What It's Really Like To Be In An All-Girls Group Chat

A girl's GM contains more secrets than the entire U.S. government, more fashion advice than every issue of Vogue combined, more support and inspiration than any Pinterest board ever could, and more roasts than a Donald Trump debate, and this is only the beginning. A female group text is a wonder in and of itself, and every girl knows that in order to achieve this magical realm of advice, sass, and support, it requires a combination of a few special types of members. But as we know, every all-girl friend group has their own group chat. These group chats hold everyone's daily activities, secrets, L's of the week, selfies and a multitude of things we can't even really explain.

These are the GM's where it all goes down. The roasting, the analyzing of texts, the concocting a response, the outfit approval, the planning on who's bring the marg-mix and who's bringing the tequila. These are the GM's that make all the other GM's worth it.

Whether it's your friends you've had since high school, the friends you made in college in separate parts of the country/world but still accessible via group chat or your work friends. These GM's allow you to tell your whole squad the latest gossip without having to retell the same story or answer the same questions a billion times.

The Squad GM is the original GM, the text message answer to the conference call, it's beautiful (unless you're the one being roasted then it's painful).

They will make you smile, be angry, and always make you laugh, not just because of the random, but needed GIF wars or random roast sessions, but because you know that your people are there for you, for better or for worse. Whether you think you want to die from your stubbies hangover, explain why you think dogs are better than cats, or simply text to look like you have multiple friends, group messages will always be there for you. So the next time you’re added to a GM titled “The Girls Room” don’t roll your eyes. Get ready for the late night texts and early morning pings. Congratulations, you have just been entered into the group message circus.

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.
