What College Seniors Begin To Feel Less Than 100 Days Until Graduation

But by your graduation day, I am sure you will think it was all worth it.

If you are a second-semester college senior, you probably just realized you are less than 100 days away from completing your undergraduate career. In less than 100 days you will be crossing that stage, receiving one of the most expensive pieces of paper of your life. That piece of paper may have cost at least $200,000 in tuition, $500+ for nights out, $1,000 in textbooks, many sleepless nights, and a whole lot of stress. But by your graduation day, I am sure you will think it was all worth it. However until graduation, here are some of the feelings we will be feeling until we are officially the Class of 2017!

1. Excitement

You begin to feel excitement knowing that in a few short months you will be a college graduate. You begin to feel excitement knowing that you are going to have a great last few months with your best friends and be able to live it up all day, every day.

2. Stress

Now you begin to feel the stress and pressure of finding a job with less than 100 days until graduation. You begin to feel the stress of your senior thesis, all the classes you need to graduate, and everything else you need to get done in the next few weeks.

3. Heartbroken

Now everything you do on and off campus starts to become a series of lasts. The last time you take the Valiant into White Plains to go to Brother Jimmy's. The last time you take the 3 AM Valiant back to campus. The last time you get to have a gross pub wrap - I mean who would actually miss that? The last time you get to go lay out on the Quad. And your last Nights Parties and Quad Jam.

4. Fear

You begin to start feeling "fear of the unknown." What will happen once you graduate and what will happen to the friendships you have built through your time at college. You also begin to feel fearful about passing all your classes and graduating "on time."

Good luck seniors! We are officially in double digits!

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.
