5 People You See in the Library

During finals week, the local library tends to fill up far past capacity, with people who you swear have never set foot in it before. People come early to claim their spots, especially the cubicles that have a built in outlets. Yet with the long hours needed to study, and exams around the corner- the library fills with a very unique group of students.


1. The Gossips

There's always that group of people who collect themselves around a table, and talk as if they're simply out to brunch. But no people, you are at the library, actually you are on the quiet floor of the library. So please stop talking.


2. The Hoarder

After completing step one of successfully saving their spot at the library, there's always those people who hoard everything around them. It seems that every leftover meal they've had for the past few days encircles them and if they're writing a paper they collect every book on that topic, barricading themselves in. Do they ever leave?


3. The Sleepers

Yep, they're the ones that simply didn't get enough sleep last night or don't understand that they have a dorm room with a bed for a reason.


4. The Netflix-er

As you look up from your textbook, and admire that student across the way from you for how hard they've been working for what seems like hours- you get up and go to the bathroom. As you walk back, you can't help but notice that that dedicated student is actually watching netflix. Only boosting your self-confident- yeah you got this final.


5. The Caffeine Addict

Those who simply never seem to leave the library, and neither do their four empty coffee cups. Every other yawn, deserves another cup.

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.
