Reasons Why I Am Excited To Return To College

Is it over yet? Yes, I am talking about summer break. I never thought I'd hear myself asking this question. I remember dreading the approach of august but now I am welcoming it with open arms. I cannot wait to be back at school. I have missed it more than I thought, and I am more than ready to return and get back into the swing of things. Some may find it a little insane at the idea of being excited to go back to school. I remember up until college wishing that summer break would never end so I would not have to return to the classroom. If you find me crazy for wanting summer to end and for school to start here are a list of reasons why I am beyond ready to be back at college.

1. No more reasons to not work out

Too busy working, sleeping, the gym isn't free....the list can go on and on for reasons to not work out back at home. But guess what? The gym is free at school so looks like it's time to hit the weight room.

2. Naps Naps and more Naps

Whether it is 9am or 9pm random naps are acceptable again, so embrace it.

3. School days are shorter, unlike high school

\

Some days you have four classes, and other days you may have none. This gives you some more free time than you had in high school.

4. You can go out at any hour, no questions asked.

At first it feels strange and you may feel like you need to ask for someone's permission, but you are responsible for yourself and can go out whenever you please.

5. Taking classes you enjoy because of your major

Classes become a little more enjoyable when it is something you are interested in

6. You live with your friends

Your friends live within walking distance, you get to eat breakfast lunch and dinner with them, and go out with them whenever you want.

7. A new year means you can make new life long friends

Each year comes new students and great people to be a part of your life

8. School shopping

There's something about buying a mini fridge that makes you feel like you're sort of an adult

9. Late night study pizza (or just ordering a pizza at 2am just because you can)

When you're up late cramming for an exam, it's back to ordering a 2A.M. pizza and hoping for the best

10. Parties

Summer is fun, but college parties with your best friends is always a good time.

11. New opportunities

New school year has so much to look forward to, just be ready to embrace the changes as they come

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.
