One thing. There has got to be one thing that makes you want to scream. Sometimes it depends on where you're from. Because I work in a location en route to New York City, many customers hate when people move too slowly. In contrast, southern living moves a lot slower. Nonetheless, how we perceive others 100 percent depends on the mood we are in.

1. Leg shaking.

This is usually people who have a hard time sitting still. Either way, I do not appreciate my chair bouncing.

2. Loud Chewing.

I think this would bother everyone. Or maybe i'm just crazy. Am I the only one who noticed that some men make moaning noises when they eat?

3. Nail tapping.

Guilty. After getting our nails done, every girl likes to find a nice countertop — Taptaptaptaptaptaptaptaptaptaptaptap.

4. When people use your belongings without asking.

I'm super laid back. I don't care if you use my mug or use my pens. But food? Never touch my food.

5. When people eat your leftovers.

This is probably one of the worst things that happen. I spent my whole day looking forward to eating that. That was my leftover lo mein, you jerk.

6. When people push you in a crowd.

Never touch me again.

7. Putting the toilet paper the wrong way.

This one really gets to me. Toilet paper should always have the little flap on the top. I do not wish to tickle the toilet paper roll.

8. When people say "ew" to what you eat.

This happens mostly when I try to eat healthy. Trust me, saying "ew" to my raw vegetables doesn't make it any easier for me either.

9. Slow cashiers at Walmart.

I really don't want to be here. I really should have gone to self checkout.

10. When people listen to their music out loud in public instead of using headphones.

Trust me, nobody wants to hear that awful taste in music.

11.The word "moist"

Nobody likes this word. It has no importance in the english language.

12. Expensive coffee.

I have an assignment due tomorrow, I don't need to spend $4 for a small espresso.

13. People who stop in the middle of a sidewalk.

I do find an excuse for this if you find a Pokemon. Catch em all kid.

14. Stupid hashtags.

#LikeforLike #Followforfollow #selfie #pretty #girl #human

15. YouTube ads.

Get out of here, no one invited you.

16. People who don't use blinkers.

It is not that hard.

17. People who mix up "you're" and "your."

I think we learned this in third grade.

18. People who intentionally dirty a public restroom.

This isn't your personal pig pen. Go piss on your floor at home.

19. When people make plans and then cancel at the last minute.

I got out of bed for this...How dare you...

20. That noise when a steak knife screeches across your plate.

That noise is physically painful. It hurts my soul.

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.
