I’ve always been someone who cares what others think. "Will they judge me for this?" "Are other people doing this too?" "Is this acceptable?" These questions pop up in my mind as I go about my daily life. Thankfully, I've recognized my inclination to "conform" and have learned how to fight it. I've learned how to be myself -- my unapologetic self.

You see, there will always be someone who disproves of your actions and choices. Always. That is why I challenge you to stop thinking what others think and just be YOU!

I challenge you to share this article (optional), post #5embarassingfacts about yourself and then challenge a friend to do the same!

Here are my #5embarassingfacts :

1. I went through a weird Nacho Libre phase at age 13. I even owned the mask.

2. This was, of course, following my weird Indiana Jones phase at age 12. I had an Indiana Jones themed party. And yes, I had the hat.

3. I shamelessly know all the lyrics to "Nothing Suits Me Like a Suit" from "How I Met Your Mother."

4. And pretty much any song off of "SpongeBob Squarepants" (A Grill is Not a Home" is to this day the most hauntingly beautiful melody to grace my ears).

5. Some of my days start with weights, yoga and a green protein smoothie; others start with me wiping my makeup off from under my eyes and Chick-Fil-A. Life is perfectly imperfect. But that's what makes it fun. :-)

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.
