20 Thoughts That Cross Your Mind On A Family Roadtrip

We all know a time in our lives where our parents thought it would be a grand idea to stuff us and our whole families in a cramped car, stuff all of our belongings in said, already-cramped car, and then drive. I'm talking miles upon miles. The only stops you make are designated for the creepy trucker hangouts and run-down gas stations. Now matter where you might be heading, I feel like I speak for everyone when I say these thoughts have crossed your mind at least once, or maybe like... a thousand times while enduring a fam-bam roadtrip.

1. Alright. I have a book, phone, coloring book, dvd player, ipad, homework (ha), camera, chargers, snacks...There's no way I will ever get bored.

2. Here weee goooo!

3.I wonder how long we have until we are there.

4. Well, I might as well eat all of the snacks I brought for this trip in the next five minutes.

5. I forgot shampoo.

6......and my toothbrush.

7. Why are we looking at a paper map?

8.*instantly is feeling car sick*

9. I guess I will daydream about tons of different outlandish scenarios happening in my life, which have no actual probability of happening.

10. Literally, why is dad driving like this? We are not on the Nascar track, Jesus.

11. We are at the half-way mark and I have never felt so alive yet so disappointed in my life

12. Uhh, what's that smell...?

13. How did we get lost? Seriously, we were on a straight shot highway.

14. For real, get rid of the paper map.

15. I think maybe I will just jump out the car.

16. *contemplating to be dropped off at nearest airport and fly the rest of the way*

17. I am hungry and I need to pee.

18. FML!!!

19. If I am in this car for one more minute I swear I'll jump out this time

20. sweet baby, praise, jesus, we are here *kisses the ground*

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.

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.
