30 Things I'd Rather Do That Go To The Dentist

Going to the dentist's office is the worst thing on earth. Sitting there waiting for your name to be called to be the next victim with the smell of fluoride and toothpaste in the air isn't how I want to spend my day off. Then they call your name, you go back in the back and sit in the big body chair. That's when the doctor starts to pick at your teeth and interrogate you about your hygienic habits. Here's a list of things that I'd rather be doing than go to dentist.

1. Attend a Funeral

2. Have brain surgery

3. Run a marathon in 120-degree weather

4. Have a million mosquitoes sting me at once

5. Clean every inch of my house

6. Study for a math exam

7. Learn a new language (caveman)

8. Rob a bank

9. Swim with sharks

10. Shave my head

11. Break my face

12. Get shot

13. Have a soccer ball kicked into my stomach

14. Have my wallet stolen

15. Stand outside in a tornado

16. Have a coconut fall on my head

17. Be stranded in the middle of an ocean

18. Be a poop scooper at the circus

19. Have the crimson tide rush over me every single day for the rest of my life

20. Drink soap

21. Have my car die in the middle of traffic

22. Have a bird take a crap on my head

23. Have to pay the bills

24. Burn the last box of mac n cheese

25. Burn to a crispy tomato from the sun

26. Stand on an erupting volcano

27. Be lost on a stranded island with nothing but a volleyball

28. Have a 10-hour-long bloody nose

29. Break every bone in my body

30. Get attacked by a rabid dog

As you can see I really don't enjoy the dentist. I'd much rather live my life in peace than have to deal with this war outside between me versus the tooth doctors because I probably won't win.

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.
