I'd Rather Hang Out With My Parents Instead Of Partying

Yes I hangout with my parents instead of partying, and yes I actually enjoy it.

I'd Rather Hang Out With My Parents Instead Of Partying
Renata Lima

Crazy right? A 20 year old girl that would actually rather spend time with her parents then go out and party or spend her time with her friends, mind blowing.

It's not that I don't like hanging out with my friends because I do, but my friends and I all enjoy very different things. Personally my idea of a good time is sitting on the couch with some food and watching a very good, drama filled movie. My friends are also all away at college and life gets lonely when there's only a few of your friends left in town.

Personally, my parents are a hoot (the use of the word really emphasizes that I do hang out with my parents a lot). On Fridays, my parents and I sit at the dinner table and just talk about all the stuff that happened during that week. We tell jokes, and we laugh until we cry. If it was a rough week we just sit and talk about how we could've handle things better. My dad frankly is the funniest man I know. My friends often times come over just to see him, and my mom finds my dad really obnoxious 90% of the time even though she really loves him.

I personally have the most fun when I'm with my parents. We go to concerts together, we go to dinner together almost every weekend, we go to the mall, we do everything you do with your friends together, and yes that includes getting drunk together too. Honestly. when I don't do these things with them I really do miss them. Now I know what you're wondering, why do you spend so much time with you 50 year old parents, you can find people your own age that are like them, that's true. I do know people like them and I do enjoy their company, but the truth is my parents aren't going to live forever. They're still young and healthy, and I pretty sure they're going to live to embarrass me until they're 120 but one day they won't be around or maybe one day I won't live close enough to them to see them all the time so I'll miss all the time I wasted trying to not spend time with them.

Yes just like you sometimes I don't want to be around my parents, and just like you sometimes they annoy me with their excessive rules that frankly are border line insane. Yes, sometimes I want to go buckwild and just be a 20 year old girl but most of the time I'm okay with my parents being my best friends and spending my whole weekend with them. But don't tell them that because it'll go to their heads.

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.
