If this isn't you, you are lying.

10 Thoughts I Have At The Airport
Wikipedia, Mumbai Airport

I love traveling. I love going out of the country, I love traveling domestically, I love road trips and everything in between. I basically grew up on a plane, either going to see family or skipping school for a week to travel with my mom on her adventurous work trips. You could say I lived very daringly and adventurously for a small child, but I liked it. I liked that I didn't know what I was going to do or where I was going to go. And even though airports are exciting, there are just so many thoughts going through my head. Not sure why, but it could be because of lack of sleep or too much coffee. Never anything in between (not surprised at myself, though). So in the spirit of Spring Break travels and being stuck in Newark Airport for several hours, let me take you through a journey inside my head. Shall we?

1. "It is too early."

This is the exact reason why I do not take 8 a.m. classes, but for some reason I do the same thing over and over again. Why?

2. "Who knew so many people loved being up this early."

I see so many people at the airport all happy and chipper except that it's 4 a.m. How? No amount of sleep can prepare me for this day. Never ever.

3. "Where is the Dunkin?"

Dunkin is always a must. Their coffee over everything. You know you need Dunkin really bad if you have a mental break down at the gate. The struggle? Yeah, it's kind of real.

4. "If I get to the gate before everyone else does I can have an unhealthy amount of coffee and not be judged. Awesome!"

It's not an option. It's a necessity. Understand that. #CoffeeGangForLife.

5. "Someone took my unassigned assigned seat. Get with the program guys!"

Oh and the awkward part? Going to find your seat, seeing its taken and then standing there like a weirdo looking for a seat. Come on mad, #HowRude.

6. "Where is my boarding pass?"

This happens at least 10 times a trip. I've never actually lost my boarding pass but I've been really close to it. Typical me though, not surprised.

7. "If I hear one more crying baby ..."

Ah, the perfect staple to a flight. The symphony of baby whaling. What a sweet sound. Not.

8. "Why is the flight crew always late and holding my flight up yet they get to skip security?"

I always see flight crew skipping the lines that I have no choice but to wait in, but these people get all the privileges, but they still make me late? Grandma is waiting for me!

9. "I forgot so many things as home. I know it."So. Many. Things. Every single time.

And its funny because I keep checking myself to double check and after I do I still forget things. I have too many things. *sigh*

10. "WHERE IS MY BOAR- okay its in my hand we're good to go. *whew*"


Okay, I'm good. But now I really need to get my life together. This happens way too often.

So in a nutshell, going to the airport is a disaster.

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.
