A Dozen Signs You Are A Typical Younger Sibling
The Odyssey

Well, here it is everyone. The list you've all been waiting for. If you are a younger sibling all 12 of these are something that you will be able to relate to. Even if you're not a younger sibling, I'm sure these will give you a good laugh...

1. You're used to jokes being made about you being adopted, but there is always that little voice in the back of your mind which makes you question the truth.

2. You're consistently getting caught taking your siblings clothes.

3. All of your baby pictures show you dressed in ridiculous outfits as a result of your older sibling convincing you that all the "cool kids" were dressing that way.

4. You have lightening-fast reflexes as a result of all the random pillow fights and punch-buggie fights, which still happen even well into your adulthood!

5. Your grades have pretty much always been higher than your older siblings', and you have a more dedicated work-ethic as a result of more pressure and higher expectations from your parents and/or guardian.


6. All of the weird (and totally not realistic) mystical creatures and myths you believed in as a kid were because your older sibling did a heck of a job convincing you they were real with statistics and a full works cited page.

7. You know if you ever needed to beat up someone, you'd have your older sibling standing behind you defending you and ready to help you no matter what.

8. When you need a late night venting session, you know exactly who to call, and it's not Ghost Busters.

9. You answer to a medley of different names like your sibling's name, your pet's name and even sometimes inanimate objects.

10. You've heard many stories about you being ridiculously cute before a time when you were old enough to consciously control your actions or behavior.

11. When you finally enter in "Who Wants to be a Millionaire" you know without a doubt who you're going to call when you get to "phone-a-friend."

12. No matter what amount of friends you have or who comes in and out of your life, your sibling is your friend for life even if they don't always say or act like it.

Shout out to all those fabulous ladies and gents who are younger siblings!

As always, stay beautiful and keep reading....

Your gal pal,

xoxo

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.
