23. Studying for Finals be like...

24. The beginning of finals is the beginning of tears.

This is the hardest part of the semester.

25. The end of finals is finally here.

Time to throw the brain away!

26. You all made it through the semester!

Time to party and relax before you start it all over again the next semester.

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.

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

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.
