A Back-to-School Guide to Planners
Changes Approved

The new school year is upon us and you know what that means...planners. Planners are my absolute favorite back to school accessory. I love being able to write down everything I have going on in a day and every little thing I have to do that day. Nothing makes me feel like I have my life together quite like my planner does. I’m currently using an Erin Condren LifePlanner but I figured I’d offer some advice on the best planner for different lifestyles!

Target Academic Planner

The target academic planner is perfect for someone who hasn't had a planner before, likes to keep their planners simple, or doesn't need anything but something to write a few things each day in! This is probably perfect for high school students because it has a monthly spread at the beginning of each month and then each week spreads across two pages with a few lines to write on for each day! These planners also come in various patterns.

Price: $16.99

Size: 11" x 9.25"

Lilly Pulitzer Agenda


Lilly Pulitzer agendas are quite popular amongst teenage girls and I totally get why. They're fun! The bright colors and patterns make planning out your day an enjoyable thing. This agenda features the same set out as the planner listed above; a monthly spread and a few lines for each day and every 2 pages is a week. This planner does come with cute extras like an address book in the front, a travel plans page, and a page of super cute stickers.

Price: $30

Size: 6 3/4" x 8 7/8"



Erin Condren LifePlanner

The Erin Condren LifePlanner is just that, it's literally my life. I love this planner so much. The set up is clean and cute and it comes with lots of accessories that only make planning easier. My favorite thing about the planner is all of the personalization possibilities. You can pick your cover, which is a plastic laminate cover and you can put your name or initials on it. You can also pick the layout of your planner. Each page spread is a week but the set up is different. You can pick an hour by hour of each day, a set up where each day is broken into three sections, or a set up where each day has a few lines to write on. The beginning of each month has a monthly spread and a blank page before that to write motivational quotes for the month. The back of the planner has blank and grid pages for scrapbooking or doodling. This planner also comes with stickers, an address book, and a pouch full of cute inspirational quotes, bookmarks, and more stickers. I think this planner is great for someone who likes to organize their life hour by hour. It's definitely the planner for a busy person.

Price: $55

Size: 7.25" x 9.25"


DayDesigner

This planner is a dream. The day designer has large pages and so many cute options of cover designs to choose from. I just can't get enough. This planner comes with a page for each day and half of the page is an hour by hour planner of the day and the other half is a to do list for the day. This is a combination of the Erin Condren LifePlanner with all the other planners I've mentioned. This planner also comes with a front pocket cover, monthly spreads, and fun tear outs! You can also purchase just the inserts for the planner and put them in any binder you choose. This planner is for the super busy and super organized and I can't wait to get my hands on one of these once I've finished the planner I have now!

Price: $59

Size: 9" x 9.75"

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.
