List Of 10 Things I'll Never Do Again

I am very familiar with learning how some of my choices aren't the best, the hard way.

I tend to be very unlucky and manage to make not the best decisions. Below is a list of things I've personally done and if you have the common sense that I lack sometimes, you won't make the same mistakes that I've made.

1. Drive my car to another state while it has issues

On fourth of July this past year, I decided last minute to drive to California to meet up with my friend, Courtney. I knew my front bumper dragged a bit due to me always running on top on curbs, but little did I know that it was more severe than expected. Being the dumb teenager I was, I decided to push my cars limits and drive it all the way to California with my bumper dragging. Whoops, sorry mom.

2. Spend multiple hours at an outside bar in only a swim suit

Since I am Spaniard, people tend to think that I tan very easily. As Donal Trump would say, "Wrong." I tend to forget actually how easy I burn. I went to an outside bar and spent countless hours there. When I came back to my hotel room, My chest had been burned to the pattern of my swim suit. Some would call that art, but I called it miserable.

3. Drink a whole bottle of moscato during girls night

Girls nights are literally the best nights. They happen very often in my life and one time I clearly didn't realize that I downed a whole bottle of pink moscato. Last thing I remembered was making top ramen. Rest is a blur. Fruity drink, yes. Good idea, NO.

4. Make a Tinder

Tinder became very popular, very quickly. I made one as a joke and that's all it was. I hated the aspect of judging someone based off of looks and talking to each other through social media. Connections are never formed that way.

5. Run through campus wearing Uggs while it's snowing

During the first snow fall here in Denver, I didn't know what to expect. I wore Ugg boots are hoped for the best. I didn't think it would snow THAT hard. All my friends were in the North building and asked me to meet them there. Luckily, I was all the way across campus. Seriously. I started walking backwards because the snow was hitting me hard in the face. When I realized that idea wasn't the smartest, I turned around and started running. I ended up slipping a falling to my knees. How embarrassing.

6. Cry after a spray tan

During my pageant days, I would get spray tans multiple times throughout the month. One time I was being over dramatic (the usual) over something I can't even remember, and started crying. Once I was through with my dramatic episode, I looked in the mirror and realized my spray tan had streaks running from my cheek to my chest. Honestly not my best look.

7. Use vodka instead of beer in beer pong

On my birthday this year, I managed to keep my composure all day while celebrating. Right before my friends and I left for Beta Nightclub, we decided to play a nice, friendly game of beer pong. When we noticed that we ran out of beer, Grey Goose was our only option....lol. I'm not finishing this paragraph because we all know exactly what happened...

8. Work retail

I worked retail for about two and a half weeks. That's it. While working retail, I realized how boring it was and how I hated standing on my feet with nothing to do. There really isn't much more to it. Also, I was forced to dress up everyday and look nice which is something I also dislike. I prefer a uniform, or scrubs.

9. Store my crickets in a cage with holes big enough for them to crawl out

I have to buy large amounts of crickets at once to feed my Bearded Dragon, Spike. Typically I'll purchase around 65 at a time. I have two separate cages to hold them in since one isn't big enough. Long story short, I had to tape up little random wholes that were bigger than average. My roommate and I slowly started finding crickets around the house before I taped the holes. It was funny and not so funny at the same time. No one likes getting ready to take a nice relaxing shower, and then finding a cricket crawling in the tub.

10. Order Postmates while tired

If you don't know what Postmates is, it's a food delivery app that delivers food from pretty much wherever you want. Delivery fees are usually double ( or more) than your order. I pick and choose wisely when I use the app specifically for that reason. I ordered it after a long morning and ended up fall asleep. I lost out on $25 bucks and never received the burger I was craving.

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.
