Here's Exactly What To Do Your Last Semester Of College
Odyssey

So, it's your last semester of school. The future looks bright and you're going to be stepping out into the real world. What are you going to do during your last semester of school before you graduate?

Panic

Just scream into a pillow and hope that good fortune will fall in your lap. You're terrified, alone, and broke. What a life you lead. This is everyone's go-to reaction because the world isn't safe. You won't have a clear path from here on out and you're not sure you'll ever have fun ever again. However, I give better advice than I can take so here are a few things to look forward to.

Have fun

This is it. This is your last 16 weeks of college. You gotta do something with your time. Don't sweat all the final exams and internships. They're important and all but you have to remember that school is supposed to be fun. Live it up. If you think that it's all downhill from here, that sounds like a pretty good reason to have the time of your life. Grab all your friends and have a ball. Make sure to end on a high note.

Work for the future

When it's your last semester, you have to face the music. It is finally time to work on your career and have a game plan for employment. I'll be throwing stuff at the wall and see if anything sticks. If worse comes to worse, just have a back-up plan. Don't give up, it wastes too much time. You don't have much of it left. There is still hope and you've worked hard for it. Make it count.

Nostalgia

Once classes start again, I'm gonna be taking every step with a breath of fresh air. You gotta take it all in. This is your college experience. It wasn't all that it was cracked up to be but it certainly surprised you all the same. Like a cancer patient, I'll be thankful for everything before I go. It really is beautiful when you run out of time, isn't it?

Old dogs, new tricks

You still have a semester to learn. It seems like you haven't learned anything at all but you have and you still can. I'll be learning and trying some new things too. There is time to experiment and try it out before you graduate.

Farewell

I'm going to say goodbye to friends, hopefully see them again, and shed one manly tear for the good, old times. I love to say goodbye but hate to see you go. It's nice to have closure and make sure people know how much they mean to you. You gotta have that one last goodbye before you part your separate ways. Because without your friends, life at college really blows. When you're just hitting the books and moving from dorm to classroom and back, that's a pretty sad life. So I'll be saying farewell and so long because my friends deserve to remembered for all the good times.

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.
