1.Looking for a summer job

They don’t want summer help, they don’t want college kids, they want experience, they don’t want you.

2.Actually having a summer job

It’s summer break yet you’re slaving away.

3.Summer classes

Shouldn’t you be done with this b.s.???

4.Doing chores for your mother

When you’re in your dorm no one bothers you to wash the dishes

5.Improper AC

The temperatures never right. It’s too cold, too hot, but don’t you dare open a window unless you want to melt.

6.Butt sweat

And nervously looking back at your seat to check if there’s a mark.

7.Getting sunburn

Bring in the dancing lobsters.

8.Peeling skin

I didn’t know I was part lizard until now.

9.Weird tan lines

Especially for those doing summer sports, shin guard tan lines are a no.

10.Barbecues

Don’t like hotdogs? Or hamburgers? Too bad.

11.Community lakes

How many people peed in there?

12.Swimsuit shopping

It will never fit how you want it to.

13.Losing and breaking sunglasses to inevitably buy and lose/break your sunglasses

Just buy the crappy ones so you don’t feel as bad about it.

14.Gardening

Dirt, worms, sweat, and regret. Mom can I go inside?

15.Crazy humidity

No matter what you try your hair will suffer

16.Tiny bugs everywhere

IT FLEW INTO MY EYE

17.Terrifying bees

Save the bees! But keep the bees away from me!

18.Pressure to go outside

But Netflix! But Riverdale! But my couch is so cozy!

19.Instagram Envy

No exotic vacation pics from me

20.Diet Trends

You want me to exclusively drink juice and cut carbs? No thanks

21.Increased media coverage of the “summer bod”

You have a body, it is summer, everyone chill.

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.
