A Special Shoutout To My Hair Extensions
Maddie Ruth

Dear Hair Extensions,

I am not ashamed of you. No one is born with hair that they love, that is why we color, cut and shape you in order to be satisfied with you. I was born with hair that doesn’t grow past my shoulders and on top of that, it is very thin. You changed that you brought light into my life and showed me how to fall in love with my hair again. Investing in you has been the best decision I have made. You make me feel beautiful and trendy and I wake up every morning feeling great. Everyone deserves hair like you. From the moment that you were sewed in I knew that it was love. Thank you for giving me confidence, no matter what people may say about you just know that you are not “fake” you're the realist. You make me feel naturally pretty and it is such a great feeling. Sometimes you are a little extra work and I have to be careful to make sure that you aren't showing but I wouldn’t go back to the old hair that I use to have. I wouldn't want it any other way. We are bound by a piece of thread (literally) and it is a lovely friendship.

So with that being said....

Self-confidence is such a hard thing to have sometimes; girls are constantly comparing themselves. Being comfortable with your body image is something that many people lack; this is why people do modifications to their bodies. If it makes YOU happy then that is all that really matters. Your happiness should always come first and you deserve to feel beautiful. Always remember that we all have flaws and you shouldn’t tear yourself up about it. If you’re unsatisfied with something then do something about it. That is why I chose to add more hair to my head, I am so happy with this decision and I don’t see myself not having extensions. Special thanks to my hairdresser you rock girl!

xoxo,

M

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.
