Girls are amazing creatures. Somehow they're able to get up every morning, put on a full face of makeup, do their hair, throw on a perfectly constructed outfit and go about their day without so much as their mascara running. Unfortunately, not all of us females are on the same wavelength when it comes to be flawless. For my perfectly imperfect ladies, here are 10 things you'll understand if you're bad at being a girl:

*Disclaimer: this article is supposed to resonate with girls who don't feel as put together as their female counterparts. It is in no way meant to insinuate that girls are shallow or that the only thing a girl has to offer society is her looks.*

1. Your hair and makeup is never done.

Whether it's because you woke up 10 minutes before class or because you simply lacked the will to try, you somehow always end up fresh faced and in a ponytail.

2. You don't really understand how to do makeup for that matter.

You see perfectly contoured faces and flawless winged eyeliner everywhere you go, but no matter how many YouTube tutorials you watch you just can't get the hang of it. Also, you don't want to drop the hundreds of dollars on every type of makeup needed to create the perfect look. (I mean why do I need foundation AND concealer? Honestly.)

3. You never have your outfits picked out.

Leggings and a sweatshirt are your best friends.

4. When you do decide to dress up and spend time on your hair and makeup, you blow everyone's minds.

On the rare occasions that you decide to go from a potato to a low key hottie, you get enough attention and compliments to get you through the year. At least you know you can be hot if you want to.

5. You barely own any shoes.

All your girlfriends are trying to decide which pair of heels best matches their outfit for the party you're headed out to, but you're already ready to go because you only have one pair.

6. Your friends are always begging you to let them do your hair and makeup.

Because you could be so pretty if you just let them contour your face and wrestle your hair into some sort of updo.

7. You hate trying on clothes.

Seriously, you'd rather buy something, bring it home and try it on, and then return it than take the time to try it on in the store.

8. Your nails are never done.

Your fingernail and toenail polish always goes by the wayside.

9. You buy your underwear from Target instead of Victoria's Secret.

Because it's cheaper and let's face it, guys aren't going to know the difference anyway.

10. Your bra and underwear never matches ... like ever.

No excuse for this, just bad planning.

Maybe one day we'll get ourselves together but for now let's just enjoy our sweatpants.

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.
