Seven Types Of Cousins

Cousins are an important part of our lives, you either love your cousins or you hate them. And if by chance you are born in a "Brown family," then I don't even have to explain how many cousins we have or how much fun it is when everyone gets together. Nevertheless, we can all relate to having these particular types of cousins.

1. The Cool Cousin

This is the cousin that everyone just loves, you don't know why but you love them, too. He/she has the smarts and wits to keep everyone in a good mood, and has a caring personality. Usually this is the oldest cousin in the family.


2. The "Too Cool For You" Cousin

This is the cousin that is a bit ignorant and at times even rude. He/she doesn't want to associate with the rest of the group on a family trip and is often irritated with the world. Usually the cousin that just entered their teen years. Although it's pretty funny to "people watch" this person.


3. The "One" Cousin

This is that one cousin that your parents compare you with all the time! Why don't you get good grades like him? Why aren't you an athlete like her? Why are you so lazy? Learn something from your cousin! You especially have to deal with this if you are born to Brown parents. #desiproblems


4. The Pretty Cousin

This is the cousin that's stunningly gorgeous and you wonder why those family genes didn't get to you. Usually a girl, but every now and then it's a guy, and you take a million selfies with them.


5. The Weird Cousin

This is the cousin that you knowingly or unknowingly steer away from. They're the one that don't fit into your group, and when they do, they creep you out.


6. The Knowledgeable Cousin

This is the person who is extremely smart and excellent at academia, more like a walking encyclopedia. They have knowledge about anything and everything-- if you have trouble in school, this is your go-to person.



7. The Mature Cousin

These are the soft spoken and understanding cousins. They are easy to talk to, they listen to your problems, and even help you come up with your own solutions. Your parents are at ease if they come with you on a trip, sometimes to the point that they trust him/her more that you. They are usually the humble one in the group.


Tag a cousin! And let us know who you relate with!

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.
