The Last Month Of Your Second Semester In College, As Told by Jim Halpert
NBC

We all know college is rough but nothing is rougher than the last month before you finally get released to have some fun in the sun. When I need to relieve stress, I always turn to The Office for a well-needed laugh and no one relates it better than Jim Halpert himself. Here are some relatable Jim moments from The Office that help me feel like I'm not alone in my struggle.

Being so done weeks before you are actually done with classes

It's fine. I'm fine. I'm over it.

Staying up all night trying to finish that project, then trying to stay awake in class the next day

You haven't put in effort all semester, so now you pay the price.

Trying to participate in group assignments but being completely uninterested

You need to get a good peer review though!

Suddenly you have 5 papers, 3 projects, and 4 tests all in the same week that you definitely didn't see coming

The teacher brings out the final exam review guides and games and you don't recognize anything

When was this covered? Where are my notes? What is my life?

Eventually walking into the final and simply hoping for the best

Could you have studied more? Yes, but sometimes Taco Bell and Netflix are more important.

Then walking out, realizing you nailed it and are ready to take on summer break!

All the stress is over, and it is time to relax and enjoy some endless free time.

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.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

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.

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

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.
