So, if you were anything like me as a child, you were probably running around the playground with your friends and pretending you were the Powerpuff Girls, right? Of course you were. You would also accidentally call them the Powderpuff Girls because 7-year-old you wasn’t all that bright. We can agree to disagree, but if you’re a decent human being, you would admit that this show was one of the best in cartoon history. It was the first show I watched that was all about girls with superpowers. It seemed so realistic to me; boys were mean and ate paste, and monkeys were always out to get you – story of my life. In honor of the series coming back to Cartoon Network this month, I thought I’d give them all little shout out in an article.

1. Girls can kick butt too!

Move over, Captain America and Iron Man; the girls are back!

See point number 5.

THANK. YOU.


And once again the day is saved thanks to the...

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.

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.
