Well it is that time of the year when all it seems to be doing is raining. We are out for the summer but stuck inside because the rain just will not stop. There are many thoughts that goes through everyone’s head when we get cooped up inside. Thoughts that start from dang when can I get out to maybe I will just go play in the rain.

1. Finally. It has not rained in a while, it is about time it rains. These burn bans are not fun in the summer when we want to shot fireworks off, especially on the 4th of July. Plus it is hot so a nice cool down will be nice. I mean just cool down to about 80 and we will be good. 100 in Texas is not fun.

2. So I spoke too soon. When is it going to stop? I do not think it will ever end. It has been raining for days I feel like. A few days is long enough.

3. Why is this happening?! Seriously, why? It has been raining for several days. I think the plants are more than fine now. I may like falling asleep to the sound of rain but I am just annoyed now.

4. Everything is wet. I am too short and all the puddles are drenching my pants. My shoes are soaked along with my socks. I cannot even do anything with my hair. I just want it to stop.

5. It is summer! I just want to be out on the lake or at the pool having fun. Catching all the sun rays. Enjoying my summer but instead I have to sit and stare outside.

6. Should I just sell my car and buy a boat at this point? When I do get out I have to avoid all the roads. They are all flooded and I have a feeling I will be soon calling for help. Plus I did want to go to the lake and be on a boat anyways.

7. Is this the end of the world? Did someone build an ark and not tell us? If so, where was our warning? God, I do not know what you are doing but please do not wash out humanity again.

8. My hair is not okay. My hair becomes wet, with no blow-dryer to contain it. It is in directions I did not think my hair could actually settle. This rain really needs to stop.

9. Maybe I can just go float the river at the park. Just go buy me a tube and i will float away since I cannot go enjoy floating the river that was on my summer bucket list.

10. Will I get drenched sprinting out to my car? Yes, probably. But I just want to eat so is it really worth it? An umbrella just does not work at this point. Maybe a huge towel.

11. Why did I park next to a puddle? I hope that somewhere in me I can jump 5 feet and not land in it. Nope, there go my shoes and socks. Yay.

12. But really. When is this going to end?! I just want the sun back!

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.
