A New Hobby for Crime Show Lovers Like Myself

I know one of the most popular themes of TV shows these days is crime. I have seen all of Law & Order SVU, Criminal Minds, Dexter, Blue Bloods, and much, much more. You name it, I've binged it. But now, after finishing what's on Netflix and catching up to real time on cable, what do I do?

Recently I have been spending my TV time on YouTube, watching "vloggers" like Emma Chamberlain, David Dobrik, Olivia Jade, Tana Mongeau, and many more like this. While going through these strings of videos, I came across a girl named Kendall Rae.

Kendall Rae's YouTube page includes a lot of personal stories, which is what we look for in these YouTube stars. But, she also takes a very big interest in non-fiction crime. She does segments including "true crime," where she talks about interesting cases, "found," where she talks about people who have been missing for a long time and they are reunited with their family, and "where is…," where she raises awareness for cases where kids have gone missing and still have yet to be found.

Each video is about twenty to thirty minutes long, so about half of a crime show on Netflix. And, every story is real, which makes it more interesting in my opinion. After watching one of Kendall Rae's videos, I go research the cases and what happened in court (if the case made it this far) to study real-life examples and learn more about my potential future career.

Kendall Rae tells the stories in a very organized, in-depth manner, making it very easy to understand and pay attention to. She uses vocabulary that everyone will understand, not only crime fanatics or people who have been studying crime for long periods of time. The videos are extremely entertaining and informative, and I applaud Kendall for this.

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.
