The unique ways we fall asleep.

Do you ever just look at people when you are on a long bus or car ride and wonder how they are sleeping like that? Well I don’t have the answers, but it is rather entertaining to see. It amazes me how people fall asleep in some positions, but hey, if you can sleep right now, go for it.

1. Sitting straight up

When you decide to rest your eyes for just a minute and end up falling asleep in that exact position.

2. Knees smashed to the seat in front

When there is not enough space for you to stretch out but you have reached the point where sitting straight up is no longer an option.

3. Feet on the seat

The next step in stretching out, but you had better hope the person in front of you doesn’t mind some feet.

4. Laying across laps

If the person next to you isn’t your friend, they are now.

5. The sprawl

When you occupy as much space as possible, sprawling all limbs in different directions with no hesitations.

6. Upside down


Because sitting normally just isn’t any fun.

7. The window lean

Head rattling against the window so you squish a jacket in between.

8. Stealing all of the seats

Whether someone was going to sit next to you or not, they missed their chance (and the next seat over from that one too).

9. The not-so-reclined recliner

When you attempt to use the “recliner” feature of the seat that only moves two inches.

10. Head leaning into the seat in front of you


When you just can’t hold your own head up anymore.

11. Curled into a ball

Do you ever really grow out of the fetal position?

However you like sleeping on a long trip, just know that someone will see you, and probably laugh.

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.
