'Big Brother' Is Ultimately THE Show Of The Summer

If you're anything like me, once spring rolls around, you anxiously begin to search online for the premiere dates of the hit show of the summer: Big Brother. If you haven't watched the show, I feel sorry for you.

The rundown: Big Brother is a reality show about approximately 16 contestants, called "house guests", who live together in a high-tech hose for the summer with absolutely no privacy. There are thirty plus cameras located around the house watching their every move.

Each week, all the house guests compete for the "Head of Household" title. This means that they nominate two house guests for eviction.

Following the HoH competition, the HoH, the two nominees, and three other house guests chosen by random draw compete for the "Power of Veto", which is the power to veto one of the nominees, and the Head of Household must put up a replacement nominee.

At the end of the week, the house guests vote to evict one of the two nominees. And then they do it all again the next week.

Sounds like just a lot of competing, right? Wrong.

It is a game of strategy. Emotions are running high inside the house. There are alliances that form, romances, or "showmances", and friendships. With all of this in the mix, it is a time you don't want to miss. People turn on alliances, fight with one another, and there is never a dull moment.

And the best part: the show is on THREE TIMES A WEEK.


And every season, there is a new twist. In the past, they have included a third nominee, new competition, or previous houseguests returning to the game for revenge.

All in all, it is a show that you don't want to miss. And let me say, it is incredibly addicting, and 100 percent binge-able.

As the show's motto states, "expect the unexpected."

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.
