Congratulations On The Oscar, Leo DiCaprio

Pretty much everyone has heard the results of the Academy Awards and which actors/actresses won Oscars and who didn't. And, I know that the Internet has already been swamped with fans talking about the most waited for Oscar award ever: Leonardo DiCaprio's.

I just want all of us die-hard, lifelong Leo fans to take some time to appreciate the fact that our boy finally received the award he has so deserved for such a long time. We have all watched him grow up as an actor and we have followed him through his career.

Now our little Leo is all grown up and winning an Oscar! We are so proud.

Or, at least I am.

However, I have a bone to pick with the voters because there were so many other times he should have or could have won due to his amazing acting skills.

I will be the first to admit that I did not watch all of Leo's movies when they came out, since I was born in 1992 and his first nomination was in 1994 for a movie that came out when I was a year old, "What's Eating Gilbert Grape".

Now, if you are anything like me, you fell in love with Leo when he played Jack, the incredibly romantic hunk, in Titanic. You also probably continued to drool over him as you and he both grew older and more mature.

Because let's face it. He is gorgeous!

Now, his looks aren't the only thing we like about him. He has captivated us with his acting. He has brought characters to life for us to get attached to, and he made us fall in love with the ideas he brought to life on the big screen.

We would get proud and excited when his name would come up for nominations.

We felt pain and heartbreak when he didn't win, and every time he would get a new nomination the cycle started all over again.

This year, when the nominations came out and we saw that our Leo was nominated for Best Actor for his role in "The Revenant", it was no different for us. Except this year we got our happy ending.

He got nominated.

Our hopes kept rising.

The award show night approached and got underway.

This time, Leo won.

As he walked to the stage to accept his award, our hearts collectively soared and tightened with joy as we teared up with pride. We held on to every word he spoke in his acceptance speech and we wept in admiration.

Our Leo...that was our Leo finally winning his Oscar.

Leonardo DiCaprio, we, all of your fans, want you to know how proud we are of you!

Here's to you, man.

Congratulations!

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.
