10 Bad Habits You Must Eliminate From Your Life
Irina Kostenich

The world is full of habits. Many goods and many bad habits!

Here are 10 bad habits in gifs that I find to be common in the world.

1. Picking your nose

"Dude, can you please stop. That is gross!"

2. Eating with your mouth open

"Didn't your parents ever tell you to stop talking to people while you are chewing?

Uhhh...Rude!"


3. Talking during the movie/TV show

"Have you ever thought about shutting up when the movie is playing?

That would be the coolest thought ever!

But seriously, be quiet...my favorite part is coming."

4. Staying up late

Many people struggle with this thinking it isn't a habit but it is such a bad one.

Staying up late can weaken your immune system and create bad eating habits.

5. Poor Posture

If you have a bad posture problem then you have probably felt some strain on your back or neck area after a long time in that position at some point or the other. By having proper posture, you will be able to work more efficiently... Now, stand up straight!

6. Smoking cigarettes

Everyone knows "Smoking Kills", so my question is...

Why do people still do it?

7. Spending to much time looking at a screen

You're missing out on the thousands of other things going on in life... turn your head away for just five minutes!

8. Distracted Driving

This problem isn't really going away. Is your cell phone or mascara more important than their lives?

9. Drinking soda

Drinking soda is not the worst but if you drink it every meal then yeah... it is pretty close!

Some levels of caffeine in soda can lead to dehydration and build up tooth decay.

For every soda you drink, make sure to drink a glass of water too!

10. Overreacting

Life can get difficult but that doesn't mean it can't get better.

Many of us tend to overreact at the sight of something going downhill.

Pick up your pants and search for the rainbow at the end of the storm. Don't automatically start throwing things around and freakin' out! Life goes on.

Though these are so common, I hope that when you read these, you caught the ones that you do and begin to work on them!

Bad habits are hard to break but being aware is the first step!

AI music threatens creativity

The Soul of Sound: How AI Challenges Human Expression in Music

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

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.

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.
