A Look Inside The Woman's Mind: As Told By "New Girl"
theodysseyonline

Ever wondered what exactly goes on in the minds of women? Or if you are a woman, have you ever wondered if other women have the same thoughts, emotions, and experiences as you? Well, wonder no more. While a woman's mind can be an enigma of sorts, and though we may feel simple yet complex, what it all really boils down to is that we're humans who have basic needs. And wants. And cravings. And emotions. And well, I think you get the picture. And what better way to get a closer look into the mind of a woman than through the eyes of Jessica Day -- a strong, independent, emotional, awkward woman who is just trying to figure out life. Just like the rest of us. On that note, here are fourteen sneak peeks into what it's really like to think like a woman.

1. We love food.

Sad? We eat. Happy? We eat. Sitting in class? We eat.

2. Sometimes we just want to be alone and indulge in overrated music.

Taylor Swift, Adele, Katy Perry, Justin Bieber, the works.

3. We have a lot of feelings about a lot of things.

Sometimes we have an explosion of feelings. We can't help it.

4. We know what we like and what we don't.

Although we can be indecisive at times, deep down we know what we want. And more than that, we know what we don't want.

5. We just want to be accepted for who we are.

This is one of the biggest struggles that women face. We don't have to be understood, but we do want to be fully accepted for who we truly are. No exceptions. No ifs, ands, or buts.

6. We overthink. A lot. Which causes us to sometimes make questionable decisions.

One bad decision can ruin our entire day if we let it.

7. Though some women don't appreciate the term "crazy", we all have a crazy side and sometimes it rears its ugly head.

It's something we're born with. And something we try with all our might to keep under control.

8. We love to sing and dance and act silly when we're home alone. Or in public. To each her own.

It lifts our spirits and reminds us that life really is wonderful and worth living. And you might earn brownie points for singing/dancing along.

9. Sometimes we get upset for no reason.

Whether it's because we're on our period, we have a lot on our plate, or someone in our life has done us wrong, when we get upset, we just want to be comforted and cuddled. Or left alone. It really depends on the girl.

10. We don't like to admit it, but we do check out attractive guys.

We notice. And we talk about you to our girlfriends.

11. Sometimes we can be a little snappy.

Some girls just get under each other's skin. Which can make us get a little quick-tempered.

12. We regret stupid things that probably won't matter in five years.

Why did I get a caramel mocha instead of a pumpkin spice latte? Why did I wear this shirt today? Why did I say that dumb thing to that guy in 7th grade?

13. We know we can't escape our problems. But we try anyway.

We're girls. We have a lot of problems. Sometimes they're just too much to handle, so we avoid them for as long as possible. But eventually we know we have to face them.

14. Even though we don't always openly admit it, we know what we deserve.


And though it may take us awhile to realize it, we will not settle for less than the best.

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.
