My face has a mind of its own.

How I’m feeling is always written all over my face and I know I’m not the only one. It can be the ultimate struggle, at times. If you too have an over-expressive face, then you know exactly what I’m talking about when I say…

1. Your eyebrows practically have a mind of their own

They're almost permanently raised up leading you to seriously worry about forehead wrinkles.

2. There's no hiding when you're disgusted

Please keep chewing with your mouth open or licking the food off of your fingers or making those loud chewing sounds, I just love it.

3. Everyone knows when you're annoyed

Keep interrupting me, it's my favorite thing. I love it. LOVE IT.

4. Opening gifts in front of others is one of your biggest struggles

I really love the 15th bottle of lotion you've purchased for me this year. It's great. Just what I needed.

5. There's no hiding when you're bored out of your mind

You'd rather be anywhere else or doing anything else and we all know it.

6. When someone says something ignorant or offensive and you sit there like:

You're already struggling to bite back your tongue but you're not responsible for the look you're giving them.

7. When someone asks for your opinion and you don't even have to speak for them to know exactly how you're feeling

"Do you like my new shoes?" Yeah...they're great.

8. Your facial expressions have definitely gotten you in trouble

Chances are you've heard the phrases "Did you have something to add?" or "You have five seconds to fix your face" more times than you can count.

9. Trying not to react when you see someone do something embarrassing is the ultimate struggle

10. People oftentimes think you're judging them

My eyes are just naturally this wide, I promise.

11. You're constantly being asked what's wrong

12. Because how you're feeling is written all over your face and there's nothing you can do about 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.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

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.
