You gotta love the beach – the warm sand, the salty air, oh, and of course, the annoying people. While they all aren't annoying, there are a few types of people to look for when planning your next trip to the beach.

You really have to watch out for the college kids, usually loud and come in large groups, but the sand castle builders who think they are in the Olympics for the best sand castle are to be avoided at all cost. Here are a couple types of people to either keep close or to stay away from on the beach.

1. The College Kids

Straight outta school, you can't avoid this rambunctious group of kids.

2. The Drinkers

This is usually an older crowd celebrating their vacation and lack of responsibilities.

3. The Baby Wranglers

These parents are constantly trying to keep their children with them, not to be taken by the current.

4. The Athletes

These are the kids that constantly have to be doing something, and that usually means they are flinging sand everywhere or almost hitting you with whatever ball they are playing with.

5. The Campers

These are usually families that plan to be on the beach until sundown.

6. The Water Bums

The people who get the most tan or burnt because they refuse to come in for sunscreen, and if they do, it just rinses off.

7. The Lifeguards

These are the poor kids just trying to make money over the summer, but often have to deal with kids bugging them.

8. The Sand-Castlers

These are the worst, they just block your way from the water and they get pissed if you "take all the good shells."

9. The Models

Ahh, the ones who have good bodies and know it. It's obvious they worked hard for that bod.

10. The Newlyweds


These are the easiest to spot because they won't take their hands off of one another.

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.
