14 Benefits Of Having A Baby-Face
cbssports.com

If you've ever been mistaken for a pre-teen or had to explain to someone you are in fact an adult, you might have a baby-face. You often focus on the downsides of looking young, but here are some awesome benefits:

1. It’s a good conversation starter.

“Wait, you’re telling me you’re a junior in college not high school?”

2. You could order off the under-12 kids menu until you were 16.

Half-priced grilled cheese all day long.

3. You can get free drinks at parties by declaring yourself a prospective student.

It’s not hard for you to pass as a senior in high school and you plan to take advantage of it.

4. You get ID'd at R-rated movies.

Not sure if this is a benefit, but you get to whip out your ID and embarrass the teenage ticket-taker.

5. People underestimate you.

You always exceed expectations because people think you're less experienced.

6. People frequently refer to you as “adorable”.

You know you secretly love it.

7. Bouncers are shocked when you hand them a real ID.

*Flips hair* “That's right, sir, now let me in.”

8. You’re in good company with tons of baby-faced celebrities.

Work that baby-face just like Joseph Gordon-Levitt.

9. You always surprise people.

Something about looking younger throws people off, but they're pleasantly surprised when they see what you're capable of.

10. You get seated at the kids’ table at family events even though you’re technically an adult.

This means no answering questions about your future or your relationship status over dinner. Score.

11. People aren’t intimidated by you.

Your baby-face makes you easily approachable in any setting.

12. For boys, growing a beard instantly ages you 10 years.

Who doesn't love some good facial hair?

13. For girls, you've become pros at doing make-up from trying to look older.

That winged eye-liner is on point.

14. When you're 40 you'll look 25.

Sweet revenge to everyone who ever messed with you for looking young.

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.
