Types of People in a Car Accident

This one is for those of us who, at one time or another, had to bury our low insurance rate and watch it pass into the beyond. Maybe you've encountered one of these magnificent beasts, or maybe you are one.

1. The new driver (aka me this past Tuesday).


If one of these hits your car, don't worry about taking a shower that night because we're about to bathe you in a river of tears and apologies. Sirius-ly, this was me last week. It was traumatizing.

2. The one that won't call your insurance.

Wait, what?! These people actually exist?! Apparently, yes. Like a fine wine, they're usually a bit aged and will leave you delirious after the encounter. It's been five days and I'm still waiting to get in trouble with my insurance. A girl can hope.

3. Road rage.


Hi, is this my shrink? I called to say that I might've ended my sessions a bit impulsively *insert awkward laughter here.* What's that, you're free today? Great, I'm just outside your office! Delusional, psychopathic, murderous (OK, not always), no introduction is necessary for the road rage. If you're looking for a way to reconnect with your shrink, crash into one of these.

4. No remorse.

My sole belief in karma is rooted in the fervently, glorious hope that this person one day burns in Hell. Hit me, fine, I'll use your money to fix my car. One thing I can't, unfortunately, use your money for is to fix your attitude.

5. Alternate payment.

Now who hit who doesn't matter, because as soon as the police arrive you'll want to seek protection for a different kind of reason. Never filed for a restraining order? Say hello to another new, if not disturbing, experience in your life.

6. Well, I guess it was my fault.

Now now now, let's not jump the gun here. I hit you, you hit me, what does it even matter? In the end we're both going to die and decay anyway. This is when those witnesses, aka your hoodlum friends in passenger and backseat, really come in handy. No body, no crime is the motto this person lives by.

7. Hello there.

Have mercy, indeed. This is one accident everyone wants, don't even kid yourself. What happens after the accident may not be concrete, but at least there's a possibility of an after. A few tears here and there, and you could find yourself in the arms of a buff, comforting, Adonis, accident temporarily forgotten.

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.
