11 Signs You're Addicted To The Internet
Interventions Support

Internet addiction is a real and serious disorder. Symptoms include nausea, (when you realize that that one girl fromhigh school is still trying to be an Instagram model) redness, (of the eyes, from staring at a screen so much) vomiting, (when you see your ex's pictures) and death. Please, if you show any of the twelve following signs, contact your doctor immediately. Together, we can all beat internet addiction.

1. The first thing you do when you wake up in the morning is check your social media accounts.

2. And it's also the last thing you do before you go to sleep.

3. You find yourself on Facebook minutes after you last checked it.

4. You can't imagine going a day without the Internet.

5. When the WiFi stops working, you go into a total panic mode.

6. You regularly catch yourself laughing at some stupid joke online, sometimes at the most inopportune times.

7. When the WiFi goes out, you force yourself to venture into the weird game called "outside."

8. And you hate every second of it.

9. You've learned more from Google than you have in actual school.

10. You no longer remember how you used to live before the Internet.

11. And even worse, you don't even want to.

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.
