5 Things Tomboys Know All Too Well

So what being "girly" isn't your forte. Yeah you like to play sports, video games, you like the outdoors and baggy clothes, but who care! You're nothing like the girls you grew up with in high school, no makeup, no expensive clothes, no purse you do your own thing. That's because you are a tomboy and there are in fact five things Tomboys know too well.

1. T-shirts are your best friend.

Most girls wear nice clothes with pretty floral designs on them, full of bright colors and cute designs. Not you my friend. You like black T-shirts. "Didn't you wear that yesterday?" No. No you didn't you just seem to own clothes that all look the same. Black. Brown. Navy.

2. Sneakers.

Unlike most girls all you wear are your sneakers. You don't have time to pick out nice sandals, heels, or flats that everyone wears so sneakers it is! Black ones of course that match your shirt!

3. Video games.

Your guy friends do not expect you to be so good at video games. You know a lot about Smash Brothers and know when what game is coming out next. "Did you buy the new fire emblem game?!" No. You already finished it.

4. Friend-zone.

No matter how hard you try guys will always look at you like you're one of the "bros." Its because you are a tomboy so they treat you like one. When you do have feelings for someone you really aren't sure how to act. So you're put in the friend-zone. Oh well at least you still have a video game and sports partner.

5. Dress up.


There's nothing more that you hate then parties that require formal attire. You cant wear sneakers or a t-shirt, and you must wear a dress. The feeling of exposing your legs is disgusting to you. You miss your sweatpants so much. Oh well at least they make black dresses.

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.
