Pinterest Runs My Life
Theresa Niemczyk

I wake up every day and check Pinterest for what I want to wear. My actual wardrobe is nothing like my cyber wardrobe but I make do with what I have. I trade in my designer cyber clothes for my cheap clothing store somewhat look-alikes.

I look at all the amazing newest trends of makeup with all the bright colors, sparkles, and glitter glamour. Then I put on my routine foundation, blush and mascara. Sometimes I mix things up by adding eye shadow, eyeliner, and lipstick. Overall my makeup does not take more than thirty minutes and more than likely it only takes about ten. Let’s be real if I had the time and skill I would do these very elaborate designs but I have neither so I call it good enough.

I look at all the amazing hair styles. My hair is really long and goes down pretty far on my back so I have plenty to work with. If I’m feeling really fun I take the two hours to curl my hair but it needs to be something special or I need to do something with my hands for a while. Most morning I wake up shake my hair and leave it to all its wild crazy curly waves. My hair that I affectional refer to as “The Lion’s Mane.” Sure it is not the beauty of that Pinterest has but it is the beauty of sleeping in a little longer rather than doing my hair.

Sometimes I get a little crazy and have leftovers for breakfast. It is not those beautiful artisanal food that Pinterest has to offer but it is more than likely box mac-n-cheese or freezer pizza which makes for an amazing breakfast. Sometimes n the weekend I will make waffles but they are freezer waffles and its usually 11 in the morning but that is as close to it gets for a fancy breakfast for me.

I make sure that I pick out a healthy snack that I have spent so much time picking out and making sure it will keep me full for the day because there is nothing worse being hungry at school. So I take my time putting my Poptart in my back pack in hopefully a place where it will not get smashed. Although it probably will get smashed and I am okay with that. I prefer to tear my food rather than bite into it. I read that on Pinterest that it could stain your teeth although I do not remember if Poptarts were on that list. I only tear the easy food though. You will not see me tearing a sandwich or burger but a dinner roll for sure.

I am not the kind of girl who plans her wedding on Pinterest for two reasons. One: I plan on not spending a ton of money on my wedding and would rather buy local or semi-local rather than buying online. Two: I have better things to do with my time on Pinterest like looking up cats that I will never own or workout plans I will never actually do.

I spend time looking up how to solve my acne and dry skin problems but untimely I spend my night washing off my makeup and showering. I do not want to take up too much time getting ready for bed because lying in bed before falling asleep is primetime to plan out my next day on Pinterest that I will more than likely not actually follow.

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.
