5 Stages of Writers Block
UCWbling

Have you ever just stared at your computer and not know what the heck to write and think to yourself “Oh great! Now I got writers block!” Writers block is that big P word, a pain, a BIG pain in the butt. These are the five stages of writer's block that you will reach.

1. Frustration

This is the first stage of writers block because this is when you finally realize that you can not think of anything to write and you just want to bang your head against the wall and scream.

2. Annoyance

This is the second stage of writers block because you are annoyed at the fact that your brain cannot function to create words and sentences in enough time for this assignment to be due.

3. Anger

This is the third stage of writers block because you are just getting pissed off at the fact that there is just nothing but a blank document on your computer with only your name and nothing else

4. Stress

This is the fourth stage of writer block because you are finally realizing that the deadline is coming up for the assignment to be handed in.

5. Anxiety

This is the last stage of writers block because you are probably very near the deadline and your heart is racing and you still only have your name on the document when the assignment is due the next morning.

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.
