Well, ladies and gentlemen, it's that time of the year again.

It's the time where we start sharing, retweeting and favoriting all those tweets and articles that relate the most to us struggling "end of the semester" college students. Weirdly, this time of the year seems to come earlier every year. It seems like you have no time in the day to do anything but school work, and when you do have time for a breather it's spent worrying about upcoming assignments or the fact that you have to be missing an assignment because there is no way you actually have this so called, "free time."

The one thing we are all sure of is that we don't have time to fully respond to the people who are asking how we are doing. Don't get me wrong, we appreciate and love everyone who checks up on us, we really do, because statistically college students are as stressed out and have the same levels of anxiety as a psychiatric patient did in the 1950s... but we can't write everything that we are feeling and not have a mental breakdown.

So, when you are feeling the end of the semester pressure, and find yourself unable to fully respond to those who worry about you, here's an article that you can send them.

Pick your favorite and send it, or send the whole thing. Depending on your major... you may be feeling every one of these.

Stay strong my fellow peers, the end is near.




Dear parents,

If you are sitting at the dinner table and it's the first meal with your child who just returned home from a rigorous semester and you look up to see that they look like this... just know that they gave everything they had.


... Be easy on us.

Sincerely,

A second-semester junior whose "finals week" came about a month too early.

We Heart It

Over the past decade, television has undergone a very crucial transition: the incorporation of female lead characters. Since it's a known fact that girls actually do run the world (Beyonce said so herself), it's time for the leading ladies of the small screen to get some credit. Without these characters, women would still be sitting in the background of our favorite shows. These women are not only trailblazers for female empowerment, but role models for women worldwide. With that, here are 15 of the smartest, sassiest ladies gracing our screens that remind us that women do, indeed, rule:

If you are like me, you have an interesting personality. Basically, you love to be sassy and snarky, gossip, and act like a total bitch (not really), but deep down, you are actually a very genuinely nice person. The idea of actually hurting someone truly makes you feel bad, and you probably have never actually hurt someone’s feelings because your kindness always shines through, even if you do not want it to. Not sure exactly what I would call this type of personality, but if you identify with it, here are some feelings you can undoubtedly relate to.
