If you basically live at your job, you will understand these stages of tanning perfectly. You barely have time for yourself, let alone time to tan.

Stage one:

It's summertime now, you're still working basically every day. Hey, no big deal, you'll just get off work and head immediately to the nearest place to tan, catching those last few hours of sunlight. WRONG. You're exhausted when you get off work, the last thing you want to do is strip down to basically nothing and lay in the heat.

Stage two:

So, you have an off day coming up. Awesome, time to soak up the sun am I right?? You'll get out there in your cutest new swimmy, apply the minimum amount of sunscreen ( so you can get "extra tan"), listen to some tunes and scorch that skin all day! However, one of two hunts will happen. 1. You'll burn to a crisp, because of you're lack of tan. 2. You'll get the smallest amount of a tan ever. Not to mention, this was probably the only off day for the next few weeks, hope you enjoyed it.

Stage three:

Before you know it, it's already fall and any hope for a tan is lost. Football season is here and the cold months are among us. You still remain hopeful for next year and hold on to that small tan line you see underneath your bracelet. Don't worry, there is always next year! ( I'm sure you're used to saying that.)

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.
