You know you killed the game when you owned each of these things as a teen...

Five Ways To Know You Killed The Middle School Game

5 ways to know you killed the middle school game:

1. You insisted on having rainbow braces:

 

Because one or two colors weren’t enough, you had your orthodontist put the whole rainbow in your mouth. There was no better feeling than having both friends and strangers come up to you complimenting your new look. If that feeling wasn’t similar to cloud 9, then what is?

 

2. You lived in your Juicy Couture sweatsuits:

 

Growing up, you felt the need to own not only one, but multiple juicy sweatsuits. Because owning a black one wasn’t enough, you had your parents buy you an array of baby blue, hot pink, lime green and neon yellow sweatsuits (as well as juicy pocketbooks and charm bracelets to obviously complete the look.)

3. You also loved to rep Ed Hardy: 

 

Honestly, you’re probably unsure of what you were thinking when you wore some clothes designed by Christian Audigier, but you do know that you felt cool at the time. You owned and wore so many of his products that you were basically a walking advertisement.

 

4. Oh, and don’t forgot the colored Uggs: 

 

Because owning a pair with the buttons on the side wasn’t enough. You couldn’t have been more obnoxious wearing a pink, purple and blue pair in sixth grade.

 

Last but not least-

 

5. Your butter sweatshirts were some of your most prized possessions: 

 

Looking back on this now, you feel so bad for convincing your mom to spend $100 on a sweatshirt that had studs on the sleeves and weird sayings on the back. We all knew we would never wear them after we graduated anyways.

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.
