10 Reasons Why I Wish I Was A Dog
Zoe Stavrou

As you go through your daily life struggles of being a human, you may often look over at your dog and think, man you have the life. I have always said that if I could be one animal it would be a dog. Out of all the animals in the world, I choose a dog because of these 10 reasons:

1. Everyone loves you

Ever worry if someone likes you? If you're a dog, that's the least of your worries. Everyone who sees you walking down the street adores you and wants to give you love.

2. You don't have to work

Is work stressing you out? If you were a dog, the only work you do is chasing a ball and, let's be honest, that is more of a good time then a job.

3. You can sleep whenever you want

Tired? If you're a dog the only thing you need to plan your nap around is your walk, meals and the daily bark at the mailman.

4. You always get treats

Sweet tooth? No problem, in a dog's life all you have to do is a simple trick, such as sitting, to get your favorite snack.

5. The world is your toilet

Can't find the nearest bathroom? Luckily you can pop a squat wherever you like, as long as its outdoors.

6. You don't have to worry about financial issues

Having trouble paying bills? Of course not, you are a dog and the world is priceless.

7. You can comfort people even on their worst days

Ever see someone down in the dumps and you just can't seem to find a way to pick them up? Well, by just being a dog, you have a magical power to make people happy and comfortable.

8. You can be weird and it's cute

Being weird as a human isn't always a good thing. As a dog though, you can roll in the grass, stick your tongue out and make whichever noises you want and still seem cute.

9. Making friends is easy

Want to make new friends but sometimes you have trouble making them? As a dog, making friends is a breeze. All you have to do is walk up and do a nice little butt sniff.

10. You don't have to worry about your appearance

What should I wear? How should I do my hair and makeup? These questions never come to the mind of a dog.

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.
