I was recently up rather late and decided to post a "Reply Snap" to my Snapchat story. I wanted to know what U.S. state people think should run the world. It was the Saturday night before classes, so I trusted that many of my friends were either buzzed or at least on some crackhead energy. Still, I only expected a handful of responses. Much to my surprise, over 50 people replied!

Here are the responses:

1. Alabama: 0

No surprise here.

2. Alaska: 0

3. Arizona: 1

Something about the folks being granola.

4. Arkansas: 0

5. California: 6

Nothing wrong with wanting a progressive, tree-hugging world!

6. Colorado: 4

I have never been to Colorado but it must make one heck of an impression because I only know one person that lives there!

7. Connecticut: 1

8. Delaware: 0

9. Florida: 7

It is worth noting that many of these people are simply interested in the chaos that would ensue. However, one person mentioned that since Florida has such a large older population, they may bring a lot of wisdom to the table.

10. Georgia: 0

11. Hawaii: 3

12. Idaho: 2

13. Illinois: 2

14. Indiana: 0

15. Iowa: 0

16. Kansas: 1

17. Kentucky: 0

18. Louisiana: 0

19. Maine: 4

20. Maryland: 0

21. Massachusetts: 2

22. Michigan: 0

23. Minnesota: 1

24. Mississippi: 0

25. Missouri: 0

26. Montana: 0

27. Nebraska: 0

28. Nevada: 0

29. New Hampshire: 0

30. New Jersey: 0

31. New Mexico: 0

32. New York: 4

33. North Carolina: 0

34. North Dakota: 1

35. Ohio: 7

Disclaimer: a large chunk of my friends live in Ohio and they have definitely drank the Kool-Aid!

36. Oklahoma: 0

37. Oregon: 2

38. Pennsylvania: 2

39. Rhode Island: 1

40. South Carolina: 0

41. South Dakota: 0

42. Tennessee: 1

43. Texas: 4

44. Utah: 0

45. Vermont: 2

I, personally, would choose Vermont. When I think of Vermont I think of wokeness, granola, and overall just good vibes. Though I have never actually been to Vermont, I hear excellent things.

46. Virginia: 0

47. Washington: 2

48. West Virginia: 0

49. Wisconsin: 1

50. Wyoming: 0

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.
