So, you've finally made it. The wind is breezing past your face, and you managed to get yourself passes to the Bonnaroo music festival in Manchester, Tennessee. Congratulations. The next step is figuring out who you want to see. Bonnaroo features artists of several different genres, and if you prefer alternative-rock music, there is an abundance of acts that you must see.

Bonnaroo is all about freeing yourself, camping, community, and enjoying so many alluring artists. If you're lucky enough to win tickets (as I've have tried and tried to no avail), or you splurged and bought the $300 passes, here are some must see alternative acts that will not let you down:

1. U2

If you're in the mood for an "oldie but a goodie", U2 will be taking the stage as the front-runners of Bonnaroo's 4-day festival.

2. Red Hot Chili Peppers

Give it away, give it away now-- RHCP will be slaying the Bonnaroo stage and are a staple in the alt-rock community.

3. Lorde

With the concept of Lorde's new album being in the works, her comeback to the stage will be nothing short of phenomenal, and she is a have-to-see act this Bonnaroo season.

4. Cage The Elephant

Cage The Elephant is going to be at Bonnaroo, and you know you can't miss them as their new album has been topping the charts.

5. Glass Animals

If you're in the mood for something a little more groovy, Glass Animals will exude all expectations.

6. Milky Chance

These two are the definition of good vibes, and will be a underrated staple at Bonnaroo.

7. Cold War Kids

These guys have been around the block, and finally have blessed us with an amazing album, and will bless your ears at the festival.

8. Kaleo

Way down we go-- Kaleo has taken the charts by storm, and is a definite must see at Bonnaroo this year.

9. Strumbellas

The Stumbellas have a unique sound that blends rock and folk, while creating a new vibe altogether, which is why you have to stop by and see them play.

10. The Front Bottoms

The Front Bottoms has a sound that's all their own, and are a must see!

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.

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.
