13 Things You Experience While Flying

The security line sucks, but the cost of your pretzels is worse

13 Things You Experience While Flying

Going on vacation seems like the best thing in the world, especially when it only takes a few hours to get where you want to go by plane. Unfortunately, the airport and your plane ride may be ruined by some of these things.

1. Long airport lines.

Seriously when the security line is longer than your flight, you're in trouble.

2.The weird person next to you who doesn't shut up.

You're lucky if you sit next to the cute man who offers you gum.

3. That person who brings their own pasta.

Is it necessary to eat your leftovers at 3:00 a.m. on a plane where everyone can smell your food?

4. The screaming child.

Sometimes you have them on all sides and it's even worse when they're kicking your seat and you're trying to fall asleep.

5. Crying over the dogs you see in the terminals.

If you're lucky you're on the flight with the pup who has to walk up the aisle for exercise.

6. The immediate standing up the second the plane taxis to the gate.


Seriously people you don't need to speed off — there are people in front of you and the door isn't open yet just sit down

7. Having to use the restroom but you're on the window and don't know your seat mates.

Guess you're gonna have to wait.

8. The safety information that no one pays attention to.

9. Sky Mall!


I can't be the only one who spent their entire flight decking out their brand new home with awesome pet and pool supplies. Why did they go out of business?!

10. That person who stands up when the seatbelt sign is still on.

Seriously?

11. The people who IMMEDIATELY make a call.

Bonus points if it is to their significant other to give them a detailed explanation of the flight loud enough for the entire cabin to hear

12. The lady that's freaked out and is terrified of flying.

13. Everything costs money on your flight.


Want the WiFi — it'll cost you. Everything you may want to make your trip enjoyable will come at a price- including the air you're breathing.

While these things seem daunting, a plane is the quickest way to get around and totally worth it.

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.
