Being Single As Told by Schmidt From 'New Girl'
Vulture

As a single-pringle, life is very different from that of your taken friends. The dating game is always mildly frustrating, but equally addictive, you don't have to worry about rocking the groufit, and there is so much freedom. Rocking a single status has its perks and definitely some downfalls. Schmidt from the television series New Girl knows better than anyone.

1. Some people look at being single as the end of the world.


But in reality, there are so many bigger problems in the world than not having a significant other.

2. But being single is actually pretty awesome.


"You mean I don't have to spend all my money on someone else, and I don't have to shave everyday? What a travesty!"

3. You can go out and have fun!

4. When it comes to playing it cool, sometimes you have 0 chill.

What are people attracted to anyway?

5. Sometimes you just want to bang the hot guy at the bar.


Because you can!

6. When your family members ask if you're seeing anyone...


The answer always gets a little tricky.

7. You try to be happy for your friends in relationships.

But you're just a teensy-bit jealous of their cuteness.

8. You never have to worry about being tied down, because...

9. Story-time with your friends in relationships is always entertaining.

The love to hear about all your dating escapades.

10. Sometimes you sink into a "forever alone" episode.


Full with crying, ice cream, and rom-coms.

11. And even though they try to comfort you, non-singles don't understand.

12. Looking another couple's PDA, just makes you sick.


Can you please remove the googly-eyes and hand-holding? Some of us are trying to be single in peace.

13. Sometimes you wonder if it's you.


Maybe there's something wrong with you.

14. And watching all your friends in relationships makes you feel lonely.

You miss having someone to talk to and love.

15. But then you remember that you're amazing, and you can do whatever you want!

And without judgment!

16. You can go out basically whenever you want.

And flirt your little heart out!

17. Coming home at the end of the night can be a little sad.


Body pillows are a single gals' best friend.

18. But at the end of the day, you know you are perfectly happy being single...


And absolutely killing it.

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.
