My life changed this morning when my sleepy fingers graced over the Twitter app icon. Immediately, the latest headline stole my gaze, "First Amazon Go Store Opens in California." You are probably thinking exactly what I said, "Amazon Go where?" Well let me tell you, Amazon Go is going to the future. Amazon Go will change anything you ever thought you knew about grocery shopping, and it will make Amazon billions.

Here is the general concept of the Amazon Go store:

Cashierless Shopping

This is awesome! This brings the greatest thing about Amazon, not having to interact with people while buying things, while forcing you to go outside because you know your kind of starting to forget what the world looks like outside of your bedroom.

High Tech Tracking Technology

Another article I read while researching Amazon Go actually read "- high tech tracking technology instead of human interaction." Again, they are targeting the right audience my friend. Amazon knows the type of people that use Amazon. We want our deliveries quick and without leaving our homes to get it.

No Money!

No cashiers. Tracking Technology. They both lead to the ultimate money making aspect of Amazon Go. No money. When you enter the store, you scan your barcode in the app, and that's it. You go get whatever you want, put it in a bag, and walk out. No waiting in lines. Nothing. It's like it's free Of course, it'll somehow through the magic of technology figure out what you bought and charge you through the Amazon Go app. However, just like on the Amazon website, you'll forget about 'money' as you see all these thing you can just have! Before you know it you 1-click delivered $100 worth of nonsense that you don't even need.


Best believe I'm filling up my bag and walking out of Amazon Go like I didn't just spend next month's rent.

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.
