1. How to keep bees:

Bees are dying out so quickly that there is a petition to get them on the United States' endangered species list. I think it would be cool to learn how to keep them safe and off the endangered species list. Hopefully my attempts don't turn out like the guy above.

2. How to paint with watercolors:

Art is a beautiful thing. I can't think of a better way to show my appreciation to art and artists alike than to learn to paint. One day when I am rich I will pay all you wonderful artists, but for now I will learn to paint.

3. How to make candles:

Who doesn't love candles? I am a candle fanatic. I think it would be totally legit to be able to make my own candles with their own scents, colors, size, and fancy styles. Making candles would be a really cool skill!

4. How to code:

Coding could be a valuable skill in today's technological world and it would be very helpful just knowing the basics of how things like the internet work. Also, I'd like to be referred to as Hackerman when I learn to code, thanks.

5. How to bind books:

As a lover of books, I have often sat and wondered how books were bound before they were being mass produced. I have also wondered how I would ever get my beloved books fixed because in all honesty, I am not the nicest to them. Well, bookbinding was my answer and after some research I decided that I wanted to learn to bind books! It would be so cool to fix up old books for a library or museum!

6. How to become a TeaMaster:

Now, before you go shaking your head at me, tea mastery is a real thing. They have schools you can go to that teach you how to make tea from the actual tea leaves, how to mix them to make your own flavors, or teas to help with certain ailments!! I think that'd be a pretty cool gig.


These are just a few things I think would be cool to know how to do. I hope you find them neat too!!

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.
