6 Thoughts We All Have While Flying
Travel and Leisure

Flying on an airplane. If you're going across the country, or even just a few states away, it's a necessity for travel. We all have our own feelings towards flying, whether you love it or hate it, there's an extremely high chance that you have experienced these thoughts while soaring the sky in a plane.

1. Alright I'm finally boarded! Let's get this show on the road.

Or I mean get the show in the air. I want to get to my destination!

2. Hey lady next to me, can you please put your bag under your own seat and not take up all of my legroom?

On airplanes, room is tight. Every centimeter of space is valuable. So when it comes to sitting on a short row with two other people close to you, you've got to make the most of your room. Don't let the person next to you take advantage of your space. That legroom is yours, so own it and don't let the older lady next to you steal it from you!

3. Where's my travel pillow? I need to get comfy asap.

Ahh, travel pillows. What a magnificent invention. A mini packable travel necessity that you can't live without on your plane ride. Whether it be a flat pillow or a u-shaped neck pillow, you need to find it as soon as you get on your plane to maximize the time you have to rest.

4. Okay, time to take a few Snapchats before take-off!

Why would I even come on this plane and go somewhere without sharing the experience with my fellow Snapchat homies? I'll strategically place my beverage from the gift shop, my current inspirational novel, and my boarding pass on the pull down lap desk. I'm excited to be off to my destination. #Wanderlust, am I right? Is there any cool geotags where I'm at? God bless you, Snapchat, and your amazing filters.

5. Damn it! Why didn't I get a window seat?

On an airplane flight, looking out of the window during takeoff and feeling that lump in the pit of your stomach is amazing. It's just such a bummer when you want to gaze out of the window, but people are sitting in your window seat. You'll just have to deal with looking at the beauty from afar.

6. Wow, the flight is over already? That was so quick.

Time flies when you're traveling in the air. Whether you're watching a complimentary movie through the airline company, reading your inspirational novel, or taking a long snooze, the time passes by extraordinarily quick. I better get off this plane now and go claim my stuff from baggage claim.

Flying is something that I was so nervous about until recently, and now I am a huge fan of traveling via air! Flights can be fun and enjoyable and quick way to get to your destination. So although you're probably thinking all of the above thoughts while traveling, keep in mind almost everyone your age is feeling the same way on the plane. Embrace the fun of flying and be respectful of other passengers!

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.
