24 Thoughts You Have While Packing

Summer is a time for vacationing with family, or going to see friends back in their college towns. It’s all good fun, but there’s one thing standing in your way: what to wear?


  1. I’m only going to be there for a few days, I don’t need to pack that much.
  2. What are we doing? Are we shopping all day? Hiking?
  3. I can’t do this in silence. Taylor Swift Pandora? Yes.
  4. Maybe we’ll go swimming, I should pack a swimsuit…. Maybe two?
  5. Okay these new dresses are cute, I should pack all of them, who knows what we’ll be doing.
  6. I’ve already posted a picture on Instagram with this outfit on……… I’ll pack it anyway.
  7. Shoes.
  8. Should I pack my own shampoo and conditioner, I wonder if they’ll have the same body soap as I do.
  9. Do I bring my straightener and my curling iron?
  10. Is it acceptable to pack an entire bag solely for shoes?
  11. How many t-shirts am I realistically going to wear?
  12. If we’re hiking I need tennis shoes, they’ll have a gym in town too, I could go workout…
  13. I can only wear these shorts with like one shirt I have, but they’re so cute… I’ll pack both.
  14. Realistically, I’m not going to work out, but I should bring the tennis shoes just in case.
  15. I haven’t even thought if I’m going to be sharing clothes when I get there.
  16. At this point, I have enough clothes packed to wear 3 different outfits a day. That’s possible.
  17. These wedges are impossible to walk in, but they make my legs look really good, yeah they’re coming.
  18. Should I bring just basic jewelry? Or something different for every outfit?
  19. I wonder if we’ll be going out every night.
  20. I’m not sure if these pants fit anymore, but they’re super cute so I’ll pack them just in case.
  21. My two brown wedges are different shades… I’ll need them both, definitely.
  22. Maybe I should just wear t-shirts every day.
  23. Wow, I’ve gotten up to 3 different bags already… I have room in the car so that’s okay. Better too much than too little right?
  24. I’m rethinking everything in these piles. I’ll look at it all again when I wake up in the morning.

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.
