Those 10 Pre-Flight Thoughts

We all get a little nervous before boarding a plane.

Those 10 Pre-Flight Thoughts
theatlantic.com

Everyone gets those pre-flight gitters, but when we're traveling solo is when we really get just a little bit anxious...

1. I'm going to die on this plane.

You start thinking about every possible little thing that could go wrong.

2. I'm panicking.

3. I'm panicking, cont.

Gotta make it to security.

4. You want me... to take... my shoes off... and walk on this floor? Barefoot?

5. Why did I wear this?

Everyone around you is wearing super cute and trendy clothes and you're just there like...

6 I'm so hungry.

Yes. The absolute best part about airports. Let's be real, you truly look forward to the food you're inevitably going to buy. Even though it's ridiculously expensive, there's just something about being in an airport that makes you want everything under the sun.


7. Where am I supposed to charge my phone??

Outlets are hard to come by in airports, and when you do find some they're usually in use. But you gotta get your phone to 100 percent before you board that six hour plane ride, so you look high and low for one.

8. I could be a flight attendant.

Once you're on the plane, you think about living the life of a flight attendant. You get to travel, see different places, go on adventures, and you could channel your inner Brittany.

9. I'm going to die on this plane (part 2).

10. I wish I had a cuddle buddy.

Plane seats are beyond uncomfortable, so just to have a shoulder to rest your head on would be nice...

Once you get settled in, though, it's smooth flying!

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.
