In today's day and age, everyone has the subconscious idea of FOMO, or Fear of Missing Out. Sometimes though it is okay not to do anything, just lay in bed and watch Netflix all day, or as they say in "Parks and Rec," "Treat yo self." In the fast paced environment of our lives sometimes you just need to have a day to yourself.

Here some ways you can just have a day to yourself;

1. Lay in Bed and Watch Netflix

Sometimes you just need to lay down and watch mind numbing television, or finish that series that has been sitting on your recently watched list for months. So pop some popcorn, crack a drink, get your favorite fuzzy PJs on, and wrap up in your favorite blanket.

2. Head to the Mall

Everyone thinks you need to go to the mall with your best friends, but sometimes you need to go by yourself. You get to spend the time in the shops you want to, and don't have to wait for people in the shops you don't want to be in. It gives you a chance to relax and shop at your own pace.

3. Go get Your Nails Done

People always think they need to go get their nails done with others, but lets be honest you don't even sit next to each other and don't even talk them. So ditch the friends and go by yourself get a mani-pedi even! Even guys can get their nails done

4. As Dona and Tom Say "Treat Yo Self"

You have some saved up money, or any money in general? Take it and treat yo self. We always worry about the future and saving money for it, but we forget to sometimes spend money on ourselves and treat ourselves.

So no matter how faced paced our lives get and how much we get caught up in the lives of others. Just remember always make time for yourself.

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.
