Isn't kale the name of an ivy league school?

We've all been there, looking in the mirror thinking "I should go on a diet". The idea of a diet is pretty simple, just eat less, and healthier. (So that means no hot Cheetos). The actual act of going on a diet is a much different experience. Kale, protein shakes, working out? What did I get myself into?

1. Deciding to go on a diet

When you have a big event coming up and the dress you're planning to wear seem

2. Letting everyone know you're on a diet

Letting everyone know you're on a diet so they don't try to mess you up by asking if you want Mcdonalds at midnight.

3. Cutting certain foods out

Goodbye, dear friends.

4. Regretting cutting out certain foods

Are you sure that girl scout cookies aren't diet-friendly? Thin mints literally have "thin" in the name.

5. Realizing you don't eat healthy... at all

The last green thing I ingested was a mixed drink.

6. Deciding to start eating healthy

Trader Joes, here we come.

7. Remembering why you don't eat "healthy food"

Kale? no. Just no.

8.Seeing Progress

That might be water weight but I'm still counting it.

9. Hating it more than anything

Screw this, I'll just buy bigger clothes.

10. Is it worth it?


The carbs are calling, and you want to pick up.

11. Realizing it is indeed not worth it

Curves are hot anyway.

12. FOOD

Yes, I got Taco Bell to eat on my way to Mcdonalds while I was waiting for my Dominoes pizza, do you have a problem?

13. Eating junk food

If pizza wasn't a breakfast food they wouldn't have made it so good cold.

14. Embracing the curves

My weight doesn't define me anyway.

15. Going back to your normal habits

Am I really living my best life if I'm missing out on beer and tacos?

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.
