6 Things You Can Relate To If You're The 'Younger Friend'

Being the youngest of your friend group is a blessing and a curse. More often than not, though, its a curse. Here are a few struggles that every young friend can probably relate to.

1. You're the last person to get your license

I was one of the last ones in my friend group to get my license. Everyone else got to ride around in style without their moms, but I was still hitchin' rides from my mom until May.

2. You're always being called the "baby"

I am called the baby of my friend group all too often. Yes, I get it, my birthday is late. Thanks for the reminder.

3. "You're so young!"

Really? Thank you for telling me, I couldn't remember!

4. You're the last to turn 21

Do I need to say a whole lot for this one? All my friends getting crunk in the club while I'm sitting on my couch watching Netflix.

5. Your friends never let you forget the fact that you're the youngest

Need to settle a disagreement on who gets the last ___? We're always hit with the "I was born first."

6. You'll be younger when everyone else is old

When you'll be 60, we'll still be 59.

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.
