11 Seinfeld Quotes To Live By
Hulu

For the past month, I've been binge-watching all of "Seinfeld" --the cherry on top of a two-year obsession with the renowned "show about nothing." During this time, I've learned many valuable life lessons. I've also learned how to differentiate which season a clip is from based on the style of Elaine's hair. I've understood all of the running jokes that one doesn't catch onto when sporadically watching randomly assorted episodes. And most importantly, I learned that there is definitely something to this show about nothing. So this is the perfect opportunity to pass some of my newly acquired knowledge onto you.


1. "I gotta focus. I'm shifting into soup mode."

Sometimes, some things are so important that you've got to block out everything else. For example, overcoming temptation to procrastinate online instead of studying, or instead of chatting while waiting in line for the best soup in New York City.

2. "Not that there's anything wrong with that."

You've gotta respect the way other people live their lives. They may be different from you, but just remember their thoughts and feelings.


3. "I had to take a sick day. I'm sick of these people."

Every once in a while, nothing is better than just taking some time off for yourself.

4. "My name is George. I'm unemployed and I live with my parents."

You've gotta be true to yourself. Although this directly contradicts another of his famous lines, "It's not a lie if you believe it."

5. "No way wine is better than Pepsi."

Oftentimes, it's the simple things in life that make us feel the best.

6. "I proclaim this the Summer of George!"

You've got plenty of reasons to be hopeful. Wish for the best for yourself and everybody else in everything.


7. "This was supposed to be the Summer of George."

Things won't always go the way you expect them to or want them to. Sometimes you've just got to resign yourself to that fact.

8. "Serenity now!"

Whenever you're feeling overwhelmed by anything, just utter this line. It'll help relieve stress. And nobody said you didn't have to shout it.


9. "Well the Jerk Store called, and they're running out of you!"

A handy line for whenever somebody is giving you crap. Known as possibly the best comeback ever.

10. "These pretzels are making me thirsty!"

Stay hydrated, kids. Become a citizen of the hydration nation.

11. "I am down. I am totally down. Mark me down!"

Sometimes in life, you've got to jump into things headfirst. You've gotta be eager, and maybe even wear a backwards hat. You've gotta try new things. Whenever anybody asks me if I want to watch Seinfeld, this is how I reply.


So now you've gained some new perspective and some handy life advice. Go use it!

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.
