The other day, I was browsing through my Facebook when I saw an ad for the most bizarre thing. A banana hammock! A few more hours of surfing and my e-cart was full of the most interesting things! And so that you don't have to waste time looking for these, I present to you:

1. The Banana Hammock

Extremely beachy vibes, innit? The Banana Hammock is like a hammock, but for bananas. Because bananas are the superior fruit. They deserve a special throne. Need I say more?

If your love for bananas is especially is immensely strong, go for the Plastic Banana Guard as well.

2. Desktop Punching Bag

Are you ever sitting at your desk and suddenly feel the urge to throw your laptop across the room? Same. Unfortunately, we are not all billionaires who can afford to break laptops and smash televisions every time we get angry. Which is why we NEED this desktop punching bag.

3. Clean Dreams Kitchen Sponge Holder

Look! I found Spongebob's bed! Your kitchen sponge also deserves a special throne. As if it isn't already getting enough rest (I know you never wash the dishes).

4. The Experience Tube

Here's the deal.

I love talking. I can go on and on about anything and everything. What I need is people who will listen to me. Because, you know, I can't survive without attention. Which is why this is my favourite product on the list. With the Experience Tube, you can now entrap whoever you want to in your endless chat sessions.

Who doesn't like constant, undivided attention?

5. Bluecrate's Selfie Light

This Selfie Light is to my Instagram feed what corn is to the residents of Illinois: a necessity. It's small, it's easy to use and it works great! No more dull selfies.

Prepare to drown in my selfies, people of Instagram.

6. Egg of Thrones Egg Cup

If your bananas and sponges get thrones, why not eggs? For all you Game of Thrones fans out there, the Egg of Thrones Egg Cup!

7. Airplane Armrest Divider

As if being stuck in a floating metallic tube, thousands of meters up in the sky wasn't enough, I also have some random guy's arm awkwardly brushing against mine while I try to find a comfortable position to sleep in. The Airplane Armrest Divider is the solution! No more silent wars over who gets to keep their arm on the armrest. Now you can peacefully complain about all the other parts of the journey.

Before I knew about these products, I didn't know I needed them! But now I am sure I do! Kudos to all the creative minds of the 21st century!

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.
