10 Life Lessons You Learn From Watching “Orange Is The New Black”

If you are anything like me, you have been counting down the days until season 3 of “Orange Is The New Black” was finally released on Netflix. Nothing is better than sitting down and binge watching a complete season of a good series, and OITNB does it better than most. As I was indulging in the greatness of Piper, Crazy Eyes, and the rest of the prison gang, I started thinking of some valuable life lessons you can learn from watching this show. OITNB is not only a raunchy inside look of a women’s prison, but if you listen to the messages of the episodes you can learn some things too. Here they are

1) Hold on to the simple, little pleasures in life.

2) Don’t dress for the job you have, but dress for the job you want.

3) Poultry may or may not have magical powers.

4) Always be clear with your hairdresser

5) It’s important to not over react in certain situations.

6) Don't sign your daughter up for a reality TV show.

7) Proper grammar is a necessity.



8) Never forget the things a true friend will do for you.

9) Sometimes you just need a good cry.

10) Everyone makes bad choices sometimes.

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.
