6 A.M. - BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP!

6:01 A.M. - If I just pretend to be dead, will I be able to miss work today?

6:02 A.M. - BEEEP BEEEP!

6:03 A.M. - You win this one alarm.

6:05 A.M. - Alright, teeth brushed, makeup, do I want to try a new look today?

6:08 A.M. - That looks HORRIBLE, why do I ever think to attempt wings? Ah, Alexis used my last makeup wipe, great.

6:10 A.M. - That catastrophe is over. Clothes need to go on body.

6:15 A.M. - Should I just accept my hair is always going to be a mess?

6:25 A.M. - Uber says the ride is coming, but there is no driver. Am I going to be late for work again? Why does Uber play with my heart this way?

6:28 A.M. - WHAT IF THE UBER NEVER COMES AND THEY HATE ME THERE? Oh, wait there we go, the guy is 19 minutes away, coolio.

6:29 A.M. - Food? I'm thinking food. Or do I bring it with me? Or do I get something from the vending machine? SO MANY QUESTIONS.

6:31 A.M. - Did I put deodorant on?

6:32 A.M. - Now I did.

6:35 A.M. - Now to sit and stare at the wall. My favorite pastime. Do you think they would make a competitive sport out of it? Usually, when I'm tired, wall staring is pretty much what I do in order to wake up in the morning. It's great, especially because our wall paper has this flower pattern. But it isn't even, so pretty much, you spend like 20 minutes trying to figure out the pattern.

6:48 A.M. - Ah, Uber is outside.

6:49 A.M. - Hello, how are you today? Good good. Oh, we're listening to Christian Rock today? Okay cool, I'm just going to tap on my phone for the entire duration of this ride.

6:50 A.M. - Hmm, I know that Jimmy is sound asleep right now. Let me mass text him.

6:51 A.M. - "Good morning cutie, what if Cthulhu is really just one of the giant squid that people started to spot while in the deep sea?"

6:52 A.M. - "What if we're really in the Matrix, but they made that movie so that people would think it is fiction, thus stopping people from staying woke?"

7:15 A.M. - Ah traffic, love it. So many people just mindlessly driving to work. Oh wait, I'm one of them.

7:20 A.M. - Okay, this is absolutely the worst. Bumper to bumper, where's the bridge, ah I just want some coffee in my system, why is that so hard to ask for? Is it Friday yet? Oh, wait no it's Monday, man I am beat.

7:24 A.M. - THE BEN FRANKLIN BRIDGE IS SCENIC. I DON'T CARE WHAT PEOPLE SAY. YOU CAN SEE ALL THE PHILLY SKYSCRAPERS IN THE DISTANCE, IT'S ACTUALLY REALLY PRETTY.

7:34 A.M. - Thank you very much, have a nice day! Maybe if I get hit by one of the trailers, I can go home early.

7:35 A.M. - Alright, time to just quickly clock in, no big deal. *FINGER SCAN FAILED* Damn it.

7:37 A.M. - Good morning, everyone!

7:38 A.M. - C O F F E E!

7:39 A.M. - I need this to kick in like right now. OH WAIT, MY STREAKS!

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

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.
