Flamingo: The App

Have you ever gone out with all your friends, take pictures using one of their phones, and then they never send the pictures to you because they don't want to waste their phone battery?

Have you ever wanted to post your super artsy meals on Instagram, but don't want to be judged?

Have you ever taken a selfie that just isn't Snapchat story quality?

If you answered "no" to any of these questions, you're probably lying and need to download the app Flamingo. Flamingo is a new up-and-coming app designed for sharing pictures. All you need to do turn on the app and then take pictures. It's that simple. Pictures are streamed directly to the people you want. On top of being the easiest way to share your squad pictures, it is also like a super casual Snapchat story or Instagram feed.

Here's how it is described in the app store:

+ INSTANT - As soon as you take a photo outside of the app when your Flamingo is on, it will immediately show up in your selected friends’ feeds. Have your friends Flamingo to you as well so you can see what they’re up to!

+ PRIVATE - Only the friends you specifically choose for each Flamingo session can see the photos that you take and for the amount of time you select. At any time, you can change your settings AND you can tap “Stop” to end streaming until next time


+ FUN - Even when you’re not Flamingo’ing, you can draw on or add text to any photo that you or your friends shared. You can also reply with another photo when words won’t do. The more friends you have, the better the experience.

+ VIEW - See where you went during your broadcast, plus other share stats in a completely private real time map.

Download the app, add all your friends, and start streaming your pictures 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.

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.
