Yes, I'm A Typical Coffee Shop Cliche

I'm unashamedly loco for hot coco.

Yes, I'm A Typical Coffee Shop Cliche

Have you ever been judged before in your life? Of course, you have! I'm not talking about being judged for what you wear or how old you are to do something. What I am talking about is being judged on what you order at a coffee shop.

Yes, the typical white girl judgment card. I love to see people's reactions when I tell them I want a hot chocolate when I go to Starbucks or Caribou. Yes, I am one of those white girls that order hot chocolate at a coffee shop and I am proud of it. Go ahead judge me all you want but I don't like the taste of coffee. I would rather get caffeine from a soda. Before you judge let me explain myself. Coffee to me has a bitter and strong taste for me. I like it with a flavored creamer in it, but I would rather drink the flavoring because I add so much it's a waste to get coffee.

Coffee shops are so versatile. I mean why else do they have hot chocolate on the menu. It's a hot drink that people love in the winter too. I feel like hot chocolate drinkers don't get enough credit. As soon as it gets warm its all about the coffee lovers. Trust me, if you're a coffee lover, I still like you.

OK, I like my hot chocolate simple. Just the way I am. I like hot chocolate just the way it is with whipped cream on top and if you ever want to make me happy the more whipped cream the better. I don't get all crazy and add marshmallows to it. That's a whole other story.

So, go ahead and judge me because I am as white as can be when it comes to ordering at a coffee shop. I am glad to appreciate the term "white girl."

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.
