10 Times to Use the Word "Sexy"

Sexy is a wonderful word. It holds so much emotion and expression within its four letters. It makes people feel confident and a little uncomfortable. Recently, I have found myself using the word sexy to describe more than just people but objects, actions and ideas as well.

According to the dictionary, sexy means sexually attractive, sexually aroused OR informally exciting or appealing. Sexy in an informal setting can be used to describe something you find interesting, appealing or intriguing.

Drinking water

Everyone needs water to survive, right? So obviously watching someone guzzle down some luscious H20 and keeping themselves alive is a pretty sexy thing.

Sarcastic remarks

When trying to indicate that an action should be ceased at the earliest convenience, using the word sexy can send the hint without using foul language. Saying “the way you let food hang out of your mouth is sexy” really causes an individual to reflect.

2am Subway

The sexiest people you’ll find on campus are the party fiends who roll into subway after a late night of raging. Make up smeared, hair a little frizzy and dirt half way up their legs you just know they had a night for the books. Their sexiness comes from the sparkle in their eyes when they get that sandwich.

When your underwear matches your bra

This is how you know today is going to be a good day. Even if you are the only one who sees the miracle that happened when you got dressed this morning, you know your whole day will be better because of it.

Friday

As countless singers have raved in their songs, Friday is the end of the week and the start of the weekend. What’s better than knowing you can blow off responsibilities till Sunday? Nothing.

A face that brings the boys to the yard

If someone asked me to be sexy, I would flash them one of these bad boys. It works every time.

Sweatshirts & Sweatpants

Forget feeling the pressure to get dressed up- sweat suits show a confidence and a mature disregard of others judgment that emanates sexy from head to toe. Don’t ever let anyone fool you, being comfy and confident is the best of both worlds.

Ratchet Pitt

Remember those sexy beasts at Subway? Have no fear, if you missed them last night I can guarantee you’ll see them at breakfast at the Pitt. In their leggings and a sweatshirt, the amount of buns you’ll see cannot be counted on two hands. It’s another moment when people realize they don’t care enough and emerge in their true colors. It’s really beautiful.

Birkenstocks

Wow, don’t get me started on these sexy staples. I wore these all of freshman year (even on pref night…) and they’ve never let me down. With a slight similarity to your distant uncle’s shoe choice, the leather straps and perfect arch support form to be the ultimate choice.

Smiling

In all seriousness, no matter who you are, where you come from, what you wear, how you think or what you believe- a smile is sexier than anything else you can do. Smiling allows sexiness to be shared between everyone and well, it really just makes the world a sexier place to live in. If you take nothing away from this article but this, I hope you smile a little more. The world appreciates it.

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.
