Don't Waste Your Tears Over Your Broken Phone, It's Probably Slow And Outdated Anyway

When my dad got me a new Samsung Galaxy Note 8, I instantly fell in love with it and had completely tossed away my broken Samsung Galaxy Note 3.

Have you ever cracked the screen of your most precious phone? Well, I did.

It was such a bitter experience. When I cracked the screen of my Samsung Galaxy Note 3, I was so sad because I broke my favorite phone. I really loved that phone. But my mom kept pestering me to buy a new phone and that I shouldn't be so sad over my broken Samsung Galaxy Note 3 at all. I didn't get it when she told me. I just kept crying and kept telling myself getting a new phone will not be the same as my old phone.

But boy, was I wrong. When my dad got me a new Samsung Galaxy Note 8, I instantly fell in love with it and had completely tossed away my broken Samsung Galaxy Note 3. Here are three reasons why.

1. Unlike my Samsung Galaxy Note 3, the screen is a lot bigger and the phone even has a longer stylus pen!

Because I like to draw so much, I have installed drawing apps on my phone and made use of my phone. If you are an artist like me who likes to draw and wants to spend less money, having a Samsung Galaxy Note 8 is a great substitute for a bamboo tablet.

2. The Samsung Galaxy Note 8 has more space than the Samsung Galaxy Note 3

I am able to download as many apps as I want. That means I can download Twitter, Instagram, Tumblr, Pinterest, Facebook, DeviantArt, YouTube, and a whole lot more! As I go to my email app, my email app does not have any problem syncing and receiving emails. When I had the Samsung Galaxy Note 3, I had to delete a lot of apps along with some photos and files in order for my email app to have space to receive emails.

3. The Samsung Galaxy Note 8 takes great, high-quality photos!

Samsung Galaxy Note 8 has a camera! It has so many settings you can use to get the perfect photo of your family and friends and even selfies! One setting that I really like is called "Live Focus" because you can adjust the blur of the background and make the people captured in the photo in great focus. You can also edit the pictures with "photo editor pro" to enhance the photo by adjusting color and brightness, cropping, and even adding stickers and cool effects!


The lesson I learned from this experience is simply this: When your phone is broken, this is a call to get a new phone!

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.
