I'll enjoy every square inch of sunshine I can get.

I am someone who is very particular about the physical environment that I am in. Whether I'm laying on the beach under the humid Florida sun, or laying on my couch in 68-degree air conditioning, I don't think I really have one exact answer to, "Would you rather be too hot or too cold?" This is a question that's asked a lot as the seasons change here and here out. Some people prefer to be scorching hot over blistering cold, whereas some prefer snow days than beach days. I for one, don't have a dead set preference. Here's why.

Like a lot of situations, I believe that there is good and bad in each. So much to where I truly cannot pick just one. As I lay in bed right now, I am very thankful that I sleep in, what some may call an igloo, air conditioning. There's nothing worse than sleeping in a hot room. I need to be cold with a bunch of blankets so that I'm extra comfy and therefore sleep like a BABY. Also preferably with a fan on, but whatever. I highly enjoy the cold. But only in certain situations.

Q: "Would you rather be too hot or too cold?"

A: When I sleep, too cold. Keep piling on the blankets. I sleep a million times better when it's colder.

But I get cold pretty easily when I'm not tucked into bed. I enjoy the heat to a certain extent. Not saying I love 100+ degree weather year round but I love the summer. When I'm going outside to enjoy the warm summer sun, I don't mind the heat. Some people would say, "how can you stay outside in this heat all day?" Well, let's see, I live in the midwest and we get three months a year where its summer time. Otherwise, we have inches of snow and sleet and misery. So, pretty easily, I'd say. I don't complain about the summer heat, because for someone who has lived in Illinois her entire life, I enjoy the heat. We don't get this as often as someone who lives in Nevada or Arizona. So I'll enjoy every square inch of sunshine I can get. When it comes to the weather, I definitely prefer summer over winter, that's for sure.

Q: "Would you rather be too hot or too cold?"

A: When I'm outside, too hot. I can always drink a cold beverage or jump in a pool!

When asked the age-old question, "would you rather be too hot or too cold," there are many mixed answers. "When it's cold you can just pile on more clothes, and when it's too hot there's only so much you can take off before you're just miserable." Or, "Being too cold is just miserable so I would rather just sweat". Everyone has their own preference, so ask yourself the timeless question, would you rather be too hot or too cold?

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.
