After you graduate, you will realize that there are things that are happening to you that wouldn't have in high school. Whether it's physical, mental, or emotional, it doesn't take a scientist to figure out that change is definitely happening or has happened.

If you're still in high school, just be aware that these things will, I repeat, WILL happen to you, so savor your young lives now while you can. Here are the side effects of graduating high school.

1. You will fall asleep earlier and earlier.

2. You'll come down with early signs of the grandma fever.

3. Your style of clothes will change from dressing up in jeans almost everyday to basically whatever you roll out of bed with.

4. Life will hit you. Hard and all at once.

5. You will find yourself declining invites to hang out with words like, "I can't, I have work" or "I have so much homework".

6. You will have to do a few things called taxes and paying bills.

7. You will have to keep up with all of your appointments and (get ready for this one) MAKE your own appointments.



8. You will barely go to the gym or exercise in general.

In fact, it's been so long that you forget what that looks like.

9. Eating salads and drinking water will become more of a chore.

10. You no longer will put heat to your hair.

It's just too much work. Instead, you will use dry-shampoo or hair-ties and call it a day.

11. Naps will turn into brief 10 to 20-minute naps IF you're lucky enough.

12. You will be diagnosed with the urge to cry at the most random and inconvenient times.

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.
