I'll Be Rocking Comfy Clothes To Class, Because Feeling Like A Million Bucks Is Better Than Looking Like It

While everyone else may look cute, and I admire that, it's just not going to happen for me.

Most days, you can catch me sporting a nice pair of Lulu's and a T-shirt or hoodie. I'm a woman of simple means and find that I don't have a desire to put in much thought when it comes to putting makeup on or dressing for class.

Here is my philosophy: if I didn't have to wake up at 5 a.m. three times a week, I would maybe consider spending a few extra minutes of thought into my outfit for the day.

Here's the reality: I need those extra three-plus minutes of sleep, and I don't care how much anyone might tell me otherwise.

However, on the off-chance you do catch me wearing anything but clothes you could work out in, that usually means one of three things:

1. I ran out of other clean clothes.

2. I have a presentation or a meeting immediately after class or during

If there's time to change, I make the effort to wear my comfy clothes and then change when necessary.

3. I'm trying to impress someone.

I don't always want to look like a slob.

But if I am being honest, the later of the three has only happened maybe a handful of times, so that variable is highly exclusive compared to the others. Thus, it really shouldn't count.

Back to my reasoning behind my daily clothing choices.

First, a comfortable me is someone who will get engrossed in lectures/videos/presentations compared to me that has to remember to keep her legs crossed because she is wearing a dress and doesn't want to flash anyone.

Second, I have a wider range of motion wearing comfortable clothes (flexibility is key, my friends). Finally, and the most logical of them all, I will sometimes go workout directly after class. Who would've thought? Whether that means I go to yoga, take our dogs for a walk, go for a run or whatever, my clothes are serving their active purpose at some point that day.

My clothing choices are intention... well for the most part, at least. I may not always look like a million bucks, but damn, I feel it.

Comfy clothes, live 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.
