23 Thoughts At Airports And On Planes
wiseGeek

We don't always travel by plane, but when we do, we can't contain our thoughts and excitement. No matter what we do, we typically have the same experience at different airports. Yeah, we can't really escape these thoughts.

1. This airport is a giant work of art- the curvy roads, elevated platforms, and glass structures. Now does it have Wifi?


2. These rolling suitcases are awesome.


3. Horizontal Escalator? Yes, I really do have super speed.


4. What if the kiosk does not print out my boarding pass? I actually reserved a seat and everything, right?


5. Ok, so the TSA = security check. Security check = no water. *Gulps down bottle (jug) of water.*


6. Wow, there is so much food at the terminals! There's Indian, Chinese, Italian, American, etc... Can I just order everything?


7. *Approaches terminal. Sees sports gift shops. Buys hoddies and keychains. Realizes there is more of the same stuff at home.*


8. Wow, these planes look huge through those windows. Why is the lighting always too bad to take a great picture?


9. *Has three hours to find the gate. Finds the gate in 5 minutes. Waits impatiently for 2 hours 55 minutes until boarding time.*


10. How is this pathway securely fastened to the plane? What if I fall through that tiny crack between the plane and the walkway?


11. How are there no more overhead slots and bins to store my luggage? *Sees one more available slot and rushes to claim the spot.*


12. A flight attendant demonstates the safety procedure. There is no pamphlet in the seat pocket. Um, how am I supposed to remember all of this if the plane...?


13. Movies cost extra on some domestic flights. Oh great I can't watch any movies. Wifi costs extra on international flights. Oh great I can't surf the web.


14. Backseat entertainment? Wifi? Leg room? Window seat?


15. Why do I only see water, fields, and mountains?


16. Should I sleep? Is it safe to sleep? Ok, maybe I'll sleep for a little while. Yeah, I'll sleep. Yes, I'll do it. *Sleeps for 5 hours.*


17. No crying baby? Best flight ever.


18. The plane lands before all the snacks are served. Yeah, thanks buddy.


19. When the tray tables are a source of entertainment.


20. Are we there yet? *Stares at the world map on the plane.*


21. Having to go to the bathroom during turbulence. Yeah, that's fun.


22. Plane stops. *Rushes to grab luggage.*


23. *Recognizes suitcase at baggage claim. Rushes to grab it before anyone else does.* It is not like anyone else will grab it, right?

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.
