The shower is a sacred place. It is the land of thinking, standing, and (sometimes) waking up. The shower is one of my favorite places because I get a lot accomplished in there. Somethings are normal, but others are secret things no one admits to really doing. Here are some things everyone does in the show, whether they want to admit it or not.

1. Sing, and I mean SING.

It's the safe place to belt out the song you love to pretend you are a famous singer. You can pretend that you are actually singing credibly and that it sounds good. Hey, at least your pets appreciate it as they stand outside your shower.

2. Think about all the things you have to do.

You go through your mental checklist on all the things you have to do for the day or the next day. It's a time where I can mentally plan my day and not freak out (or freak out but in private).

3. Rehash or go over an argument but with better points on your side.

"UGH! I wish I had said this point or rephrased this." I always have mental arguments in the shower with the shower wall. I plan everything word for word, even my hand motions. I also plan papers, speeches, or rehearse lines in the shower. I seem to remember things well when I'm naked and warm.

4. Dance.

When I have my music playing in the shower, I can't help but dance. You can totally pretend you are shooting a music video with a shower scene. I feel comfortable to be sexy in there and I take full advantage of my dance time.

5. Lay down or relax for an obscene amount of time, effectively using up all the hot water.

I get so tired in the shower, especially because I'm a night shower-er. I usually just plop down sometime in the shower's span and lay there relaxing and basically falling asleep. I only get up when the water starts to get cold and even then, I'll take a few more minutes of quiet, me time.

6. Shower hair flipping.

I don't know what it is about flipping my hair around when it's wet. I just totally feel myself (not in that way perverts) and love flipping one of my best features around in sexy fashion.

7. Shower sex.

This is a no go because it sounds great in theory but in practice...not so much, or so I've been told. I've never done it, but I've been strongly advised to NOT participate.

8. Peeing in the shower.

I mean...come on. We all have done it, whether as kids or as lazy adults who don't want to track water all over the place. I just admit it and let it go. We all accept showering peeing here.

These are all the things one could do in the shower, so if you aren't singing and dancing in your very own music video while in the shower, then are you really even alive?

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.
