Everyone, at least once will take a eight a.m. class in college.

For some reason, the thought of getting your classes done early in the day sounds so refreshing and you seem like an adult. We all secretly wish we were better morning people, no matter how heavy the bags are under our eyes.

Taking eight a.m's might be hard, but we all have to do them at one point or another. Here is the stages of taking an eight a.m., as told by a female who is currently sitting in one, watching her professor drill a group for a media law case brief.

1. It's six a.m., why is my alarm going off?

What day is it? What have I done? Why did I do this to myself?

2. Brushing your teeth, wondering why you do this

Why didn't anybody told me this is a bad idea? Why didn't anyone stop me?

3. Forgetting your breakfast, drinking OJ after toothpaste

I just swigged down a ton of OJ immediately after brushing my teeth.

So, this is how this day is going to go.

4. Dealing with early morning traffic

How many people DRIVE THIS EARLY??? Why are they driving to his early? WHY ARE WE STOPPING ON THE INTERSTATE? IT'S SIX THIRTY!!!

5. Getting a decent parking spot

Maybe this isn't so bad, I actually get decent parking in the commuter lot! So, this is why people take early-morning classes.

6. Getting the seat you sit in everyday

So, I get here a little early, AND I get the unassigned assigned seat that's mine! This maybe isn't so bad.

7. When they assign group discussions

Does this professor know that it's REALLY early in the morning? No one wants to do group work, we all want to be left alone to sip our coffee and actually wake up. We might be here physically, but mentally we aren't.

8. It's finally over

Finally, the hellish end of taking an early morning class is over. You survived, which means you deserve that Starbucks latte.

BLESS UP

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.
