First dates are the worst. You're super excited and can't wait to be taken out by someone other than your grandma, but you'd also rather stab yourself with a fork then have to shave your legs and act like a lady tonight. Whether you're a flirty extrovert like Lorelai, or reserved and goal-oriented like Rory, these are the thoughts that go through your mind when you're on a first date:

I feel enormous.. I probably shouldn't have eaten 4 slices of pizza earlier. Well whatever, he might as well know the fat truth from the beginning. Alright, I can't look too slutty, but I can't look too churchy. Crap, is a dress too much for this restaurant? No, over dressed is always better than under dressed. Oh my God is that his car out front already??

Okay, have an open mind. He's probably really nice! That one tagged Facebook photo from 2009 is somewhat unflattering but I can look past that. Okay, open the car door, smile and say hi. Cool, you're in. Oh wait I like his outfit! Yes, definitely - I'm so glad I said yes to this date.

He seems nervous. Why is he driving with both hands on the steering wheel like that? Is he tense? Why are we talking about the weather? This was an awful idea. I'm so pissed I said yes to this date. Ugh, whatever, it's free dinner at least. I'll be home in a few hours and I'll just never answer his texts again.

This restaurant seems nice. I really hope I don't see anyone I know in here though. Did he really just pull my chair out for me? K. In love.

I cannot do this whole "fake nice" thing much longer. If he's not weird and cynical like me, this is not going to work. Hello, start being an asshole already and let's make this fun!


I can't believe he's still talking about how he "would have made the NFL" if he "didn't tear his ACL". I'm so impressed I forgot to clap. I need another glass of wine.

This is amazing - he's laughing at everything I'm saying. He's so into me. He's totally in love and wants to marry me. I'm so much better than his ex, it's like, not even a comparison!


Do I like him? Like, enough to go out with him again? Ugh, idk. I never know what I want. I don't have time for a boyfriend. But, he better call me tomorrow.

I don't think he bought that lie about having to go home to babysit. I just could not go back to his house after the first date! Is he crazy? Who does he think I am? Besides, I am super busy tonight. Lots of important Netflix binging to do.

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.
