This week I will be returning to Villanova for my sophomore year of college and having already gone through a year, I know what to expect going back. Moving in will feel exciting, embarrassing at times (thanks parents!), and sad all at the same time. Thankfully Michael Scott and the rest of Dunder Mifflin can help me show any incoming freshman what to expect when leaving for school.

1. Leaving your hometown best friend will always be hard

It will always be hard to leave your hometown best friend, no matter how far into college you are. After spending an entire summer together, goodbyes will be emotional but Thanksgiving will come sooner than you think.

2. Leaving is all kinds of exciting

The car is packed to the brim, your dad is stressing about traffic, and it's finally time to go back to school! If you're a freshman you are probably excited to see what college is like, and for the upperclassmen that means seeing your friends again.

3. Your parents might be embarrassing at move in

Whether it is talking to the cute guy on the stairs, making dad jokes to your roommate, or them just being SUPER excited to move you in, your parents are bound to do something that makes you squirm. As embarrassing as they can be don't get mad at them, they're just excited for you!

4. Reuniting with your college friends is the BEST feeling

FINALLY it's the moment you've been waiting for all summer. Reunions will be full of a ton of hugs and you're just ready to party it up with your friends again.

5. Remembering that you DO have to go to class is rough

College is one of best parts of your life: you find your people, join fun clubs, and get to experience another part of the country. But college is about school and remembering that you will soon have lectures, tests, and homework is not a fun feeling.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

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.
