True Life: I'm Addicted To Making Lists

We all have that one friend, the one who can't do anything without making a list. Whether its a to do list, a day planning list, or a shopping list... your "list making friend" probably has one made. I personally know I am that one friend who needs to make weekly lists. I love my lists, and these are the reasons why people like me are addicting to list making:

1. Lists relieve so much stress.

Your anxiety seems to go away after making one.

2. Lists make you feel organized and complete.

You have everything written down that you need to do, so you don't have to worry about forgetting something.

3. You would rather read in bullets and numbers.

Forget the paragraphs.

4. College is hard, you need your lists.

Trying to balance school, activities and work is hard in college. You need your lists to keep your sanity.

5. Lists can be made for anything.

The possibilities are endless.

6. Daily and weekly lists are necessary.

It's a true statement.

7. You have your favorite planner and pen for list making.

You won't leave for class without these two things.

8. Every note in your phone is a list.

If you are out and you don't have your planner, the notepad in your phone becomes the only place acceptable to make your lists.

9. Crossing things off your list makes you feel accomplished.

There's no greater feeling than satisfaction.

10. If there's a list, there's a way.

You can do anything with your lists.

11. You feel like you have your life together.

You're not that hot mess you were ten minutes ago before making your list. You have it together and there's no better feeling.

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.
