Thoughts You Have While Waiting At The Airport

At some point in time, you find yourself stuck in the airport thinking at least one of these things.

Going to the airport for some is a wonderful experience but for others it's just an unfortunate period of time before going on vacation. Airports are filled with food and shops for your entertainment but you might not have the time you want to walk around unless you're like me and get stuck for hours on end in airports across the country. Here are a few feelings some might have while sitting in the building that sits between you and fun.

1. Woo! I'm getting on a plane!


Whether you are going to a fun destination or just back home, its always fun to fly rather than drive. It’s always an adventure that you make your own.

2. Why is it so cold?!

It could be 90 degrees outside but sitting in the airport you need a blanket and a sweatshirt?! Having my nose frozen is not in the plans for the day.

3. My flight is delayed…great!

Of course your flight gets delayed! Your flight is always late leaving when you fly so this is no surprise. What is happening that your flight crew couldn’t make it on time or the last flight was late getting in? I just don’t get it considering when a flight is late leaving a gate, it costs the airline tons of money!

4. Why is food so expensive?

Due to your flight being delayed, you decide to grab a snack or a meal depending on how long you’re going to be there. Walking around you see restaurants that you normally eat at home, and a burrito there is $8.00 at home, but at the airport its $13.00. Even if you want a candy bar, it's almost $3.00! Outrageous, I tell you.

5. Finally boarding!

After a two hour delay the gate attendant finally tells you the flight is going to start boarding, but for some odd reason you feel like you want to cry you're so excited. Getting on the plane you now have to find your seat, and you pray that you don’t get stuck next to a guy who smells.

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.
