Summer is coming to end and you know what that means. Everyone's favorite activity. PACKING! Yup it's that time of the year where you have to start getting ready to go back to school. You talk about how excited you are to see all your friends and wear all your cute new clothes you bought over the summer. But none of that will happen if you don't pack. Nobody actually packs when they say are going to everyone waits till the last minute. I am definitely guilty of this.

This is how people actually get to packing;

1. You are laying and bed and you tell yourself that in 30 minutes you will start packing.

2. It's been over 30 minutes and you are still bed and you realize you never got up so you give yourself another 30 minutes and then you will really get out of bed this time.

3. Okay so now that you have given yourself an hour to prepare for packing you finally get out bed and start.

4. You take out your bags put them down open them up and say "Why can't I pay someone to do this?"

5. Now that you have begun; you start packing a few shirts, place them in the bag and call it a day.

6. It is now a week later from when you started packing and you realized that you are leaving for school in two days. So now you are overwhelmed and in panic mode since you waited till the last minute.

7. A week ago when you had all the time in the world you were folding your clothes and placing them neatly in your bags. Now that you have two days left you start having a panic attack and throw everything in as fast as you can.

8. Lastly once you finished freaking out and finished getting everything into your bags you realized wow this took me 30 minutes I should of done this a week ago.

After reading this if you haven't finished packing, GET UP AND FINISH NOW!

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.
