7 Thanksgiving Break Essentials To Remember

You know that feeling when you are driving home, and you are just far enough away that you cannot turn around, and then you forget those items you NEED.

That dang charger that fell underneath your bed.

I probably do not even need to say anything about this. We've all forgotten our one charger that barely works, but we don't want to get a new one because it works "fine." Don't forget your charger. Forget everything else. Don't forget your charger.

The only pillow you can sleep peacefully with.

Maybe this is just me, but I really love my pillow. It is the one that I can't fall asleep without. But it definitely is hard for me to remember my pillow when I go home because I usually make my bed and it is underneath my covers. Word of advice: don't forget your pillow or else it'll probably be hard to sleep.

Yes, James Corden, a hair dryer. 

For guys, this may not be the biggest deal, but for girls, y'all feel my pain. Hairdryers are so difficult to keep up with because they are so bulky. I always think, "Do I really need this?" yes. yes Delaney, you absolutely do.

The things we can't even see without. Contacts.

I actually don't wear contacts, but the amount of times I have heard someone say on a break, "I forgot my contacts," is a number I can't even count.

Fluffy Slippers 

You will never know you need them, until they are gone and forgotten for good. It is a rough life being at home and cold and not having your slippers.

That one fan that keeps you just cold enough

I have this fan that I stole from my boyfriend and absolutely take with me everywhere I go. You can bet if I am sleeping somewhere that is not in my room, my fan is coming with me. But on those rough nights when I forget it, I am baking in my own body heat.

That thing your mom told you to not forget, don't forget it. 

We all know this is true. We know.

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.
