My Fitbit Has Impacted My Life In A Great Way
kjexhibitions

I may be a little late with it but a month ago, I purchased a Fitbit Flex after wanting one for awhile. I must admit that I'm obsessed with it. If you don't already have one and are thinking of getting one, I say go for it! Maybe you can get one of the fancier ones but Fitbits are hands down one of the best fitness watches out. They are able to track your steps, sleep, calories burned, exercise and more! Ever since I've got my Fitbit, this is how my day usually goes. I'm sure other Fitbit users can relate.

I get really excited when I reach my step goal!

I always want to do a victory dance but I'm usually in public. The step goal is automatically set to 10,000 steps a day as recommended by the American Heart Association. You could always set a higher or lower goal if you wanted to. I do get really bummed when I stay home and am not able to reach my goal, though.

Checking the Fitbit app as soon as I wake up to see how long I slept.

I definitely have a terrible sleep pattern and Ftibit constantly reminds me. I should probably set a bedtime when school rolls back around. I do love it when I reach my sleep goal of eight hours and it is nice to see that the graph indicates the times you were awake or restless.

Getting emails about earning medals.

Who doesn't love getting rewarded?

Getting the email that your Fitbit battery is low.

How am I supposed to live? I really have to take off my Fitbit and charge it. Now my steps aren't being tracked. But no worries! A charge lasts a couple days! So this isn't an everyday thing.

Well, there you have it. A day in the life of a Fitbit user. Do I have any regrets about getting one? Nope!

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.

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

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.
