With the winter months and cold weather quickly approaching for those of us who are not lucky enough to live at the beach year wold, us beach blondes are in for yet another rude awakening.

1. Our luscious blonde locks are starting to fade.

For those of you who get beautiful natural blonde highlights in the summer sun, those blonde streaks are now starting to fade and grow out. It is so depressing to see the dull, dirty blonde roots growing back in with out the sun kissed highlights. And if you're like me and you're too cheap to pay for root touch ups at the salon, you'll suffer until May with your dull hair.

2. The tans fade too. 

I don't know what is worse, losing your beach blonde hair or losing your sun kissed tan skin. As your summer tan slowly starts to fade away so does your happiness from the summer months. The only thing to look forward for now is thanksgiving and Christmas, but after that its just dull, cold, snow-filled days.

3. As much as we love a winter wonder land, Christmas in the sand sounds perfect. 

The best time of the year is Christmas and Summer vacation at the beach, so of course combining the two would be amazing.

4. We'd rather be hot than cold, so winter just doesn't work for us. 

If you live somewhere in winter where it gets cold, even if its just below 40 degrees you're so over it. After New Years, you no longer want anything to do with the cold weather so you just want it to be summer.

5. The sunshine makes us happy.

In the winter when it is cold and dark, it is hard to be your happy, bubbly self when you can't even get out of bed or you will be freezing. Without being able to be outside with the sunshine on your skin, your happiness and motivation fades along with your tan and highlights.

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.
