5 Signs You're A Neat Freak

Everyone knows that one person who can't stand when things in their rooms are moved around and not in their "specific place." When trying to figure out if you or anyone else in your life is considered a neat freak consider the following characteristics

1. Having a cleaning schedule

A lot of people plan times on when they are going to clean their rooms or cars, but having a specific time and day to clean can be a sign of being a neat freak.

2. Keeping things in the same place

when people think of people who are obsessed with being organized, they picture having things lined up perfectly on their desk or in a drawer which is true, but not always the case. People can be neat freaks even if things aren't perfectly lined up, they just need to have a specific home that they always need to be in.

3. Getting upset when things are moved

When someone is a freak with keeping their things organized, they won't be happy when their things are moved. All of their stuff has their specific place and if you borrow or move something, make sure it goes back in the same exact spot you got it from or else.

4. Trying to clean your friends' spaces

This can be seen easily in dorm rooms when your roommate is obsessed with things being clean. If your roommate tries to clean up your space or gives you advice on keeping your side clean, they most likely are just being a nice roommate, but they also could be hinting the fact that your side of the room isn't up to their "tidy" standards (even thought you may think it looks fine.

5. Avoiding messy places

Everyone knows that neat freaks hate messes, making them avoid messes at all costs (unless they are cleaning it). Getting trapped in messy places is the worst punishment any neat freak could imagine.

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.
