What It's Like To Be A Cincinnati Sports Fan

The Bengals have Cincinnati feeling all different types of ways every season, but if you are from Cincinnati, you know you can only be a Bengals fan or else you can leave (especially if you are a Steelers fan).


Here's what it looks like to be a Bengals Fan:


Getting ready for the season has you like:



When the season starts and things are actually going well and everyone's just like:


Then a Browns fan tries to tell you they are the better Ohio team:



But suddenly an important player gets injured and you just sit there and think about how bad life is like:


If you are a true Bengals fan you know we have high hopes the Bengals season will go well, but when they start going downhill again, the let-down is harsh:


But then you realize that at least you aren't a steelers fan:



At this point, all the non-loyal Bengals fans come out acting like one bad game makes us the worst team in the NFL like:


But all the true fans are standing back like this, even when we don't get past the play-offs. Maybe next year.



When the season ends and spring rolls around, it's a whole new ballgame (literally) and the Reds got you feeling whole new type of way:


Opening Day is basically a holiday for Cincy sports fans. You have to go all out in Reds' apparel because we just love the redlegs so much.


When you finally get to the ballpark and you spend an obnoxious amount on Skyline coneys because is it really a baseball game if you don't?


You also spend an obnoxious amount of money on a single beer because what's a baseball game without a nice brew in your hand to cool you off?


And after a couple nice brews these are your seven favorite words to hear:


Then when the summer is over everyones just like, "Wait, the Reds are still playing? What?"


But no matter what, you will be a Reds fan for life

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.
