15 Things Only Fangirls Get

According to the Urban Dictionary, fangirl is "a rabid breed of human female who is obsessed with either a fictional character or an actor. Similar to the breed of fanboy." A less frightening definition is "a female who has overstepped the line between healthy fandom and indecent obsession." As a proud fangirl, I know the struggle. Here's a list of things myself and other fangirls just get.

1. Being extremely emotionally involved in your favorite TV shows.

2. Sleep? What is a sleep schedule?

3. Making sounds that are not human.

4. Having little to no social life.

5. Getting weird looks when using the fangirl language in real life.

6. It seems like all the good men are fictional.

7. It's likely you have more than one OTP (one true pairing).

8. In fact, you have many in the same fandom.

9. Feeling extremely protective over your fav characters, fandom, and ships.


10. When the writers mess with your ships.


11. Since the writers didn't expand enough, there's always fan fiction.


12. The excruciating waiting period before your ship becomes canon.

13. Sexual tension between your ship is too much, and you're like:


14. When your favorite character gets killed.


15. You have friends on Tumblr who you can fangirl with.

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.
