Most of the world is invested in the Olympic Games, whether as an athlete or spectator, however there are various degrees of dedication. There are die-hard fans who truly love the sport at play, there are fan-girls who are dedicated to specific athletes, there are patriotic citizens who want to see their country win the gold in every event, and then there are those who just watch for the fun of it. Yet regardless of your level of dedication, there are inevitable thoughts and feelings while watching the games. And while I cannot speak for the male population, here's Emma Stone to sum up those thoughts & feelings for the female Olympic watchers of the world.....


When you well up as Simone Biles sticks her floor routine and secures the gold for the U.S. women's gymnastics team

And your family begins to question your emotional stability

So you compose yourself and prepare for men's swimming

And after much anticipation..

Phelps enters the stadium looking like he has a fatal case of ring worm

but then le Clos takes off his warm-up uni and all is right in the world again

The race begins and Le Clos is in the lead

You can't stand to watch!

*Spots Phelps' baby*

AWWWW look at him in his little headphones. Hiiiiiii Wittle BABY

*Hears the announcer comment on Phelps' speed*

AHH WAIT I WASN'T PAYING ATTENTION !! Phelps is in the lead! Go Go Go GO PHELPS!

Phelps wins and le Clos places 4th

Time for the men's 4x200m relay...

And OMG it's Ryan Lochte! ...... or is it an oompa loompa

Will that spray tan wash off in the pool?

Dear Ryan Lochte,

Jk I still love you. ALOT. plz love me plz !


At this point you're upset that Lochte isn't acknowledging you through the TV screen and you are thinking "Come on NBC, lets switch back to a women's sport, I am dying here."


Great, now women's beach volleyball is on!

You take one look at the volleyball players .. annndd...


... there goes you're self esteem

Looks like its time to put away that pint of ice cream you've been devouring and go to sleep.

See ya never Rio Olympics 2k16. Gnight.

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.
