The Met has to be one of my all time favorite museums. It's so big I still haven't seen all of it. I've only been twice, but I had fallen in love with it the first time I went. Everyone has their favorite exhibits. These are my top five:

1) European Sculpture and Decorative Arts

I was that weird kid throughout school that was so deeply interested in Greek and Roman mythology. I even took a mythology class my senior year of high school. I loved it and I still do, so when I first saw this exhibit I was so excited with all the sculptures of the mythology. That is why this one makes my list.

2) Greek and Roman Art

Now, just like in the European sculptures, this exhibit was so amazing to me! I loved seeing all the different art and styles from Greek and Roman culture. It was just so amazing and fun for me.

3) Egyptian Art

This one is amazing because this is an actual tomb, and how many people can say they have seen an Egyptian tomb? Okay, maybe everyone who travels, and or has been to the Met; but still it's really cool! As you go deeper into the exhibit you also get to see the different sarcophaguses and jewelry worn by the ancient Egyptians.

4) Arms and Armor

This exhibit just makes me feel like a little girl who wished for her knight in shining armor. Looking at all of the knights and swords was so cool, I just felt transported to a different time period.


5 Modern and Contemporary Art

I am not the type of person that gets all art. Trust there is a lot of modern art I just don't understand. It is intriguing just to look at--all the different colors, shapes, and pictures. You can't help but just look at some of it and just ask what it means or what is the point. But that is kind why I like this exhibit; because it makes me think and makes me wonder instead of just looking at it and moving on.

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.
