Thirty-Two Silly Things to be Thankful For
Bing

1. Starbucks

I don't really know what I would do without my trusty sidekick, the Green Tea Late. Sometimes accompanying me two times a day, iced or hot, it has blessed my tastebuds with a sweet comforting taste that helps me power through my day.

2. Squishy Pillows

Nothing is quite as great as that one perfect pillow. After years and years of wearing it down, you finally get it to the perfect balance between firm and flat. To bad it only lasts a short amount of time before it falls flat.

3. Clean Water

As silly as that sounds coming from an American, I am so appreciative for this resource that is limited around the world. I can wash my car, fill my hot tub, and drink right out of the sink without having to worry where my water has come from.

4. Silly Faces

Some small action can really brighten some situations, especially a goofy face towards a friend or from a munchkin.

5. Mac and Cheese

Oh so ooey-gooey, and ever so perfect, any pasta and cheese combo is a lifesaver on any day.

6. Fuzzy Socks

While some piggies go to the market, and some go to school, the happiest piggies spend time cuddle in these warm cozy socks.

7. Rain

Let's be honest, there hardly is anything bad about rain. The smell, the sound, and its beauty is honestly remarkable.

8. Victoria Secret

Whoever put in the work to make consistently comfortable underwear deserves a round of applause.

9. Health

I have had a cold lately, and nothing seem more relevant for being thankful for my health. It's a small thing we take for granted daily, but it is a total gamechanger.

10. Chicken Fried Steak

With creamy gravy and even better mashed potatoes... If only I could get my hands on some as good as my mom's.

11. Diversity

Growing up in a cookie-cutter town is something I am so thankful for, but moving across the country and being a part of something so much bigger than Gardnerville, NV is a truly amazing experience.

12. Sweat Pants

A gift sent straight fro heaven.. that's that.

13. Google

Who would've guessed we would have the power to have access to anything in the world with a click of a few buttons.

14. Peaches

Nothing is more delicious than a nice juicy peach in the summer.

15. Girls Scout Cookies

Thank the Lord for little girls who slave away trying to sell delicious sugary treats, even though it is detrimental to my wallet.

16. Democracy

With the election being over, I am blessed to have been apart of a country who has many freedom, like the right to vote for all races and genders.

17. Mac Cosmetics

Whoever took the time to make beautiful sparkling powders and bold lipsticks is an angel sent from my dreams. Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!

18. Education

After being in class with students who are not from the states, I am so blessed and thankful to be able to receive the education I am. As a woman, I am doing things other women couldn't even dream of. It's a blessing no matter the trails.

19. Pastel Colors

Maybe it's just a phase, but these light shades have been making my day a little more calm.

20. Sunshine

Sent from miles across the solar system, a kiss from the fireball that is the sun makes any day a little brighter (literally and figuratively).

21. Lake Tahoe

A beautiful crater of water in the mountains has blessed my family and friends for decades. Nothing is more beautiful, and I can't wait to come home to be reunited with its beauty.

22. G2 Pilot Pens

With many colors, nothing has made taking notes easier over the past

23. Mountains

Offering a timeless view, these geologic masterpieces are the background to our daily life; again, I can't wait to be reunited with Job's peak.

24. Crayons

With a multitude of colors, these waxy sticks have made any child happy since dinosaurs roamed the Earth. Let's be honest, mac-and-cheese yellow and periwinkle have brightened your day a time or two.

25. Uggs

Fluffy and comfy... need I say more?

26. Succulents

These little lively fellas will keep you company, just make sure they get enough sunlight.

27. Parks

Playgrounds, grass, and open space galore, nothing can relax you more than a nice picnic in one.

28. New York Skyline

Something beautiful and new to a West-coast-gal.

29. Old Movies

Oldies but goodies, any classic like Jaws or Ferris Buehler's Day Off, will be sure to knock your socks off again and again. Cuddle up and pop some corn for this movie night.

30. Hooded Sweatshirts

Something so simple keep you from getting the chills.

31. Sour Gummy Worms

A go-to snack for a sugar-addict girl.

32. Cats

These furry felines, regardless of size or color, make me one happy girl.

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.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

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.
