2. You tell yourself you are only going to go out the first week and from then on you can only go on the weekends because school is super important.
4. You sign up for everything because you think you’re going to have time to do it all.
5. Suddenly you miss one day of homework and are drowning in work trying to catch up.
6. You stop showing up to almost all of the clubs you originally signed up for.
7. Sleep becomes more important than going to lecture, or you decide that you’d rather do all of your catch up work because it’s more “effective” that way.
8. You realize you’ve been to the gym once since getting to school.
9. And you also get FOMO (fear of missing out) so you think going out more, including on a bunch of weekdays after power week is over, is a great idea.
11. Homesickness starts to creep up on you, and then you realize you can’t go home because you have midterms next week.
14. You doubt your previous decisions about going out instead of doing the essay that is worth 50% of your grade and is due tomorrow.
16. You make it through midterms only to realize that you have another round of them coming in a week.
17. You eagerly count down the days until break when you are free of school.

Taylor Swift's Eras Tour is What I Hope Heaven Feels Like
By: James McDonald

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.

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.

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.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person
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.
