If You're Sassy And You Know It, Clap Your Hands

I'm pretty sure we get it from our moms.

"Can you cut the attitude?"

"Take it down a few notches, will ya?"

"Watch your tone with me, young lady."

These are some of the phrases that perpetually sassy girls are doomed to hear for the rest of eternity. Personally, I'm pretty sure it's not my fault that I was born this way. Aren't certain personality traits genetically influenced? (Thanks, Ma). Ultimately, the life of a sassy girl is rough. We truly are hassled more than we deserve. Here are a few things every sassy girl will relate to...

Your poor eyeballs. Your poor, poor eyeballs.

Every female, sassy or not, knows that sometimes your eyeballs work out more than any of your other body parts. After the 8,674th eye roll, you start feeling like they might get stuck, but you can't help it. People can be really dumb. You can't do anything about it, so you just sigh and roll those big green peepers. Same, girl. Same.

Conversations (formal and casual) can be a nightmare.

I'm pretty sure I can name several instances within even the last three days when I was trying to hold a conversation with someone, and I saw them visibly recoil after I said something. We're sorry, guys. It just happens. Sassy girls truly have no filter and will say whatever comes to mind, regardless of whether it makes any sense or not. So, we end up stuttering angrily and tripping over our words, which makes us more angry. And, thus, the cycle continues. Go figure, am I right?

You're a 24/7 savage.

When you're sassy, sometimes you just get a little vindictive. Oh, is that a picture of your ex and his new girlfriend? Double tap. You thought of something that's probably rated PG-13? You'll tweet it, and not think twice about it. See something that you don't agree with? You'll let that person know. You don't really mean bad by it. You just don't really care what other people think, either.

Sudden spurts of self-confidence.

All sassy girls just have those days. You wake up and put a cute outfit on. Your contour and brows are on fleek. So, you flaunt it. Ain't no shame in your sassy game, my friend. Work it. At the end of the day, the only person you truly have to be content with is yourself. So, love your body and slay that selfie game, girlfriend.

You're secretly super sensitive.

I sure say, "Fight me," a lot for a girl who is 5'3" and cries when people raise their voices at her. It's just something that happens. I think that we truly are some of the most sincere, loving girls on the inside. It just takes the right people and the right circumstances to coax it out of us. It's like Marilyn Monroe once said, "If you can't handle me at my worst, then you sure as hell don't deserve me at my best." Preach, fam.

It's worth getting to know us.

Once you break down our walls, we're total sweethearts. We will go out of our way to help people. We can be as smart, kind, and fun-loving as everyone else. We just prefer being a little sassier on our way there.

xx.

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.

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

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.
