65 Thoughts Every Scatterbrained Person Has On A Daily Basis

"Scatterbrained" is a kinder term I am using in place of harsher words like "unorganized," "jumbled" and "chaotic." If any of those words describe you – *DING DING DING* – you are a scatterbrain. Welcome to the club! We would throw a party, but we'll probably forget, so never mind. Anyways, if you still do not believe that you are a scatterbrain, I have compiled a list of my thoughts on a daily basis. If you relate to this at all, congrats.

1. Shut up alarm.

2. Snooze.

3. Okay, time to get up. I have class in 45 minutes, and I still need to shower.

4. Snooze.

5. Sh*t, I'm going to be late again.

6. Snooze.

7. Well, looks like I'm not going to have time to shower this morning.

8. Oooh I'll wear that cute top I bought last week!

9. Wait, where is it?

10. I literally just put it in my closet.

11. There it is...on the floor...in a ball...wrinkled.

12. Definitely don't have time to iron. As if I know how to iron. LOL.

13. Okay, pack my bag...

14. Wait, I need to eat breakfast.

15. Okay put my toast in the toaster... Don't forget about it...don't forget about it...

16. I don't even remember what class I have today.

17. Did I submit my homework last night?

18. Sh*t I didn't...I got distracted again.

19. Damn you, petfinder.com

20. As if I could take care of a dog; I can't even take care of myself.

21. Is that the smoke detector?

22. Damn it.

23. Alright, I wasn't that hungry anyways.

24. Okay, I need to get to class in five minutes...

25. ...But it's a 10-minute walk.

26. Well, I'll run there since I'll probably won't be going to the gym later.

27. Okay, only five minutes late. Not bad...

28. Why is my professor giving me a dirty look? Like he hasn't been late before.

29. Whatever, I'm just going to try to pay attention.

30. Okay! Only zoned out a few times this class.

31. Time to write this homework down in my cute new planner that I spent $30 on...

32. Where the hell is it?

33. Oops...

34. Okay, I'll write it down in my notebook and write it my planner later.

35. HA

36. I literally don't know where my only organizational tool is at this moment.

37. Whatever I'll just find it when I get home.

38. And I'm going to finally clean my room.

39. Whoops, almost got hit by a bus because I didn't look before I crossed the street.

40. Stop flipping me off bus driver. If you saw this Vine, you wouldn't have looked up either.

41. Where's my key?

42. I left it on the counter when my toast was on fire...

43. Why is my life a joke?

44. Oh, yeah because I make it a joke.

45. Oh, wait, my door isn't locked. Perfect.

46. Wait... Damn it.

47. Okay, okay, nothing got stolen.

48. There's my key! And my burnt toast I forgot to clean up...

47. I forgot to take my laundry out of the dryer...

48. It's so wrinkled probably...I'll just throw it in the dryer again.

49. Alright time to start my homework.

*six hours later*

50. Only six hours to do two assignments that should have taken me two hours max.

51. Solid.

52. Social media is going to be the death of me.

53. I think I have carpal tunnel from scrolling so much.

54. Okay, gotta pick a playlist for my shower...

55. Oh wait, I have to start the water first.

56. Finally found it! Wait, has the water really been running for 15 minutes?

*one hour later*

57. Why do I look like a prune?

58. Wow, I lost track of time...nothing new.

59. Ah, I can't wait to go to bed.

60. I wish I remembered to make my bed this morning.

61. Wait isn't my laundry still in the dryer?

62. Oh well, I just run it for a third time in the morning.

63. Do I have an assignment due at midnight?

64. Oh, it's 12:15.

65. Sh*t.

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.

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.
