Being Girly and Loving Every Minute

Being an annoying but careless girl is one of the best feelings

Being Girly and Loving Every Minute
Angela Lydon

Being a girl can be pretty difficult; trying to appeal to others in a physical sense, dealing with cramps and everything in between. Yet, there are a variety of upsides that make being a girl in her youth, one of the best experiences in the world. This is not to say that being a man has no fun value to it, but we sure get our share of girly indulgences.

1.Playing with our ridiculously long hair

Yeah, we know it’s annoying. Especially when we giggle for no reason while we twirl it around our fingers. Having long, soft strands of hair is just so inviting. Twisting, twirling and even brushing our hair sends us into hair heaven. It’s actually embarrassing. Don’t even get me started one when we discover hair color..

2.The results of shaving our legs

Shaving absolutely sucks. Whether you choose in the shower or not, it’s just a time consuming and tedious activity. But the feel of our smooth skin after we finish, is totally worth beding over and breaking your back in the shower to make sure you have covered every spot. Putting on soft sweat pants after is just an added bonus.

3.Shopping for accessories

Ok, to be fair, this is something men can do and enjoy just as much as us. Yet, going to the mall with your pack of friends and trying on an abundance of clothes, is the most entertaining thing. From sunglasses, to dresses we will never wear, to jewelry, there is never a shortage when you hit the mall.

4.Painting our nails

Picking out the right color and shade can be quite the ordeal. No one likes using the overpowering polish remover and sculpting to get the perfect nail shape. But flaunting that new bright color for the season is so satisfying, we even stare at our own hands while driving.

5.Perfume and make-up..enough said

Once a girl discovers these two things, it’s all over. We have reached the point of no return. Experimenting with eye colors and different brands is almost as fun as picking out a new hand bag. Some days we go for the natural look, other times we like the dramatic eye catching appearance. Nothing beats getting ready for an event with your friends and laughing while applying your favorite make-up shades.

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.
