"Go Kill Yourself" -Anonymous

So, many of you know about the hottest new social trend right now called Sarahah. For anyone who doesn't know what this site is, it's a site where you create an account for yourself to receive "constructive criticism". People are able to go on there and write things about yourself anonymously. The fact that people in college are using this is honestly kind of sad. You're in your twenties and you still need someone to tell you things for you to feel good about yourself.

Why do we care so much about what other people think of us? That shouldn't be important. We don't need someone to tell us we're attractive or for someone else to tell us that we are good at something. This site is honestly one of the dumbest things I have seen in my life. It's really sad how people are depending on other people to make themselves feel good about who they are as a person, or what they look like.

Moving on to the main reason why Sarahah upsets me though, is that it's a great way to cyber bully someone. Although I have not heard of any suicides from this site, it should still be taken down. You can go on there and tell someone to kill themselves and they will never know who said it. You could call someone ugly or say they should've never been born and the person will never know who it was. Personally, I wouldn't want to know who it was. Overall, I think this site is wrong and can turn into something very deadly eventually if it's not taken down soon.

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.
