We all get in the car with people (or even just with yourself) and wonder "How the hell did this person (or myself) manage to pass their driver's test?!" Here are ten signs that maybe it is time to go back to driving school and retake that test.

1. It takes you over 10 seconds to switch lanes. Just go. Seriously. Blinker, cautious look, slight diagonal merge. 7 seconds, tops.

2. You say “oops!” more than 3 times per trip.

3. You hear more horns honking at you than your own karaoke show you put on in the car.

4. If you don’t turn on red when there’s a blatant lack of “No turn on red signs”

5. “Oops I forgot my glasses!” maybe you don’t need your license revoked, but please think!

6. You go 10 mph below the speed limit. (speed limit is often speed MINIMUM, but that’s just me)

7. You find that the ideal time to turn on your blinker is 10 feet before you make an abrupt turn down your neighborhood street

8. You’re one of those people who thinks it’s perfectly acceptable to park a tinyyyy bit over the line of the next parking spot. No. You, sir, are a jerk.

9. You utilize your time behind the wheel to become the world’s greatest multitasker. This includes, but is not limited to, doing your makeup, texting, reading the paper (update: Trump is still rude!), and checking Instragram.

10. More than 2 of your friends fear for their lives when you offer to be the driver this time around

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.
