13 Stages Of Being A Bridesmaid As Told By 'Friends' And 'New Girl'

Spring of 2017 has been busy for many reasons this year for me, but part of that reason is because I've been asked to stand by the side of, not one, but two beautiful brides this year! But, hey, that's two times I can eat cake and look beautiful right? Win-win.


1. When your best friend asks you to be her maid-of-honor


2. When you get that professional makeup and hair done and have on your dress and just feel magical and like a Disney princess


3. When it's only 2 p.m. & you're not even the bride but you're the one who's stressing out

4. When you have some moments of panic because there's issues with your bridesmaid dress


5. When the bride is on the verge of a mental breakdown but she swears she's good. Yeah, go get her a margarita, stat!

6. Slaying the "Who Know's the Bride Best" game at the bridal shower


7. The Bachelorette party


8. When you're starving but you don't wanna ruin your makeup before pictures...

9. When you see how much everything costs and you gotta start really saving up


10. When you're at the reception and it's time to start dancing

11. Watching the bride opening gifts from you like



12. After months of preparation, and a whole day filled with wedding stuff and the Big Day is over with... it's been real, but your body peaces out before you do.


13. Seeing it all come together just as they dreamed and you see your girl finally get to marry the love of her life #UglyCry

Being a bridesmaid is fun, no doubt, but prepare yourself for all the emotions while you get ready to parttttyyyy!

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

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.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

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.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

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.
