8 Life Lessons I've Learned From "New Girl"

I'm a girl who is obsessed with sitcoms, and this summer I've been on a major "New Girl" kick. Not only is it hilarious, but it also gives its viewers some great life advice.

1.

It is bound to happen: people will hurt you and let you down. But like Cece said, you don't stop trying, you keep going and eventually come out on top. You can't let a setback hinder you from doing great things.

2.

In the moment when you are feeling hopeless and feel like that it's just too hard to deal with your current problems, you will see it best to just run away from them. But they will follow you and you will also run into more and they will keep piling up. It's hard. I know, but if you deal with your problems, then in the end you will be able to have relief.

3.

There will be moments in life when you will be scared about a possible outcome or about getting too close to a person and being hurt, but that's completely okay. Don't pretend that you aren't scared and just let it be. Everybody gets scared; it's part of this wonderful thing we call life. You just need to find a person to confide in about your feelings.

4.

It's part of what makes each and every one one of us unique. If we were all "normal," then life wouldn't be as adventurous.

5.

Having to be at work at 10:30 on a Saturday morning is the absolute worst. So cherish those Saturdays when you can sleep in and relax even if it’s just three hours. As we get older the responsibilities and priorities pile on, and Saturday will become the day we get everything we couldn't do during the week done.

Breakups are tough; Jess has the right idea. We all have that one movie that we have on repeat after a breakup for a day or two. It is a part of life, and it is how we cope with the sadness and try to move on from it.

You are going to run into people who for whatever reason just don't like you, but you have to be respectful of the differences and work with them on a daily basis. Don't change your style or who you are because someone doesn't like it. Be true to yourself, but also understand that sometimes other people just won't like you and you won't like others as well. The key to this is to stay on friendly terms.

Music makes a huge difference. It allows us to understand and express our emotions when we can't find the words ourselves. Sad? There's a song for that. Extremely cheerful? A song understands that feeling well. Music allows people to come together and be social. It allows people to talk about their insights and takes from a certain song and allows everybody to see different perspectives.

I enjoy shows that have a little bit of everything--humor, drama, sometimes serious aspects and situations actually connect to real 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.
