We're all busy. This is true. But below are a few things we should all spend a little more time doing. It just might be exactly what we needed.

  1. Sleeping. Obviously. 2. Reading. Reading is so underrated. Not only is it actually interesting and fun if you have a good book, but it’s also a good way to de-stress and better to do before bed than watching TV or scrolling through twitter.3.Doing yoga. Yoga is great and it’s not just for girls. Another great way to de-stress and work out at the same time. Two birds with one stone?4.Making healthy food. It will make you feel better and keep you healthy. Spending the extra 20 minutes/day making lunch/dinner instead of stopping at the dining hall or fast food restaurant can have dramatic effects on health later in life.5.Napping. Same as 1, but not at night time. Just needs to happen more often.(freestocks.com)
    6.Talking to parents or friends from home. They miss us. They deserve our time too. Even though days may be busy, we owe it to them to keep in touch.
    7. Volunteering. I know it's hard to find time even for ourselves sometimes, but there are always people who need help more than ourselves, and it may make you feel more centered and less stressed.
    8. Meditating/listening to music. Take some time out of the day to just chill and reflect.

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.
