40 Thoughts We Have While Getting Ready For A Big Day

It's a big day, for whatever reason, and it's time to get up and get ready. Sometimes we wake up ready to take on the world, but most of the time, our motivation is lacking. Either way, we've all been through the harrowing stages of waking up and getting ready in the morning, especially when we have a big day ahead of us!

Here are the 40 thoughts we have while getting ready for a big day.

1. I know the alarm is coming, but I refuse to open my eyes until it does.

2. Seriously, why am I even thinking about the alarm going off right now? I should still be sleeping.

3. I know it's coming. I can't do this.

4. THERE IT IS.

5. Why did I think I needed two hours to get ready? It's only a wedding.

6. I need to avoid all mirrors before I get into the shower. Not trying to see the damage of a poor night's sleep right now.

7. Of course I'm just now realizing that I left my razor at my parents' house this weekend.

8. I cannot wear that dress with hairy legs!

9. Is pantyhose still a thing?

10. Oh god, my armpits too...

11. Pantsuits are cool now, right?

12. Nah, there's no way I can pull that off.

13. I'm just never going to get out of the shower and say that I'm deathly ill.

14. Actually, that's not an option. The groom's brother is single and I've been waiting for this day my whole life.

15. Alright, that's slightly dramatic, but he's perfect and I need to be there.

16. Also for my friend getting married, I guess.

17. SNAP OUT OF IT, GIRL!

18. Holy crap, I just spent 32 minutes in the shower.

19. Now I have to rush. This is why we can't have nice things.

20. Okay, time to look in the mirror and see what we're working with.

21. I'm a monster.

22. This is worse than I thought. CODE RED.

23. Luckily, I'm #blessed with two new pimples this morning.

24. There goes another tube of cover up.

25. I swear, one day my skin will be flawless and I will be a goddess.

26. It will be a Taylor Swift style transformation!

27. Don't you love when the makeup all over your hands gets on everything you touch?

28. Including the dress I'm supposed to wear...

29. Oh my god, I can't wear this now.

30. Back to scavenging in my roommate's closet!

31. Where the hell is that purple lace romper she wore to semi-formal?

32. Ugh, I am so bloated and it's not going to fit.

33. How is it not here, she wore it a week ago!

34. Ah, I knew I would find you, sneaky!

35. Ew, it smells like sweat and beer.

36. A little perfume never hurt anyone, am I right?

37. Wait, YES. This is perfect. Outfit on FLEEK, for sure.

38. I better get a good Instagram later.

39. I have to leave in 15 minutes?! How did time go by that fast?

40. OH MY GOD, I forgot about my hair...

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.
