Are You Like Jess From 'New Girl'?

Whether you watch the show or not, you might find that you're more like Jess than you think. If you are awkward, funny, outgoing, have a solid group of friends, and are just straight up cool then you're most likely the "Jess" in your friend group.

1. You spot a cute guy.

When you are casually drinking your morning coffee and catching up on some reading, bam! You can't help but start to drool and awkwardly stare at the 6'4 tall blonde that just walked in.


2. You sing to yourself.

Whether you're singing in the shower, or singing in a public restroom, you know that eventually you will never be alone. Someone is bound to join in.


3. You call yourself weird.

Your guy friend stares at you and your best friend from across the room while you all are making weird noises at each other…sorry that's our form of communication.



4. You can be heartless at times.

Every girl can admit that they can be heartless. "This world revolves around me, not you."


5. You can sometimes be a little judgmental.

You see that girl that is hanging all over her boyfriend of a week. I'm staring at you because I'm slightly confused and slightly jealous.


6. It's possible you don't always make the right decisions.

Always asking your closest friends to make a decision for you because you're obviously too indecisive. "Do I stay up late, eat this bowl of ice cream, skip class in the morning, or do all three?"


7. You wonder why people think like they do...

Your friend comes to you and tells you she is having relationship issues. She proceeded to tell you that her boyfriend hasn't texted back in a whole five minutes.


8. You are the life of the party.

You walk into a room and want people to recognize you have arrived. "The party obviously doesn't start until I walk in."


9. You end up in the wrong place during serious events.

You just heard how Becky actually was with her ex-boyfriend last night, but then her current boyfriend is your best friend. If there was a table I probably would crawl under it and never come out.


10. You try to avoid confrontation however you can.

Your friends get together for a nice and quiet movie night, but all of a sudden your friend starts nitpicking at you for something you did last week. The only thing keeping you from speaking are all those cookies you're shoveling into your mouth.


11. You don't always feel 100 percent about your appearance.

While putting on your spring break swimsuit, you ask your friends how you look. The looks on their faces reveal to you that it is not the right one. "I actually lost a whole pound last week so you can stop staring."


12. No matter what, you always have your friends.

Through thick and thin, you always have your group of friends that you can be weird and awkward with, and they still love you unconditionally.

The new girl doesn't always have to be the one who doesn't fit in. No, the new girl can be the girl who fits in because people like her distinctive personality. The "Jess" in any friend group is the one you will remember having the best of adventures and memories with. So…if you related to all these, then congratulations! People should feel honored to have you as a friend.

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.
