Loving myself(ie) one picture at a time.

A Selfie a Day Keeps The Insecurities Away

Continuing with the Selfie a Day articles, I have a new load of pictures of myself. They all capture different parts of me that I think are beautiful, and even if I don't think they're beautiful altogether, there's a little something that I can find beautiful about each and every photo in this listicle.

Day 1: I was in the car with a couple of really good friends, I was the one driving, so it was their job to pick where we would eat. I really liked how I did my makeup that day; my lipstick came out looking really cute. I never really wear hats often, but it was cold that day, so I wore one. I think it looks good in this selfie.

Day 2: Thanksgiving! Hopefully, no one tells my brother that this picture of him is on the internet. This picture caused a fight between us that then led to my ginger ale being spilled all over my (really cute) dress. I had some really pretty lipstick on that night, but my aunt made an insane amount of food so it all rubbed away when I started eating.

Day 3: Not the biggest fan of this picture. I think my eyes look weird, like they're two different sizes. Although, I love my eye color. I inherited the color from my father. I also think my skin looks pretty good in this picture, I didn't have many breakouts that day, which is always a good thing! I wish I could have gotten a picture of the back of my head, I did a dutch braid and it looked A M A Z I N G!

Day 4: I was waiting on my couch with my mom for my best friend to get back from New Jersey. I love my best friend a lot, I always feel the most like myself when I'm around Courtney. No one will ever come into my life that I love more than her. She helps me feel pretty, it's a great feeling.

Day 5: I had just gotten back to SUNY New Paltz, with my best friend/ roomie. I love it when I wear glitter in the corner of my eyes. I feel like it's a good amount of shine in my life. I think it really brings out the color of my eyes, and they really look great.

Day 6: Loving life, and myself, on this beautiful day, on this beautiful campus of SUNY New Paltz. I love my school because it has one of the most scenic campuses. I don't know if I'll ever find another place as beautiful as here. I love my hair in this picture. Right now it's red, but you can really only see the real color in the sunlight.

Day 7: This is the day I've felt the prettiest so far. I'm wearing my favorite lipstick, again. I'm wearing my favorite blue eyeliner, and of course glitter under my eyes!! I'm finally wearing my hair wavy, which my roommate is always excited about. I truly love myself today.

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.
