The Stages Of Going Back To High School After Graduating

Whether you have younger siblings or friends still in high school, or you're just supporting a high school activity, you've probably ended up at your old high school at least once since graduating. Here's what probably goes through your head as you walk through your old school.

1. Nostalgia hits you and you really miss the simpler times.

2. But then you remember that you actually had a bad time.

3. And you went through that awkward phase in high school.

4. You remember that boy you used to date.

5. Then you start thinking about all of your old friends. Where are they now?

6. You thank God you no longer have to eat the school lunches.

7. At least you no longer have to deal with group projects where you do all of the work.


8. And you don't have to ask to go to the bathroom anymore.

9. You didn't really learn any important life lessons.

10. However, at least the teachers tried the best they could to teach you something.

11. You wonder how you managed to get to school at 8 a.m. everyday when you can't even make it to a 12 p.m. class now.

12. Despite all of it, you're still happy to have graduated from high school, and you're now a proud alumni.

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.
