21 Family Members That Show Up To Every Reunion
Ansley Jenkins

Like Miranda Lambert said "It takes all kinds of kinds."

1. The Worrier - This is the family member who worries about who is cooking, who is coming, the exact time everyone should be there, what time everyone is eating and any other minor detail that goes along with planning.

2. The Cook - This is usually grandma. This family member makes all major dishes and is the person everyone calls when a meal is needed.

3. The Complainer - This family member is the one who always finds something wrong. The food is cold, aunt Betty got there 30 minutes late. It does not matter if everyone is having a blast, this person has something negative to say.

4. The Planner - This is the family member who makes it all happen. Calls everyone, gets the location ... all the good stuff. They usually never get any credit either.

5. The Liar - This is the family member who tells everyone about what they did since they seen them last and everyone rolls their eyes because they know it isn't true.

6. The Permanent Kid - This is the family member who gets stuck at the kids table and stuck keeping the kids entertained no matter how old they get.

7. The Competition - This family member always brings out the board games and will not stop playing until they win or get In a fist fight.

8. The Grump - This family member is always ready to leave early and you can tell by the look on their face that they probably didn't want to come in the first place.

9. The Fake One - This family member is nice to everyone's face but talks so much crap behind their back.

10. The "not so" family, family Member - This is that twice removed half cousin that everyone liked, so they still allow them to come to every event.

11. The Sarcastic One - This family member is always everyone's favorite/worst enemy. They are the favorite because they always have the best jokes and they keep everything interesting, but they are also the enemy if you become a punch line in one of their jokes.

12. The Know it All - Nobody likes this family member. I'm pretty sure they only come to events to tell everyone what they are doing wrong in life.

13. The Troublemaker - This is the family member everyone worries about, for many reasons. They worry about them setting the house on fire or finally telling everyone they just got out of jail last week. You never know.

14. The Gossiper - This family member is always starting drama. They will call everybody in the family just to talk crap about them all. They really like to get everyone fired up, especially right before a gathering.

15. The Judger - This family member is usually someone who is married into the family. They tend to think they are better than everyone else when really their immediate family is just as bad.

16. The Rich one - This family member always brings the best gifts and is usually loved by all the kids.

17. The Drunk - This family member is also one that can be your best friend or your worst enemy. You never know what they are going to bring to the table.

18. The Black Sheep - This is the family member who everyone thinks is adopted. We try to love them but they are just "different."

19. The Photographer - Everyone tries to dodge this family member but it never works. Three weeks after the gathering you will see a picture of yourself stuffing your face on Instagram for all your friends to see.

20. The Hog - This is the family member that you do not want to get behind when it is time to eat. There may not be any left.

21. The Peacemaker - This family member is the one that deserves a medal. They are always breaking up family arguments and making sure everyone gets along. Without them who knows if anyone would make it out alive.

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.
