Buzzfeed... I'm not mad. Just disappointed.

I think I speak for many young collegiates when I say I used to love Buzzfeed. LOVE Buzzfeed. Their videos were frequent and eye-catching, with titles like "Historically Accurate Disney Princesses" and "'One Size Fist All' On Different Body Types." At one point I actually declared to my family and friends that I would do my best to land an internship there and hopefully end up working for them full-time. The freedom they appear to give to their employees when it comes to dipping their hands into all sides of production, as well as the collaborative aspect of the company, was intriguing to me. Working there seemed like the perfect way to make money as a creative–something seemingly everyone is trying to do.

Of course, a beat after I made this declaration, I heard news of one of my favorite Buzzfeed actresses, Brittany Ashley, being promptly fired after appearing on a different web series alongside Jenny Lorenzo, another talented Buzzfeed personality. You can read about it here.

I'm the most bummed about this honestly because Brittany was involved in a brilliant series with Chris Reinacher (who ended up resigning over this past summer) that was cut short.

Clearly, Buzzfeed doesn't really give its creators as much freedom as I thought. Aside from that, their videos lately haven't been as innovative as they used to be. On the day that I'm writing this, some of their most recent videos include "Adults Try Soda-Flavored Pop-Tarts" and "This Cat Test Will Reveal If You Are An Introvert Or An Extrovert."

On a positive note, my favorite series within the company is coming back and looks promising.

I personally believe that anything associated with Quinta Brunson is destined to be quality, BROKE included.

Anyway, here's a list of ideas you can show to your local buzzie wuzzie employie.

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.
