It's a modern Footloose.

12 Signs You Went To A Christian School
msecnd.net

I went to a private Christian high school for all four years and while there are small differences between schools, here are twelve problems most people can relate to if you got a Christian education.

1. There was no such thing as dressing nice for school.

2. You were constantly told to have good posture.

3. Weird rules were very common.

4. It was really annoying when your public school friends complained about how strict their school was.

5. Gym class really sucked.

6. "Modesty is the best policy" has been drilled into your head from the day you entered until the day you left.

7. Whenever there was a very intense speaker at chapel that sent people into a rage.

8. No unnatural hair color was allowed and teachers asked you about it a lot.

9. This was considered evil and one must never mention it.

10. You honestly feel like "Footloose" and your school are the same school for how much they were against dancing.

11. Health classes went something like this.

My Bible teachers even told the class that it is physically impossible for an unwed woman to get pregnant.

12. Whenever you had to go out in public wearing your uniform.

So even though I wasn't crazy about my school, it has helped me to deal with strange rules I do not agree with and it makes me laugh when people complain about how strict Eastern is.

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.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

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.
