11 YouTube Channels For When You're Procrastinating
Huffpost.com

We've all done it. We spend hours in front of our computers watching YouTube videos and telling ourselves, "Just one more video." Procrastination at its finest. Whether it's putting off that essay or ignoring the chapter you need to read, YouTube has a plethora of videos at your fingertips to distract you. It's okay. It'll get done eventually. So here's eleven of the most addicting YouTube channels to fulfill all of your procrastination needs.

1. Cat videos

Need I say more? This isn't really a channel, but YouTube is filled with an abundance of adorable and hilarious cat videos to watch at your leisure.

2. Miniature Space

This channel, a personal favorite, it dedicated to making tiny food in tiny kitchens with, you guessed it, tiny utensils. It's adorable and oddly satisfying.

3. Dr. Sandra Lee (aka Dr. Pimple Popper)

Admit it. You'd be lying if you said you haven't fallen victim to watching one of her procedures. There's just something about all of that gross stuff coming out of that disturbingly large bump. You can't look away.

4. CathyMay15

You may remember her from a video that went viral of her singing something called "Boom Boom Way". Her videos are hilarious and her message to her haters is actually pretty inspiring.

5. Makeup tutorials

Even if you only wear makeup once every three months (I mean, 8 AM's are killer. Am I right??), you're still going to watch hours upon hours of these pretending you're going to try them one day.

6. Creepypasta

There's something about watching scary videos while sitting home alone. No matter how scared you get, you just keep watching. Oh well, Slenderman still isn't as scary as that exam tomorrow.

7. Vlogbrothers

John and Hank Green post an assortment of videos about literally everything under the sun. They can be quite educational, but with a good amount of stupidity mixed in.

8. Buzzfeed

Okay, c'mon. You can go from watching videos about guys trying things girls have to endure to dogs eating brunch in just a few videos. You can get lost here.

9. DIY Videos

You can pretend like you're going to make that bird feeder all you want, but you're really just procrastinating. But, it's still fun to watch people make stuff, even if you're going to save it and never actually do it. Or try it and fail. Those are entertaining too.

10. Miranda Sings

Okay this girl is just hilarious. She tries things you'd never dream of trying and makes hilarious music videos. You could just watch her face for hours.

11. TED Talks

These are actually really motivational and you can really learn a lot. So you can procrastinate by pretending like you're doing something meaningful. And you'll probably learn something in the process!

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.
