Sinners and Saints Bar

Whether it's Ladies' Night, or you're going out bar hopping with the boo thing, you're getting yourself mentally ready for anything and everything. As you're picking out which high heels to wear, and letting your hair dry, prepare yourself for these types of people that you will run into at a bar.

1. The Regular

When you go to that one bar that you and your friends all enjoy, you notice the same man there every time. He's not a bother to anyone, and most of the time he's just hovering over a beer looking at the drunk people. You'll never know how intoxicated he may be because he keeps to himself.

2. The Party Girl

She may be shoving drinks down your throat or someone else's. Either way, if she sees you without an alcoholic beverage, chances are she's going to take seven shots for you and then feed you seven of your own shots. She's the reason they call it a pub crawl.

3. The Hunter

This person came out for the hunt. He may have come out alone, but he's not going home alone. When he comes up behind you and starts dancing with you, you better have one good friend that's prepared to pull you away.

4. The Brooder

Something went terribly, terribly wrong over the course of this person's life. He may be on the verge of being a regular and he's definitely the person that you just want to hug when you sit down next to him. Or perhaps you're too afraid to sit next to him because no one else is. He has a tendency to give chilling vibes that make the seats around him unavailable.

5. The Drunk Mom

Tell the bartender to keep the wine coming because this mom knows how to go hard. She's past the Franzia boxed wine phase, and her kids have driven her mad. It wouldn't be a terrible thing to be her in your older days. She seems rather fun as she cackles and hoots. She becomes annoying when she starts worrying constantly about if she left the stove on.

6. The Bottomless Pit


For the duration of the night, you've watched this person throw back a variety of drinks. You envy the strength of their liver, but you do not envy their wallet. Wait a few more drinks before you start putting your drinks on his tab.

7. The Dancer

The dancer is perfect for a Ladies' Night because every song is their jam, so you'll be dancing the night away for sure. She doesn't care who's watching, she's going to sing her heart out and spin circles around everyone. She even keeps going after she falls flat on her face.

8. Then there's me

I'm not purposefully awkward by any means, it's a gift. Most of the time I'm watching everyone stumble around, and other times I'm simply praying no one touches me. There are those rare occasions when I hope someone will talk to me, but not usually. I just want to observe everyone so I can find things to write about the next day.

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.
