"Course request opens tonight." says my roommate walking out the door.

My head whips around in that terror that strikes through your body. AGAINNNNNNNNN????

Course request is more stressful then midterms.

Your classes for next semester affect everything: your professors, your possible grades, your time schedule, how much fun you can have on Thursday night, basically everything important.

Here are 10 thoughts that will go through your head during course request.

1. Why are Friday classes a thing?

Really... why can't we all have a three day weekend? It's only 4 years...

2. OK, but what did Koofers say?

Don't lie, we all do it. We look up which class were more likely to get an A in, or what professor doesn't require attendance. Sometimes, I look up which professors require books. #broke

3. Can I avoid 8 a.m.s... or maybe even 10 a.m.s?

No one wants to get up early, and if you do, teach me your ways. Coffee just isn't helping me.

4. Which classroom is closer to ABP?

Food. It always helps. Plus ABP can be healthy... right?

5. So... how can I get Friday classes?

Really, no Friday classes are the best thing in the whole entire world. However, we can't get this lucky every semester. There is a reason attendance goes down on Fridays.

6. Should my classes be back to back or spread out?

Serious question. It's hard to decide which is better. The spaces allow for work to get done.

7. Can I walk across campus in 15 minutes?

The answer is yes... IF you wear the eight shoes and really keep up the pace. Just don't expect a great seat.

8. *texts friend* Is this class easy?

This is really how it's done. Person to person communication is the most important aspect of course request. Why take a class you will bust your butt to get a C in when you can breeze easy, learn a lot, and get an A.

9. Why am I required to take this class?

Sometimes things just don't make sense.

10. WAITTTT?!?!?!?! I have to graduate early/late?

I can't decide which is worse.

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.
