Quotes Gram

In about a week, I will be starting my last first day of school ever. In about 270 days, I will be graduated from college...but who's counting? Me! I'm counting. I'm ready and I don't care what anyone says. I don't like to tell people that I'm about to graduate from college because they aren't that supportive. The majority of people like to bring me down and I am over it.

Here is what I really want to say to you, but can't because my mama raised me to be kind or something:

1. You're not going to grad school? I think you should re-think that decision.


Is this your way of offering to pay for my graduate schooling?

2. Life after college is so much responsibility. Enjoy this time.

Oh, good to know, because I don't have any responsibilities now. I'm not paying bills on my own or working and going to school.

3. You don't start out working your dream job.

I know you're right, but don't remind me.

4. So, what are your plans for after graduation?

*eye roll*

5. Well, what do you want to do?

I don't know, okay?

6. Let's figure out your future.

Stop. Please.

7. Good luck finding a job.

Let's not do this.

8. You should really save that money & put it toward paying off your loans.

I only wanted a taco. Let me live.

9. I bet you're so excited.

You could say that.

10. You should really think more about your post-grad life.

I appreciate all of your concern and advice, but I'm just trying to make it through these next two semesters without any meltdowns. I'm freaking out already because it's a big deal, so send words of encouragement and let all of your bosses know I'm hard working!

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.
