5 Reasons Why You Wish You Grew A Twin

1. Nothing is a secret

Growing up, there were no secrets left unsaid, no lies kept under the rug and no dish left undealt. No matter how bad the secret is or how juicy the gossip, having a twin means that whatever is said, no matter what, is safe with them. Plus, because twins know all of each others secrets, there is no shock value.

2. Partner in Crime

Having a twin means always having an alibi when it comes to sibling rivalry or family feud. Family meetings always meant hell for one of the siblings, but having a twin allows for each one to have each others back. No matter how annoying they were to each other during the day, at family meetings it was do or die and neither of the twins were dying!

3. Twice the clothes

Twins equal double everything, including clothes! Having a twin basically doubles the amount of clothes each twin gets to pick through. Sneaking into each others rooms in the middle of the night to pick out the perfect top to complete their outfit or snatching up each others shoes is just built into the contract of sibling-hood.

4. Bullies backed off

Twins are basically bodyguards for each other when it comes to drama, sass, or bullying. No matter why people talk crap on the two, twins are bound to step in front of a bullet to defend their favorite sibling.

5. Tricking people with mind control

EVERY twin has been asked if they can control each others mind, so obviously this was the one thing all twins took advantage of. By the time the question of “mind control” makes it into conversations, it is a guarantee that each of the siblings had already compiled a way to trick their friends into thinking that one twin could center all of their force on making a punch in the arm hurt for the other twin.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

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.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

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.
