1. Cool, Calm and Collected

Owl


At this stage in the semester, you’ve been trying to pay a little bit more attention in class After partying from January to March, it’s time to buckle down and get your life together. You’ve made the index cards, study guides, and outlines, and you’re ready to go.

2. It’s Not Really That Bad

Pooh

Okay. By this point you, realize that you’re not as prepared as you thought you were, but it’s still not that bad. After creating all of those notes you know you’ve got some major studying to do. But you’ve got a plan. Nothing is as bad as it seems.

3. It Really is That Bad

Rabbit

You’re screwed and you know it. You don’t understand your notes. You’ve lost half of your index cards, and you’ve probably been wearing the same shirt for the past three days.

4. Depressed, Hating Life

Eeyore

By this time, you have probably completely given up on life. You hate yourself, your professors, your computer, and the large amounts of granola bars and coffee that you’ve consumed in the past week. You could honestly care less if you pass your finals or not.

5. Going into the Test

Piglet

Alright, not really. You really do want to pass and as you walk into the classroom to take your test, you’re terrified. You would rather be anywhere but there, staring into the eyes of your professor who you’ve maybe seen eight times this entire semester. Hope attendance doesn't factor in to you final grade.

6. Happy and Care-free

Tigger

You know that wonderful moment right after you’ve finished your all of your finals but you haven’t gotten your grades back yet, yea, you’re there and it’s great. You can binge watch Netflix, catch your flight or car ride home, or go out with all of friends to celebrate. For the next week you’ll experience the euphoria of not having to read or write anything. But beware of those random times where you wake up at 10:00 a.m. and forget that you don’t have class.

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.
