11 Ways To Spot A "Type A" From Miles Away
claudiamegbailey.files.wordpress.com

Welcome to the daily life of someone with a Type A personality. The recipe for a typical day includes: the dire need to strive for perfection while boarding of the "struggle bus" when attempting to “take a chill pill,” or, in other words, “be less of a spaz.” These are all things that anyone who identifies with the Type A personality experiences regularly. It’s hard not to spot these qualities, however, I will attempt to put a clear depiction to this recipe for the ultimate try hard, as a self proclaimed Type A myself. I have to poke a little bit of fun at myself for this sometime, right? So, here it goes. Starting with the most obvious images, I present to you, the telltale signs of a Type A coming your way.

1. This person is walking fast.

Type A’s: They know exactly where they are going at all times, who they are going to see, and when they need to be there. It’s all written down in their planner.

2. Speaking of planners… They have fully detailed ones.

And they keep them close at all times. They are their bibles and forgetting things is their biggest fear.

3. They also have another place to store their schedule.

What? Why? Well, some use sticky notes, their phones, or just their heads, but (surprise!) making sure they don’t miss something they need to do is constantly at the top of their list of priorities so the planner isn’t quite enough.

4. Their outfits are on point.

Things don’t just match by default. Not at the level that these people’s outfits do. They put thought into everything so you better bet that there were meticulous decisions made the night before the perfect outfit’s debut.

5. That brings us to an important point about preparation.

These people spend forever working on even the smallest necessities. Every task at hand is equally as important to them and must be given maximum effort.

6. Therefore, they are very busy.


7. And as if being busy doing necessary tasks isn’t good enough, these people tend to overbook themselves with many different obligations in the first place.


And they have to be prepared for everything because there is no time to stop at home.^^^

8. But that’s okay because they will get it all done…somehow.


9. While internally screaming of stress in the

midst of trying to look put together.

10. And chugging along for as long as it takes for their job to get done.


11. But feeling the feels of finishing a task with more joy than anyone else

Because when they finally hit the bed after a long day of schedule balancing acts, they are on top of the entire world.

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.
