Harry Potter and Cucumber Melon Shower Gel: Addictions or Obsessions?

When you think of a strange addiction you think of someone eating or drinking something that isn't necessarily edible, not just an obsession with Harry Potter or a scent. However, my obsession is so outrageous I have multiple people ask me for the bags I own on a regular basis or ask me what shower gel I use because it smells so good.

I was first introduced to Harry Potter in the third grade when I could read above my grade level and that sparked my obsession, and ever since, any shirt, or anytime I see someone reading the books or watching the movies I stop and look over their shoulders. "You can't possibly be this obsessed with one series, can you?", well I guess so considering people are so hung up on the Lord of the Rings and Star Wars.

I started using Cucumber Melon from Avon thanks to my Aunt and I've honestly been hooked on it ever since. It is the most soothing scent I have ever smelled and it doesn't make my skin flare up with eczema and when my skin does flare up, cucumber melon doesn't burn it. Eating cucumbers all the time is another fun way to compare how nice this shower gel smells, it smells just like actual cucumbers and not artificial stuff.

I often believe the obsessions get out of hand because all I tend to buy are cucumber melon shower gels and I often tend to only look at Harry Potter merchandise, but who can blame me? (don't answer that). Harry Potter is seriously my favorite thing, honestly, it was all my cousin and I would talk about when we would see each other, and she gave me her denim jacket that was custom made. Believe me, the obsession is real.

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.
