10.  Toblerone Fun Size

i.makeagif.com

Per Fun Size bar: 66 calories, 3.6 g fat (1 g saturated), 7.4 g sugar

The little triangle treat that makes you feel fancy. These may not be as impressive as the giant ones you can find at the airport, but they're still fun to nibble at.

9. Hershey’s Kisses

Per 3 pieces: 67 calories, 4 g fat (2.4 g saturated), 7.7 g sugar

MWAH. Perfect. Just a little bit. And you get three whole kisses!!

8. Nestle Crunch Fun Size

media.giphy.com

Per Fun Size bar: 60 calories, 3 g fat (2 g saturated), 7 g sugar

Just that little bit of fake chocolatey goodness to get you through the day.

7. Kit Kat Snack Size

Per Fun Size bar: 70 calories, 3.6 g fat (2.3 g saturated), 7 g sugar

It's like two bars for the sweet, crunchy caloric-price of one.

6. York Peppermint Pattie Snack Size

media.giphy.com

Per Snack Size patty: 60 calories, 1.25 g fat (.75 g saturated), 11 g sugar

They're basically giant, less creamy Junior Mints, so you can eat one instead of feeling guilty about downing an entire box.

5. Nerds Fun Size

thumbs.gfycat.com

Per Fun Size pack: 50 calories, 0 g fat, 12 g sugar

The little box of joy that functions both as a tasty treat and a method of mocking your friends, these little guys are just all around entertaining.

4. Tootsie Pop

Per pop: 60 calories, 0 g fat, 10 g sugar

How many licks does it take to get to the center of a Tootsie Pop? Well, apparently about 364, but you can be the judge of it.

3. Smarties Candy Rolls

thumbs.gfycat.com

Per roll: 25 calories, 0 g fat, 6 g sugar

I'm personally incredibly biased toward these little suckers, but they're honestly great since you feel satisfied after just one little roll of them (and you can enjoy them slowly or all at once).

2. Pixy Stix

i.imgur.com

Per straw: 9 calories, 0 g fat, 2.1 g sugar

Ah yes, the original crack-in-a-tube. Sour, sweet, and just the right amount of tang, it'll definitely kick your craving in the balls.

1. Jelly Belly Jelly Beans Mini Pack

media1.tenor.com

Per pack: 35 calories, 0 g fat, 7 g sugar

Although these may seem very plain jane in comparison to the other candy on this list, they are objectively the healthiest (and I really cannot imagine wanting to sit down and eat a whole bowl of these -- just the one small pack is perfect for me, thank you). There's a multitude of flavors that leave you guessing and wanting a couple more, but then that black licorice one comes along...and ugh...you're good with that whole "candy business" for a while...

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

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.
