Here is a long list of what I'm thankful for this year!

1. People who cut lines during holiday shopping, so I can learn patience.

2. People who go Black Friday Shopping at 5 A.M., so that I can shop from the comfort of my bed.

3. People who get in heated arguments that hold up the line, so that I can have some sort of entertainment while shopping for presents.

4. My family's mechanic, who fixed the heat in my car because I'd be a whiny baby without it.

5. Hand warmers because they are a lifesaver when you don't have working heat in your car.

6. My pretty okay mental health. 

I think my dad is more thankful for this so that he doesn't hear me have panic attacks at 3 A.M. anymore.

7. Food so that I can eat with or without being disturbed.

8. How long my hair actually grew within two and a half to three years.

9. My bed. 

Once I am in, there is no possible way I am getting out of my bed for ANYTHING.

10. That I'm finally done this stupid list.


Enough of the sweet stuff, I'm going to bring up a very heated debate. WHY DO PEOPLE SKIP THANKSGIVING? CHRISTMAS CAN SIT THEIR BUTTS DOWN AND LET THANKSGIVING SHINE.

What is so bad about Thanksgiving? Lots and lots of food, laughter, chit chat, spending quality time together, and passed out when I eat too much. Stores need to stop putting up Christmas decorations in the middle of the Halloween season.

Don't get me wrong, I love opening gifts. I feel really bad about missing family members during Christmas. My medication also gets pretty wonky during the winter months because the cold makes me feel more depressed.

In conclusion, I'm a very stressed out human being who has too much stuff on her chest and that I'm ready to just leave if people are debating about Thanksgiving. EAT YOUR TURKEY AND SHUT IT.

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.
