For all the uninformed Potterheads out there, there's a new app available in the App Store called "Harry Potter: Hogwarts Mystery." It's an RPG app where you get to navigate your way through your years at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, solving mysteries and going to classes, making friends all over the place. There's a lot going on, but here are the best and worst parts of "Hogwarts Mystery."

1. YOU get to got to HOGWARTS!

For the first time ever, YOU get to go to Hogwarts. You can do to class and make friends and you don't have to imagine it! It's real! You can get sorted into your house, fight for the House Cup and gain skills through different activities.

2. Your prefect kinda sucks

Even if you're earning more House Points than ANYONE, your prefect will constantly say that you're not doing enough and you're letting your house down.

3. You get to meet the characters you know and love

From Bill Weasley to Albus Dumbledore, you get to meet your favorite professors and students who attended Hogwarts before Harry, Ron, and Hermione.

4. ENERGY!!!

Sometimes you'll be in the middle of a class or a quest, trying to get enough stars to finish each activity but then you RUN OUT OF ENERGY! It's so frustrating and it takes four minutes to gain them back.

5. You get to explore the sights

If you're like me and have always wanted to wander around Hogwarts, then definitely get this app. You can eat in the Great Hall, walk through the Quidditch pitch, and go to Potions in the dungeon.

Even with the negatives, if you're patient, the game is lots of fun. For more information or to download, visit the game's site!

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.
