The Top 5 Worst Situations To Find Yourself In

We all experience very uncomfortable situations throughout our days, some more than others. Here are a few popular situations most of us can sadly admit to being a part of.

1. Sneezing while driving

Although this is probably one of the most terrifying things that could happen to anyone, it can be so awkward. In the duration of just a split second, you have to manage to keep everything together, driving-wise, and successfully let out your sneeze without crashing your car. I'd say the keeping it together part is the most awkward part since you're just sitting there gripping onto the steering wheel for dear life so that you don't turn unexpectedly while trying to keep your foot from slamming on the gas during your sneeze.

2. Running with a backpack

First of all, if you're running with a backpack on, you're most likely running to a bus that's waiting for you or you're trying to cross the street quickly so that the cars that are waiting on you can get by. So it's safe to say that this is already a very embarrassing moment and everyone is probably watching you. Next comes the awkward part. With your full, heavy backpack on, you attempt to run. For some unknown reason, this is an extremely difficult and awkward thing to do.

3. Getting your socks wet

If you're human, you probably hate this feeling. Most people don't carry around an extra pair of socks with them, so when your socks get wet from a puddle you didn't see or an ice cube that someone left on the floor to melt, what are you supposed to do?!

4. When your stomach makes loud noises in a quiet place

You're hungry in class, and of course, your stomach has to make the loudest noises immediately when everyone has quieted down to listen to the lecture of the day. You try your best to prevent it from being too loud but it inevitably becomes a distraction to not only you, but your classmates as well.

5. Saying goodbye to someone that's about to walk the same direction as you

You've said your goodbyes and now it's time to go your separate ways, but you end up not going separate ways. You both know you're walking in the same direction. In your head, you're both wondering if you should say another goodbye after you actually part ways or laugh it off. No one says anything... awkward.

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.
