10 Questions College Students Are Sick of Hearing Over Break

Thanksgiving break just ended and students are returning to school filled with turkey, love, and more than enough awkward family encounters to last the year. As you sat down at the dinner table, I'm sure you prepared yourself to answer a series of questions that you'd already heard from every relative and their dog.

Here are the 10 questions college students are sick of hearing:


1. What are you thinking of majoring in?

I don't know, jeez, but thanks for reminding me that I have no idea what I'm doing with my life!


2. So.... do you have someone special in you life?

No, jeez, but thanks for reminding me that I'm forever alone!


3. What do you mean you hit someone with your car this morning??

I mean I didn't see a stop sign and I hit a pedestrian, duh!


4. How are your classes?

They're interesting, jeez, but thanks for reminding me that I'm drowning in work!


5. Are they ok??

I'm sure they'e fine, just a few scrapes and bruises! A broken leg at the worst!


6. Do you like your professors?

Yeah, they're great, jeez, but thanks for reminding me that I'll never be that smart!


7. You didn't just drive away did you?? You did???

Of course, I did! I'm not trying to pay someone else's medical bills!


8. Were you prepared for the adjustment?

No, jeez, thanks for reminding me that I cried everyday for the first two weeks!


9. Can't you go to jail for that??

Yeah, I'm pretty sure you can, so none of you better snitch on me!


10. How are we even related???

Well, my mom is your sister and she slept with my dad and I was born! You're 54, do you really not know how sex works??


I bet all you college students know that these questions are the worst!! If only people wouldn't be so nosy!! But seriously, snitches get stitches, just remember that....

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.
