This has been a pretty crazy election cycle, and if you are invested in politics, you may have had some pretty intense emotions through this year. But now that we are at the Republican National Convention, we can see that a lot of emotions can go by pretty fast. Here are 10 moments from the RNC that may remind you of moments you yourself have had this election year.

10. When you found out your parties nominee

Now that we know it's Clinton vs. Trump, a lot of people aren't very excited to vote for their parties candidate, but seeing the other one in charge might just scare you into voting for them anyway.

9. When you hear people arguing about the election

When you hear a group of people debating the election and its candidates, it may be best to avoid being suck in.

8. Meeting people who have your candidate's merch

For whatever reason, when you see someone in a shirt, with a bumper sticker or anything else from your candidate, you just feel like you have instantly created a new friend.

7. When Bernie supported Hillary

So, a lot of people weren't ecstatic when Bernie supported Hillary, but for them, the alternative may just be bad enough to justify the means.

6. The Republican Debates

The democrats had some fiery debates, but watching 10 people rip each other apart based on everything from senate participation to the size of someones hands, made these debates seem more like the hunger games then an election season.

5. Sarah Palin making a return

Lets face it, Sarah may not be the brightest crayon in the pack, but she does put on a pretty great show whenever she makes a debut.

4. People who don't care

3. Finding out your friends' political stances

It's not everyday that groups of friends just sit down and talk about how they believe the country should handle immigration or gun control. But when it's election time, you may just be surprised who supports whom.

2. People trash talking your candidate

When people trash talk your candidate, its always go time, and you are ready to brawl it out.

1. Voting

I'm sure what this lady was referring to was Voting, because nothing is more American then casting your vote.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

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.
