If you are or ever have been a picky eater you know how to navigate the menu to find something you can eat. You know your favorite foods and dishes, the ones that can do you no wrong and are always good. Additionally, you also know, beyond a shadow of a doubt, the foods and dishes you'll avoid at all costs. You've dealt with the difficulties of trying new foods and going to restaurants that are outside of your comfort zone. These are the things you know to be very true if you've ever categorized yourself as a picky eater.

1. Your order is always complicated

It always takes time to figure out the dishes you like. Even after choosing a dish on the menu, there are most likely one or more things you don't want. Mayo, aioli, tomatoes, onions, pickles, and the list goes on.

2. Anything called "the Classic" describes your food choices

The classic anything tends to be simple and easy. I've been to restaurants where a simple cheese pizza was called "The Classic". Classic pizza, sandwich, and pasta options are the best.

3. Your choices at a restaurant are always limited

You have foods and dishes you know you will like anywhere. But because you're picky, there aren't that many options that you'll like. You're lucky if a menu has more than two things you would order. Make sure to pick a dish you will like!

4. You have your go to, safe orders at every resturant

You know the restaurants that you love because they have dishes that cater to your pickiness. You know you can always find something you'll like at these restaurants and you are so thankful for them.

5. You always feel bad asking for so many changes

Because most of your orders become complicated with lots of changes, you feel bad for making your order so difficult. You always feel bad for your order being too long and confusing.

6. Its hard to find a place to agree on when deciding where to eat

You know the places that will have dishes you know you will like, which makes trying new places really scary. You have no clue what their menu will be like. This makes it difficult to decide on a place everyone would like.

7. Your friends start to know your orders because you always get the same thing

Because you have your go-to orders which you get all the time, your friends start to catch on and always can guess what you will order. Are they surprised when you order the same thing all the time? Nope!

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.
