A Letter To The Shy Girls: Told By A Shy GIrl

Dear Shy Girls,

I know school isn't what you look forward to because of how many projects there are. You would rather do all of the work than present it to the class of people who are not relevant to you. Making friends is hard because you don't talk as much has you should. You're in your own bubble, but you don't mind because life is simpler like that. Keeping your head down so you don't get called on in class. You pretend to know the material so you don't have to ask questioned.

High school is the time to get over the shyness you have. Being in college and being shy is a bad way to find out what you need. It's a time in your life where finding friends is going to help you be okay with not being home. You start to find out who you really are. You are going to ask questions and feel uncomfortable at times and will have to stand up in front of people that you have to clue about.

Finding a job is going to be hard, but you'll get over it. The obstacles in life will better yourself and prepare you for what is to come. Find a loud guy that compliments your style. Learn from him. He will help you socially.

Lastly, be yourself. Don't be fake. You never were in high school so don't be now. You'll find your family here. Don't risk losing them. Try something new that you never thought you would ever do. Let loose, don't be so uptight.

Sincerely,

A fellow shy girl

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.
