15 Signs You Are The Shade Queen of Your Friend Group

We can all be a little shady sometimes. Who doesn't love to spill some tea? But if you have found yourself doing at least seven of these things, you are a true shade queen. Don't even try to deny it!

1. You lurk on people's profiles like it's nobody's business

It's basically a second job by now. Everyone knows who to go to for all their stalking needs.

2. You and your friends have a group chat to spill the new tea

As soon as you get it, you share it. There's a good chance thought that half the squad already knows it but that's okay. Share just in case!

3. Stirring the pot? That's your full-time job

You are the queen of stirring the pot. When people try to start a fight with you, you know what to tell them to divert them onto someone else.

4. You are the subtweet queen on Twitter

You know that you should just “@” them, but where's the fun in that? They always say “if the shoe fits, lace it up and wear it”.

5. You buy mirrored sunglasses so people can't see you rolling your eyes at them

They keep on talking about all this useless stuff. You're annoyed. But you're also too nice to tell them to shut up. So just roll your eyes behind the shades, my dear. Also, if you don't have a pair of mirrored sunglasses, be sure to invest in some.

6. Your camera roll is full of screenshots

If you don't have the pics, then it didn't happen. All shade queens know that screenshots are an essential in your line of business.

7. You have an album titled "Receipts☕️", for all those screenshots

Maybe not “receipts” or “screenshots”, but you have an album for them. You must stay organized!

8. Spotted that girl in your English class, that you didn't really like but tolerated? You walk--run-- in the other direction

Probably your best choice. You really don't want to get caught up in a talk about how life is going at the moment.

9. You know which sites are best to stalk people on

You have your go-to’s. They're practically your most visited pages!

10. You can go 83 weeks back on Instagram post without double tapping on a single picture

Are you really a “shade queen” or “stalking master” if you can't achieve this? It's an essential skill!

11. If you can't find their Facebook, you can most definitely find their parents

This one is borderline creepy, but sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do. If there is a will, there is a way!

12. You used your friends profile to stalk or the people

You don't want your crush knowing, so you better borrow that besties phone.

13. You wear headphones without any music playing, so you can hear the tea

This is how you find out most of your tea. It's always when people think that you're not listening, that you find out the most!

14. Your whole squad is a little shady

Can't even deny this one! If you're shady, the people you hang out with are bound to be a little shady themselves.

15. While you might be the shadiest in your friend group, your mom has you beat

You wouldn't even dare to cross your mom. She has all the tea and is not afraid of spilling it!

Maybe it's just my friends and I who are this shady, but I hardly doubt that. You know that you've done some of these things and are perfectly okay with that. No ones hating here! Be sure to share and tag some of your favorite shade queens!

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.
