Being a tall girl has all the perks: being able to reach the top shelves, not having to worry about being tall enough to ride rollercoasters, the list goes on. But with every good there is always a bad, one of the worst things about being tall is all the questions you get about being tall.

1. No I don't play basketball

Or volleyball. Or tennis. I don't have to be an athlete just because I'm taller than half of the guys in the world, okay?

2. Yes, I still wear heels.

And no, I don't care that these shoes make me six feet tall, either.

3. Before you even ask, the weather is no different up here.

End of story. So annoying.

4. Please don't ask me how tall I am.

I don't ask you how much you weigh, do I?

5. I know I need to be in back of the group picture.

Literally have been in the back since kindergarten. Some things never change.

6. No, I will not move my seat up any more.

I'm in the dashboard already with my knees up to my chin, you're the one that had the unfortunate luck of sitting behind me. And don't even ask me to sit in the back seat.

7. It really doesn't matter how tall my boyfriend is.

Tall people can have relationships with people of any height.

8. Yes, I understand that I'm tall.

Please stop acting like that's something I don't know. Please.

9. No, I really don't wish I was shorter.

I freakin love being tall, thank you.

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.
