The Witty Girl's Guide To Life
Emily Patton

Recently life has gotten hectic and stressful, and my planner looks like the Auburn Tigers’s playbook on game day. But what always makes my day is a snapchat I receive from one of my sorority sisters that is a quote of the day, and somehow everyday the quote is different but caters to my day ahead in some way or form. Here is a list of 30 quotes that will hopefully fit your day, week or even month as good as the quotes I daily receive fit my life.

  5. “Luxury to me is not about buying expensive things; it’s about living in a way where you appreciate things.” - Oscar De La Renta

And the great divide between the beautiful and the ugly will cease to be. Because we are all what we choose.” - Margaret Cho
  15. “The best piece of advice someone has ever given me was ‘do it scared.’ And no matter if you’re scared, just go ahead and do it anyway because you might as well do it scared, so it will get done and you will feel so much better if you step out of your comfort zone.”-Sherri Shepherd

  22. “Be easy on yourself. Have fun. Only hang around people that are positive and make you feel good. Anybody who doesn’t make you feel good, kick them to the curb.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

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.

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.
