Sleep. Oh sweet, wonderful sleep. It is so lovely to meet you again after a long semester of sleepless nights, sleepless days, sleepless weekends and sleeplessness. I don’t believe I’ve seen you since way before dead week and finals. I forgot about your wondrous perfection. I forgot about these 17 reasons why you are so amazing:

1. Being able to have it

I don’t remember the last time this happened.

2. Your bed

I’ve missed you equally as much.

3. Blankets

Soft and sweet.

4. Pillows

Softer and sweeter.

5. Dreams

The good, the bad, the ugly. But not reality, so I’ll take it.

6. Forgetting about responsibility/stress/anxiety/people/everything

I’m sleeping to forget my worries. They say it works.

7. You don’t have to do things you need to do

Sleeping is on my to-do list soooo...

8. There is no dress code

Pants? It’s up to me? Wow.

9. You can’t ever be bored

I can dream of all the fun things I wish I could do. It’s fun, I promise.

10. Snuggling

The best way to interact with another human being/dog.

11. Time flies

You close your eyes and wake up and it’s four hours past your alarm going off...hm.

12. You immediately feel better

It’s refreshing, it helps you lose weight, it helps reduce stress, it changes lives for the better...

13. No one can judge you

I’m not awake to see you make fun of me sleeping with my mouth open and drooling.

14. You are being completely productive without doing a single thing

This is my dream (see what I did there?)

15. You can pass out whenever you want throughout the day as long as you call it a “nap”

It’s 3 p.m.? Nap. It’s noon? Nap. It’s an hour after your alarm went off and you’re still sleeping? Nap.

16. You can always look forward to it

Any day is a good day because sleep is bound to happen.

17. It is the most majestic, wonderful thing God has ever created

So #blessed.

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.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

WP content

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.
