2016 Was Just Not Our Year

While 2016 had a few good moments, looking back; 2016 wasn't as good to us as years past.

2016 Was Just Not Our Year

2016 has not been a good year. Through celebrity deaths, President Obama leaving the white house to more Kardashian drama, we can't help but to look back and think that this wasn't our year.

1. Chyna left Rob and took the baby. Tyga is the uncle of his own child, The Kardashians have us all mixed up.

From the Rob and Chyna drama, to Tyga being his own sons uncle. From the Kanye tour incident to Scott and Kourtney getting back together, we just can't keep our heads on straight anymore.

2. Too many celebrity deaths to count.

2016 has taken many famous faces from us. From Alan Rickman, David Bowie and Prince. To Carrie Fisher, George Michael and Florence Henderson, someone please make it stop.

3. President Obama, don't leave us please.

This years election was an "experience." From Trump's bashing to Hillary's emails, we had quite the election. But we ask you one thing Obama, please don't go.

4. Brangelina Broke up.

We've seen many celebrity break-ups throughout the years. But not only did this one take us by surprise, but we also lost part of our hope for true love. What happened!?

5. Why can't we just live in peace?

From shootings to protests, we just don't understand. Why can't we all just live in peace.


But some good things did happen...

1. The Cubs won the world series.

FLY THE W!!!!!! What else do we need to say?

2. Beyonce went on tour.

It's always a good year when Beyonce goes on tour, who doesn't want to see Queen B?

3. We have "Carpool Karaoke."

Sometimes we all need a pick-me up. If it wasn't for James Corden, who knows what we would do to cure our sad times.

4. We had the 2016 Summer Olympics in Rio.

But the real question is, How does Michael Phelps do it? Is Simone Biles the next Phelps? Can we be in the Olympics for napping?

5. Leonardo DiCaprio won an Oscar.

Our boy finally won an Oscar, we couldn't be more proud.

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.
