We all have that one album we just vibe to because it relates to our lives so much. Well for me right now, Dua Lipa's self-entitled album is doing just that. If you don't believe me that this album is the bomb.com, just let the lyrics do the talking, or maybe the singing.

Genesis

“This is getting serious // Tell me that it’s not the end of us.”

We all have those falling outs with close friends, and when it happens, it feels like the most devastating thing of our lives.

Lost In Your Light

“I’m addicted to your light.”

We all have that one friend that is always an optimist and offers support whenever, so when we talk to them, it’s like the sun breaking through the clouds on an overcast day.

Hotter Than Hell

“Can let me know I’m wanted // Can let me in your head // I’m not here to make you kneel // But it’s praise that I’ll get."

This song serves as a reminder that we all deserve to know where we stand with someone in a relationship, and that we will always demand we be treated correctly; it’s not controlling, just reminding the other person that we want respect over anything.

Be The One

“There is nothing that I wouldn’t do for you // Do for you, do for you // Oh, ‘cause you got inside my head.”

Sometimes we get blinded by other people, and we forget who we are because of how we feel when we’re with them. We start to put ourselves second, and this line is a wake up call.

IDGAF

“So I made my decision // Cause you made your bed, sleep in it // Play the victim and switch your position // I’m through, I’m done.”

After the wake up call in the last song, we’ve been reminded of what we’re worth and what we deserve, and are ready to move on.

Blow Your Mind (Mwah)

“I know we’ve got // Something that money can’t buy.”

There’s always those friendships in life that we’re forever thankful to have, and could never replace or imitate, and it’s always a blessing when we realize that.

Garden

“Isn’t it so clear to see // Nothing’s ever perfect in paradise // Don’t know what it’s worth ‘til you pay the price.”

It’s easy to get caught up in the fun and thrills of friendship, and forget the deep meaning of it, but when we lose it, we remember and miss about the deep connection and the support that was there under the glitter and rainbows.

No Goodbyes

“Maybe one day I can see you // We can smile and wave // And it’ll be okay.”

When we’re fighting with someone, we always only think about being okay again until we’re slapped with the reality that that may not happen for some time.

Thinking ‘Bout You

“I can’t stop thinking ‘bout you.”

There’s always that one person we can’t ever seem to get off our minds…

New Rules

“Practice makes perfect // I’m still tryna’ learn it by heart.”

We’re always trying to find ourselves and how to make ourselves a better version of us, but we forget that being better doesn’t happen all at once.

Begging

“Cause all my bones // Are begging me to beg for you.”

There’s always one person in our lives that we wish we could go back to, even when the universe tells us it’s not meant to be.

Homesick

“It’s a bittersweet feeling // Longing and I’m leaving.”

Pining after someone is never, ever healthy, but man is it easy. The hardest part is always when reality hits, and we have to move on.

Dreams

“It just got complicated, I don’t know what to do.”

There are times when we find ourselves in difficult situations and just get lost.

Room For 2

“See, everyone ain’t the same // We’re more than machines.”

Sometimes, we forget that others are people too, with feelings and reasons.

New Love

“Want somewhere to go.”

Sometimes, a simple car ride with the windows down and no destination is the medicine we need.

Bad Together

“We make a great team // With you, I’m better than I’ve ever been.”

We all have that one friend that always seems to encourage us to be our better selves.

Last Dance

“Way too soon to feel so strong // Way too young to hurt so long, I’m hurtin’ // Was it worth it?”

Living in this generation, it’s easy to get swept up and invested in one person. When things go wrong, it hurts, and we wonder where things went wrong.


If that rundown of Dua Lipa's skill with song writing didn't convince you how relatable and plain amazing this album is, I don't think there's any saving you. She's a legend, and that's all I have to say about that.

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.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

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.
