15 Thoughts You Have at the Nail Salon

As women, we are regulars at our local nail salons. Even though each place has its own style, these are some of the thoughts we all have while we get spoiled for a minimum of an hour.


1. Why are you rushing me? I literally just walked in. Give me a minute to paint every single nail to see which color I like best.

2. Oh my gosh, I forgot to shave my legs. I am so sorry.

3. Can I just enjoy my pedicure? Please stop asking me questions that I don't know how to answer.

4. Mentally preparing yourself for when they remove the dead skin off your feet.

5. I can't help but think you are talking about me in front of my face. Sorry that English is the only language I understand.

6. But even if you're not talking about me, don't make it look like you are!

7. Why are you telling me my nail is broken? That's why I'm here.

8. I want my nails shaped square, but I know you're going to do what you want anyways.

9. As they're filing your nails and asking if you want anything else done today: No, sorry I told you that when I made my appointment and walked in the door.

10. Okay, they're about to do the first coat, but you have to pay beforehand. No tip on credit cards so I guess I should get it ready for later when I have to end up smudging my nails.

11. The first nail gets painted, but now that you have seen the color out of the bottle, you wish you had picked a different one.

12. Okay, the second coat is done and everything is better now. Guess you have to stick with it now.

13. Sitting at the drier feels like forever. But this massage takes away at least five seconds of how slow time is passing. Can I just leave already?

14. Your nails are finally dry, but you have to search the salon to find the lady that did your nails to give her a tip.

15. Finally, the best part: When every lady sings “goodbye" to you and you feel very important when making a dramatic exit.

Even through all of these struggles, nothing feels better than a fresh mani-pedi. Am I right?

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.
