We all do things we are not proud of or things that make us feel as if we're dying inside. Maybe we really do die a little. Either way, here are 15 things I don't plan on repeating in this lifetime.

1.Ride a scooter down a hill steeper than Mount Everest.

It may have not really been that steep but there was blood and a road burned leg.

2.Tell someone you love them within 3 months of dating.

Lust is not love no matter how many kissy face emojis are exchanged.

3. Work retail for the holidays.

I don't know how many times I went to the back to check for things we don't have. Or maybe it was to cry. I cant remember.

4.Agree to a job in which I'm underpaid.

Time is money and I am valuable.

5.Not remind someone they owe me money or food.

I'm probably owed like $1,000 by now. Growing balls is hard. Especially when you're a girl.

6. Skip my vitamins.

When you skip your vitamins you get sick. Remember, I am valuable with no time to waste.

7. Skip meals in hope for a "better body".

Oh yeah, I'm sure those saltine crackers a delicious for lunch but I'm going to stick with this BBQ sandwich and baked potato. Maybe I'll throw in a light salad. BAM! Healthy.

8. The cinnamon challenge

I almost choked and died, but it was a good laugh.

9. The wasabi challenge.

It was hot, I cried, laughed at my tears, and then drank a gallon of water. I still can't feel my tongue sometimes.

10.Challenge frat stars to a drinking contest.

There was dancing, exploring, late night ocean dips, and then blank. I think it was a good time, just not a good idea.

11. Attempting to eat around the mold on your food.

We have all grabbed that loaf of bread that has just begun to mold and in dire need for that grilled cheese sandwich you pick the pieces that have hopefully stayed fresh. You probably needed to cut a few pieces off. But hey a grilled cheese will wait for no man to get a new loaf of bread!

12.Throw out harsh cuss words around the fam.

Some people don't understand my humor.

13. Go to highschool.

Been there, done that, not going back.

14. Try an inexperienced back flip on an unprotected trampoline.

There was a black eye, and the springs became my diaper. Don't ask, don't try.

15. Be rude to a customer service employee.

I never have and I never will. I have been in the biz long enough to see the consequences.

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.
