1. Music is almost always too loud.

If someone’s music is playing at a volume higher than some easy background noise, then it’s too loud.

2. Technology is impossible to work.

From connecting to Wi-Fi to figuring out how to save a document as a PDF, it’s usually easier to just let one of your more tech-savvy friends figure it out.

3. You have a proficiency for saving money.

When was the last time you paid full price for anything? If you can’t find a good coupon or sale for it, then you’re not buying it.

4. It stresses you out when people don’t eat enough…

How can you go through your day without sitting down and eating one single meal?!

5. And when people don’t dress properly for the weather.

Whenever you see someone wearing jeans in 100-degree weather or shorts and sandals when it’s raining outside, you start to wonder about the sanity of some people.

6. Naps are the highlight of your day.

Let’s face it, it’s practically impossible to make it through the day without at least one hour of daytime rest.

7. You can never hear anything.

You tend to ask your friends to repeat themselves at least four or five times before giving up, laughing and hoping that it’s the appropriate response to whatever they were saying.

8. Anybody who hits you up for plans that start past 9 p.m. is ignored.

Listen—if you’re texting me to make plans this late, chances are I’m already prepped and ready for bed. Don’t bother.

9. You love to wear sensible shoes.

Nothing beats a good pair of comfortable sandals or tennis shoes. High heels who?

10. Nothing makes you happier than staying at home.

The ultimate sign that you’re an elderly person in a young body—nothing truly brings you more joy than curling up on your couch to watch TV, read a book, or just go to bed early.

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.
