17 People You Find on Airplanes

1. The perky flight attendant who greets you as you enter what will soon be hours of claustrophobia.

2. The man who falls asleep as the plane takes off, and promptly wakes up as it lands…lucky b*stard.

3. The person with their nose in a book trying to ignore the rest of the world.

4. The loudmouth who inadvertently tells you their whole life story …from three rows away.

5. The adorable kid behind you who becomes less adorable as they kick your chair incessantly.

6. The person who stares out the window the whole time (do they expect to see a colonial woman on the wing?).

7. The hotshot that carries enough designer luggage to be a Kardashian.

8. The panicked one rambling on about “the flying box of death" and how they “need their Xanax ASAP."

9. The diva who struts up the aisle like a runway.

10. The person who goes to the bathroom 500 times.

11. The one silently cussing because the drink cart hit their elbow.

12. The lady with an excessive amount of snacks that crinkles wrappers the whole time.

13. The moody teen with their 'beats' on, trying to pretend they're not on a family vacation.

14. The person trying to get an upgrade on their seat.

15. The businessman simultaneously using his iPad, laptop, iPhone and any other device they will allow at that time.

16. The occasional person with an interesting story to tell.

17. You, trying to get through the flight, meanwhile observing all of your temporary “companions."

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.

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.
