Nine Signs You're Young And Reckless

Summertime is all about letting go and being carefree. With no school or homework, there is nothing stopping you from having fun and doing whatever you want! Hanging out with friends is one of the most fun things to do. If you're like I am, your friends often refer to you as "crazy" or "reckless." Maybe its just because we know how to have a good time!

Here are nine signs you might be the reckless one of your friend group.

1. Your friends are afraid to drive with you.

Whether you're texting and driving, fiddling with the AC or changing the radio station, you're definitely distracted from the most important task — operating a moving vehicle. Your friends realize this and brace themselves for the bumpy ride ahead.

2. You often bump into people or things while text-walking.

Sometimes the task of walking from place to place can be boring for you, so you reach for your phone and start texting. You get so immersed in conversation that you forget to pay attention to your surroundings and accidentally fall into a random manhole in the middle of the street. It happens to the best of us!

3. You notice random bruises on your body that you don't remember getting.


Maybe they're from text-walking? Or maybe from that time you attempted parkour ...

4. You drop your phone at least once a day.

And its never intentional like Tay. It just slips out of your hands!

5. You're not afraid to take risks.

Roller coasters? No sweat. Cliff jumping? Sign me up! You only live once so you gotta have fun!

6. You're not afraid to say whats on your mind.


Most of the time you act before you think, not think before you act. This leaves people feeling offended, but hey, isn't honesty the best policy?

7. You're always the last one to leave a party.

The party has been over for a while, but as long as there's music, you'll be dancing! Who's up for an after party?

8. You are quick to jump into new relationships.

Whether its a new friendship or romantic relationship, meeting new people is exciting! You will be friends with anyone, even if they potentially hurt you later.

9. You chose to "live in the moment."

Life is short! There is no time to dwell on the past or the future. Make the most of today!

Living recklessly can be fun, but the most important thing is having fun while being safe. Enjoy living life to the fullest and always remember to look both ways!

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.
