4 Social Media Trends I'm Tired Of Seeing

For someone like me who has Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and Snapchat accounts, it seems like people have gotten more annoying as the day goes by. Social media has made it nearly impossible to ignore how incredibly annoying certain trends are. I'm all for people doing what they want, but these 10 things need to be put to an end.

1. Getting annoyed about girls using Snapchat filters.

There's a trend by useless and ignorant men that shame woman for their use of Snapchat filters. Like it really really bothers them to the point that they have given it a new name. The dog filter on Snapchat has now been labeled the "H*e filter" by them. And according to them 'ugly girls' can't use Snapchat filters because its "false advertising". Yes, this is really their thought process.

2. Telling your followers everything that goes on in your life.

We all follow that one person that narrates their entire life on Snapchat, or that one high school friend who writes long detailed rants about what went wrong in their relationship on Facebook. These people take the 'I'm an open book' thing extremely far and wont let one dramatic moment in their life pass without announcing it to their followers.

3. Instagram, Vine and Youtube Challenges.

Every month there is a new challenge that is incredibly stupid and useless. The first one I can recall is the "Don't Judge Me Challenge" where pretty people use makeup to draw on unibrow, pimples and everything else that is deemed unattractive to society and then transforming into their regular flawless makeup self. The purpose? It really had none, it was a shallow gimmick and used as an opportunity to show people how pretty they are when they wipe away their fake flaws. Of course following that was the running man challenge and now the musically app challenge were people just lip sync in front of a camera and make cringey dance moves.

I shouldn't even need to explain this, please make it stop.



Yes, that is a knife.


Just please make it all stop.

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.
