Pay Day, the day that solves all your problems. Well, that is supposed to solve all your problems. Every two weeks us hardworking employees anxiously wait for Pay Day to arrive and bless our bank accounts. For most people, Pay Day usually lands on a Friday, which means we finally have money again to spend during the weekend, right? Well, that's not always the case. Pay Day is a wonderful day that brings many people joy, but it can also be another reminder of just how broke you really are. Here are a few gifs that perfectly describe the ups and downs of Pay Day.

1. The day before

A gif to resemble the day before Pay Day. Some people may spend this day trying to calculate how much they are going to get this pay period and try to do the responsible thing and figure out how much money is going to bills and important stuff. Others (like me) spend this day dreaming about all the ways they are going to blow their pay check on ridiculous non-necessity things. Either way, all we want is our money!

2. Pay Day

Finally, Pay Day arrives and this gif perfectly demonstrates the happy dance we all do while counting our money after we stop at the ATM after Pay Day. If you don't have your Pay Day money dance you aren't doing Pay Day right.

3. The celebration

On Pay Day we feel like we can do anything that involves money. Anyone who works hard for a paycheck should be allowed to use their money any way they please, but sometime we get carried away with our paycheck and start throwing money around like it's nothing. #makeitrain

4. The illusion of a nice check

A gif so perfect it's ridiculous. This gif is a great representation of how, for some reason, we always seem to talk ourselves into buying something we know we shouldn't be spending our pay check on because thinking is for the poor.

5. The reality of adulthood

This gif describes the way we feel on Pay Day when we realize we have to use half of our check on bills. All we want is to enjoy our money, is that too much to ask?!

6. The reality of reality

This gif is a representation of the exact moment you check your bank account after a long weekend and paying those bills you had been dreading.

7. The conclusion

Since you blew all your money on pointless stuff and bills, here you are, explaining to your friends why you can't make it to the bars tonight. See you in another two weeks, Pay 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.
