How To Know That You're Planner Obsessed

Being planner obsessed is definitely an addiction. Us, planner obsessed people just can't help that we like to be organized. We want to write all of the upcoming events and things that we have to do down so we don't forget. Part of the reason we like planners is so that we can have something to do when we're bored. Of course, that's not the only reason. We like our planners for a whole lot more than just the fact to write things down. Many people that use planners are some of the most forgetful people. If you're anything like me, I mainly have a planner because I forget everything. As a college student, I sometimes wonder how people survive without one. I have to write everything down in order to remind myself or remember what I have to do. It also keeps me on track to make sure that I get everything done that I need to do.

But how do you know if you're planner obsessed? Well here are some key things that planner obsessed people do:

1) When asked if you're free you say, "Let me take a look at my planner and I'll let you know".

2) You color coordinate everything inside (This means specific colors for specific things)

3) You never forget what you have to do

4) You have a monogram on the front of your planner

5) You are constantly carrying it around with you wherever you go

6) You are also carrying around all of your colored pens and markers

7) You ask people to repeat dates so that you can put them in your planner

8) When you're bored, you find things to write down in your planner

9) You write things down just so that you can cross them off (even if you have already done them)

10) You have to write every single event down just to fill up the lines

11) If you don't have enough of one color, you find things to write in another color

12) You get a weird satisfaction when you cross things off

13) You love to highlight "important things"

14) You also love to use sticky notes

15) Don't forget about how you write in bigger and different fonts to make "fun things" look even more fun

16) You fill out both the calendar and the weekly schedule with the same events (double reminder)

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.
