Sometimes you get bored, or sometimes you start to question everything. One day my roommate, our friend, and I were sitting in our apartment talking and someone said, "You have to think outside the box."

Then one of our responses were, "what's wrong with inside the box?" That got us thinking and made up questions on some very random things. Here are some of our random questions that might get you thinking of some yourself. As they say; question everything.

1. Why did the brain get to name itself?

2. Why do we drive on the parkway and park in the driveway?

3. Why do we have to tickle Elmo?

4. How does one get a child on their shoulder?

5. How many licks does it take to get to the center of a Tootsie Pop?

6. Why is it when something is good, it's the bee's knees? Why does it have to be their knees?

7. Why would a fish be out of water?

8. How did you understand the little birdie?

9. What does abracadara even mean?

10. How did the bug get snug in the rug? How do you know he's snug?

11. Was sliced bread really that great?

12. Why was it easy as pie? Pie isn't easy to make.

13. Why is the cat wearing a hat?

14. Isn't everything on the record?

15. How do you give a rat's ass?

16. How is there an apple in your eye?

17. Where's the chill pill?

18. How does one put on a thinking cap?

19. Will I turn into a square if I'm not there?

20. How can you measure the cost of your arm and leg?

21. I don't think dogs ever bark at the wrong tree, so why do we?

22. Cats have nine lives, how do you kill one with curiosity then?

23. How did you get an elephant to fit inside a room?

24. Aren't our heads already above our heels (in height)?

25. How in the heck can you fit inside a pickle?

26. Why are you on cloud nine? Why not cloud one?

27. Why does it rain cats and dogs? Why not birds, fish, or really anything else?

28. If we are already talking, how do we talk the talk?

29. What are we throwing this towel into?

30. Ducklings are adorable, so who called them ugly?

31. Why can't you teach an old dog new tricks? I taught mine new tricks and she's 10 years old.

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.
