The End of the Semester as Told by Lieutenant Commander Steve McGarrett and Detective Danny Williams

The spring semester has come to a close, as has season six of Hawaii Five-0. While the prospect of school being out is certainly something to be excited about during this time of the year, it also means that we have to wait until September to see more irresistible action-packed, crime-solving drama from the nation's Aloha state. To commemorate another great season of the show and express my elation with having finished another semester of my undergrad career, I've decided to retell the stages of feelings the end of the college semester through the eyes of Steve McGarrett and Danny Williams.

1. In the middle of your last class, you suddenly realize that you don't have to do this anymore.


2. When all of your classes have ended for the semester and you think you're free of all your responsibilities.


3. You finally have a few days to enjoy sleeping in.


4. Then somebody kills your mood by asking if you've started studying for your finals yet.


5. You eventually start studying, and you're looking through everything you need to know for the exam like...


6. When you need help, you ask the smartest kid in class and are blown away that he/she somehow understands every single thing.


7. You know you should spend the night studying, but your friends keep trying to convince you to go out with them instead.


8. Walking into the final thinking you're prepared like...


9. Getting stuck on a question during the final.


10. The feeling you get the very second you turn in your final exam.


11. When you just took the exam and somebody immediately asks you how it was.


12. Being pleasantly surprised when you go to check your final grades.


13.When your professor is unexpectedly generous with the curve on your grade

14. But your parents think you still could've done better


15. You start to question every life decision you've ever made and start to panic (falsely) that you'll never amount to anything


16. But the feeling finally wears off and you remember you can enjoy summer without having to worry about school for a few months.


Okay, so the school year was long and tough, but it's the best season of the year now, so live it up while it lasts!

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.
