I Didn't Choose To Be A Woman, This Life Chose Me: 32 Struggles Women Know Too Well
Cheat Chic

1. I didn't choose to have boobs! $50 for a bra?! Have to wear it all day?! No.

2. Boobs are one thing, but heels too?! OK bye.

3. Nails? $50. Hair? $100. Makeup? Too much f***ing money. Being a woman? I would say priceless but we all know that's not true.

4. Have 10 minutes to get to class? Might as well skip.

5. Sitting in class and feeling the infamous doom that you forgot tampons.

6. And the question "Do you have a tampon?"

7. Sex before marriage, and you're a whor-able person, but don't worry guys, you'll get a pat on the back.


8. Stalking your ex's Instagram, Facebook and Twitter at 4 in the morning, even though it pisses you off, you still go deeper and deeper into endless feeds of disappointment.

9. We all know that third-wheeling with two girls that are best friends is way worse than third-wheeling with a couple. It's a fact.

10. Wondering where your bobby pins go. WHERE. DO. THEY. GO.


11. Rubbing your eyes, forgetting you have mascara on.

12. Whining that you want to go out, but once you're out, you want to go home.

13. Walking into your house and taking your pants off before anything.

14. Online shopping is no longer a pastime, it's an addiction.

15. Owning a whole drawer of yoga pants.

16. Two moods: heels and curled hair, sweats and a bun.

17. Shaving your legs. Shaving your armpits. Shaving f***ing everything.

18. When your hair gets stuck to your lipgloss.


19. Spending the money to get a manicure that inevitably chips the next day.

20. After eating anything and automatically want to unbutton your jeans.

21. Searching around in a crazy panic around your house because you think you lost your phone, but really, you're sitting on it.

22. Need a pen from your purse? Good luck.

23. Running with boobs is torture.

24. Rompers and jumpsuits are cute until you're in a bathroom stall peeing and you're also naked.

25. Forgiving but NEVER forgetting.

26. Having the opposite hair you've ever wanted and always saying, "Ugh I wish I had your hair".

27. Getting braces off and everyone saying "Wow, you're so hot."What, was I not hot before?

28. Getting pissed at "The Bachelor" and yelling at the screen as if they can hear you.

29. Wearing a dress because it is so easy with no buttons or tightness and people tell you that you look nice, but really you were just lazy.

30. Watching so much "Grey's Anatomy" that you're starting to believe that you could perform surgeries tomorrow as a third-year resident.

31. Having too many things pile up and your definition of venting turns into a list of things that don't even matter like "I had to brush my hair today" while crying into a tub of ice cream.

32. When boys say, "Wow, are you going to eat all that?" Why yes, yes I am sir. Just throw the glare, girl.

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.
