Dad Versus Daughter: A Matter Of Opinions On Trends
Lauren Mehle

My dad and I don't always see eye-to-eye, especially when it comes to current trending topics. One day, I decided to ask him what he thought on some of the current hot news. Feel free to LOL at some of his responses.

1. Kanye West

Dad: "Arrogant." I asked what he thought about West's music. His response? "I don't."

Me: I like his old music. I hate him; he is overrated and his recent music sucks.

2. Nordstrom's rock in a pouch for $85

Dad: "I feel sorry for the sucker who buys it," which was followed with, "I must be a billionaire! I have a lot of rocks in the backyard!"

Me: WTF.

3. Uncle wearing suit for his newborn niece because "first impressions matter"

Me: OK, this is so adorable! I think it's great that a young person knows how important first impressions are, because we all are guilty of forgetting that.

Dad: "It's awesome he put forth the effort to be respectful in meeting his niece for the first time. There will be pictures taken and his niece will see that her uncle felt it was important [to look his best]."

4. "Hollyweed" sign

Dad: "Dumb. If people spent their time doing something productive instead of stupid we could have more problems solved."

Me: LMAO. What a hilarious way to start 2017! It is gonna be a rad year.

5. Mariah Carey's NYE performance

Dad: "Unprofessional, but funny." I then asked his thoughts on how Mariah is now blaming a different people for the fiasco: "She needs to take responsibility, too. It's her performance. She is not entitled, big, or important to blame everyone else for it."

Me: I didn't watch it, but I heard about it and thought it was kind of funny. I'm not a huge Mariah fan, and I think she's a brat, so naturally I thought it was ironically funny.

I encourage you to ask your parents, guardians and family what their opinions are. I hope it doesn't end in a family feud!

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.
