Five ThingsTo Do Before You Die

We all have a bucket list, or have at least heard of them. Maybe you have been writing your own since you were little or maybe you have just started recently or maybe you haven't started one at all. The point is, you should start and you should have a bucket list. Type it, draw it, write it, make a poem of it. The things on this list are events. places, people that you want meet and visit in your life before you die. Some people complete their bucket lists with their friends and family, while others go at it alone. Take some time to think about the top five things on your bucket list.

1. Travel to new places.

Everyone dreams of traveling the world and that may not be possible for everyone. Pick a few places that you have dreamed of going to and go! Make these the best trips of your life and try new things while you are going around to new places. One idea is to throw a dart at a map and go whenever that dark takes you. This could give you a new perception on life and for things you have never seen before.

2. Spend holidays being happy.

Christmas, Easter, New Years, Halloween, any holiday of the year... The most important thing about them is to be happy. Be with good people and be in good places. Everyone hears about watching the ball drop in Times Square, most of us watch it on television, but everyone should try to experience being there in person once in their life.

3. Get married to the one you love.

Having the perfect wedding, a beautiful dress, delicious food and a great guest list can be every bride's dream. Having the person you love standing next to you making each day better than the last is what really makes that day perfect. Having your friends and family around you both on that special day is what matters. Being in love is a special thing, everyone should experience it at some point in their life. They say when you know you know, so don't rush things.

4. Start a family.

After getting married every couple has the discussion of kids. Kids play a huge role in starting a family and creating something bigger than yourselves. Raising kids and seeing how your family develops can be an amazing feeling. Your family are the people who will love you and cherish you for your whole life. They will be proud of you in your high moments and even in your lowest ones too. Family can be everything if you let it be.

5. Go on adventures.

Take the risks you may have never taken before, take chances that can change your life, and meet new people that can make you a better person. Do something crazy, out of your comfort zone, or an acitivity that you have always had a passion for. Adventures can be big or small as long as you are enjoying life and making the best of every day you have.

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.
