10 Gifs That Describe All The Awkward Things We're All Guilty Of Doing

Everybody knows that comforting feeling that comes with telling your friends about something really awkward and embarrassing that you did and having someone else say that they've been there. The fact of the matter is that the lower half of the Millennial generation still hasn't quite learned how to become fully-functioning adults-- how are we expected to get a good job and pay taxes when most of our time is literally spent learning how to interact with people in basic social situations? Here's a list of some of the embarrassing things you do that you think nobody else does:

1. Saying "You too" when the waiter tells you to enjoy your food.


2. Picking your nose.

3. Accidentally first bumping someone when they go in for a handshake (or vice-versa)

4. When someone holds the door for you, but you're far away.

5. "Hey how are you?" "nothing much".

6. When you think you see your friend in public and do something weird and then realize that it's not actually your friend.

7. Accidentally liking a really old picture posted by an acquaintance.

8. Pretending to be into various books/bands that are brought up in conversation.

9. Licking yourself clean when there are no napkins around.

10. Peeing in the shower.


It's easy to think that you're weird or socially awkward because of embarrassing things like these. Remember that nobody's perfect-- the rest of the world is right there with you. We're all still kind of learning how to not make complete fools of ourselves.

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.
