Every person that wears glasses for the better part of the day remembers the moment when they found the one pair that changed them into a glasses-wearer forever. You finally felt like you got your life together and that you were ready to conquer the world. Although you love your glasses, it definitely comes with a few struggles.

You know you wear glasses when:

1. You can’t lie comfortably on your side.

I just want to lie down. Is that too much to ask?


2. You start getting little pimples on the side of your nose.

Where did these zits come from? How did you get here?

3. When you lose your glasses and you feel like you have lost your whole identity.

Will people even recognize me without them?

4. You watch people read without glasses and feel physical pain for them.

How do they do it? What magical powers of sorcery do they possess?

5. You spend half of your life letting people try them on.

Oooo can I try? Omg everything looks so different! Maybe I should get glasses, they look good on me!

6. And you spend the other half looking for where you put them.

I swear I put them in the bathroom last night, ugh!

7. You pretend to put them on your pets and laugh at them for looking silly.


You don't need glasses silly kitty!

8. You feel naked without them.

My eyes are naked, please don't look at them.

9. You look back at old photos and cringe at your old glasses your mom picked out for you.

Parents: why???

10. You feel like you can conquer anything when you finally clean the lenses.

11. You notice other people’s glasses and wonder where they got them.

Wow, why didn't I do this sooner?

12. You get excited when your friend has to get glasses.

Ah! Glasses buddies! We can pick out glasses together!

13. Kissing with them on means that they just start poking the other person's face.

Oops, sorry. Sorry. Okay, I'll just take them off.

14. When you forget them at school or work, you mentally check out for the day.

Well, I can't do anything productive now, so bye.

15. You don’t want contacts because your glasses are a part of you.

What do you mean "why don't you wear contacts?" I can see perfectly fine with my glasses.

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.
