Raise Your Hand If Diet Coke is Your #1

Let me tell you about this sweet, sweet nectar that feels like it gives you life upon a single sip. Oh yes, I'm talking about Diet Coke. There are many, many Diet Coke addicts out in the world, and if you are unsure if your love of this fizzy drink has progressed into an addiction, take a read below and find out.


1. Your day cannot start until you have a Diet Coke.

2. You never just buy a single Diet Coke because who are you kidding? You are definitely going to want more than one.

3. Diet Coke feels like a friend at this point.

4. Just a single sip can turn your whole day around.


5. It's your go-to mixer, and you can probably be seen hanging out at a party with a Diet Coke in your hand rather than alcohol because Diet Coke is your person.


6. You consistently realize that it has been days since you have had water, but Diet Coke has water in it, right?

7. You are known for your Diet Coke addiction by your parents, dentist, professors, etc. Yeah, I know it's no secret.

8. Every time you go out to eat, all of your friends order water except for you and silently judge you for spending the extra $3.


9. People love to tell you how bad it is for you.


10. And you always respond the same way.

11. But, occasionally the "you're going to get cancer" comments get to you, and you try to give Diet Coke up.

12. However, by mid-day you are starting to feel weak and frail.


13. Life starts to feel like it's not worth living any more.


14. But, of course, you crack and mass text every single person you know demanding they personally deliver a Diet Coke to you.

15. And that first sip after hours of not having a Diet Coke, tastes like heaven.


And so the addiction continues, but it's fine because in your mind a Diet Coke addiction is like having an old friend who never leaves and gives your body the life it needs to continue on. So, crack open an ice cold Diet Coke and enjoy your sweet, sweet poison.

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.
