This election is driving me crazy. Between the scandals, emails, plagiarism and just about everything else, America needs a hero. If only Leslie Knope was real and could come save the day.

1. This entire election.

Honestly America, who are we? This election is like the blind leading the blind and choosing the lesser of the evil. Near impossible if you ask for my humble opinion. If Leslie doesn't understand it, there is no hope for any of us.

2. Those emails, though.

There is literal evidence that she is a criminal. But she is running for president. She even made a joke about it by saying how she joined Snapchat and loved that the messages disappeared by themselves. Sketchy Clinton, sketchy.

3. When Trump said he'd date his daughter.

This just ain't right.

4. When Clinton said that her husband has never lied to her.

I mean are you sure? Seems like there was at least ONE time...

5. When Trump made fun of a handicapped reporter.

Not cool Trump, at all. PR nightmare to the max and your team must hate you.

6. The fact that Clinton contradicts herself almost always.

There are over a dozen times where Clinton has contradicted herself during many of her speeches from the present and past. It is so much that all I can do is laugh.

7. When Trumps wife basically stole some of Michelle Obama's speech.

I get that it was just a little section of the speech that was plagiarized, but really? You couldn't even change it just a little. Like a few words probably would've been a little better.

This entire election is draining the life and years out of me. The only good thing that came out of this election is probably all the memes of all the candidates. I think we should all just write in Leslie Knope in the ballot. For the love of all that is sane and good.

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.
