10 Signs You Belong At The Beach
Danielle Pierce

1. Summer is your favorite season.

This is mainly because it’s the only season where it’s socially acceptable to spend every waking hour at the beach.

2. There is sand in almost every article of clothing you own.

It’s no longer a surprise to you that there are mini sandcastles in your shoes and sweatshirt pockets.

3. You're most comfortable in a swim suit.

Bikinis? Boardshorts? As long as you don’t have actual clothes on, you’re pretty content with life.

4. You own a beach cruiser that you ride to the beach.

What is a mountain bike, anyway? They can’t pedal through sand, which is a no-go for biking to the beach. Plus, you need the beach cruiser to give your friends rides on your handlebars.

5. You treasure your beach chair.

Your beach chair has backpack straps and a cooler pouch. There’s really nothing else you need in life.

6. Your spot is your spot.

Yes, you have a spot. If your friends and family are looking for you, they know exactly which beach block you are on and if you sit to the left or right of the lifeguard chair.

7. You can easily point out those visiting for the day.

Maybe it’s the fact they have on an elaborate “beach” outfit, or have brought a camping chair with them. Either way, you can spot them from a mile away.

8. You take naps on the beach.

You are guilty of waking up in the morning, going to the beach, and falling back asleep in the sun.

9. Salt water makes you happy.

There’s really nothing else like a dip in the ocean on a beautiful beach day.

10. You appreciate the value of a good beach day.

If you spent the day relaxing seaside, you know your day was pretty much perfect!

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.
