Happy Election Week Everyone

The Election Is Here
Quartz

Finally, the time we have all been waiting for or not waiting for. As the nation has come together to watch debates, rallies, and different news channels, there has been controversy and drama stirred up between both political parties. Social media has been taken over by the many expressed opinions and views by people and debates have even taken place amongst people.

Like other elections, people declare the side they are for and stand by it. It is time to come together and watch as the new President will be announced. As the nerves build up, nails are being bitten, and anxiety levels are shooting out the roof, the countdown begins. Once the new President is elected, people will either show their happiness and loyalty to that candidate or people will express their anger and come up with all the reasons as to why their candidate should have won. Although the drama will continue, Facebook might go back to normal soon, people might become friends again, bets will be won or lost, and America will have to adapt to the change of the new President. This is not an article to share who I am voting for or not voting for, much less to say that I hope we are all prepared for what is about to take place. I do, however, hope everyone is voting and are contributing to what they believe is right. It’s known that everyone thinks differently, although some may agree with one another, but the wait is over and the election is here. Happy election week everyone!

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.
