To The Girl Who Is Clueless About Starting A Real Relationship
Alexa DeClue

First of all, you are aco-taco. You can't help what comes out of your mouth sometimes and you find yourself doing weird things before you can stop yourself, it's just your nature. So throw in trying to start talking to someone and you have yourself a right royal mess (like, there is no going back). Trying to sound intelligent to your crush, forget about it.

So that is just the beginning of your hardships when it comes to starting a relationship. Like maybe, they should make a class on how to function like a normal human being when someone starts talking to you. Like maybe, 'Dating For The Awkwardly Challenged'. This person must see some potential that I don't see in me for getting past the awkward phase (highly unlikely).

What is even worse is, you have no idea if someone is flirting with you or what. It either goes right over your head or you're trying to be like Sherlock Holmes, deciphering the text. You often turn to other people to weigh in and tell you what they can gather from the situation. Or the opposite scenario occurs, where you are starting to catch the feels for someone else and you are trying to flirt. And that person either doesn't pick up on your vibes or you are probably doing something wrong. Probably the latter, but what's new? The struggle is real when it comes to forming sentences to attract that one person.

So for anything to go anywhere, this person has got to be persistent. It's not that you are unobservant, you are just completely clueless. Like, boy, keep knocking on the door until the light turns on in my brain and finally tells me that you are interested in me. It's just that I am a little foreign to the world of relationships and flirting (I am sorry in advance). Trust me, it's just as frustrating for me as it is for you, as the person that is trying their hardest to catch my eye.

So to all the boys out there trying to catch a girls eye, keep trying. Because honestly, the girl is probably just clueless when it comes to relationships and she is aco-taco. One day, you will learn the flirting game and get in the relationship that you have been wanting to after lots and lots of texts.

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.
