The End Of The Semester Struggle As Told By 'American Horror Story'

Because it is just as terrifying.

The weeks leading up to Thanksgiving & Christmas breaks are long and busy, filled with finals, projects, papers.

The work-load always takes you by surprise & you swear half of it wasn't even on the syllabus.

It's like all of our professors suddenly remember they have a job to do and lay it all on us at once.

Everything is due the same week and you prepare yourself to pull several all-nighters

But you must fight on.

After your first 24 hour streak of no sleep, you have to pep-talk yourself a little bit.

You're an adult, right? You can do this. It's only x amount of weeks, x amount of days, x amount of sleepless hours. This is what adulting is.

Eventually, you just can't take it anymore and if you see one more textbook, note card, or highlighter, you might just lose it.

Emotional outbursts are expected.

So, you do the responsible thing: take a Netflix break and binge eat some taco bell.

"Study?" You mean "tacos?"

Procrastination tacos are the best kind.

If you haven't been in love before, you are now.

After even an hour of procrastination, your grades are practically screwed.

You just have to accept it.

You finish your last final and the excitement is real.

You're just so proud of yourself for making it to the end.

When you find out you didn't actually fail everything, you're even prouder.

You know you shouldn't procrastinate next semester, but you also know you will probably do it all over again.

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.
