As an introvert myself, I know some indicators that may help clue you in on your personality!

These signs may not apply to everyone, but they may serve as a basis to build on if you’re on the fence about which way you tend to lean in regards to extroversion vs. introversion.

1. You appreciate your "Me Time"

Relaxing by yourself is a must. You need some time to de-stress and recharge without having to deal with other people.

2. You're a home-stayer at heart

Parties sound fun, but a lazy day inside sounds even better!

3. You like to Netflix and chill — literally

Every once in a while, sitting on the sofa and clicking your way through a season’s worth of episodes sounds like the best way to spend an evening.

4. You have mixed feelings about extroverts

Being friends with an extrovert can be great because they’ll take most of the social interaction responsibilities off your shoulders, but sometimes they can be a bit too much and leave you feeling exhausted.

5. You aren't a big fan of crowds


Spending too long in a crowded area can be overstimulating and draining! Sometimes you need to get yourself to a quiet space and rest up for a bit before going back in.

6. You enjoy doing things alone

You find yourself content when doing solitary activities such as reading or writing.

7. You're creative

Because you don’t mind spending time alone, you’re more inclined towards creative outlets such as drawing or making music.

8. You get quiet or tired after too much activity

This is perfectly fine! As an introvert, you’re just trying to conserve energy after being overloaded with sensory info.

9. You're introspective and self-aware

You like taking the time to think things through and may be prone to running an inner monologue inside your head. Internal thoughts, feelings and moods are carefully accounted for and you are great at deciphering your current emotional state.

10. You have a small but tight-knit group of friends

You'd much rather have a small, close group of friends near and dear to your heart than be friendly with a huge group of people without truly knowing them beyond superficial conversations. Long-lasting relationships are much preferred and they tend to be significant.

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.
