10 Struggles All Pale Girls Have

Being considered pale is typically seen as a flaw, especially in the summer. However, there is absolutely nothing wrong with have a creamy completion. Its the popular norm right now to be ultimately tan, but for a lot of people this just isn't possible. Here are some common struggles that all pale people can relate to:

1. Taking a selfie and not even being able to see your whole face due to the brightness

2. During the summer, having multiple people ask you why you aren't tan, don't get spray tans, or if you hate the sun

3. Going to the beach and feeling really insecure next to all the tan people.

It's not your fault you burn easily!

4. Finding a shade of makeup foundation that actually matches your skin and doesn't give you a demarcation line

5. When you wear all black around Halloween and people ask if you're dressed as Morticia/Wednesday Addams.

(Worse if you also have black hair like me, but hey, an easy Halloween costume!)

6. Having very dark hair which makes you look even more ghostly

7. Every single blemish and skin flaw can be seen

8. The constant struggle of removing body hair.

It's so darn visible on your pale skin

9. Flash photography.

Enough said.

10. Having such beautiful unique skin that makes many others jealous

Though it may seem like everybody on the planet wants to be tanned, pale skin is gorgeous and never something to feel bad about. Rather, it is something to admire and be proud of.

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.
