We've all been there at some point in our lives, but some of us are stuck in the indecisive style stage. This may have to do with the fact that I'm only 19 and still in the process of growing into my true self, but wow do I not know how I want to dress almost every day. I don't know if I'm just super versatile or having an identity crisis.

To put you in my shoes, every morning I have a mini panic attack. It only lasts about 2 seconds because I have an array of clothes to choose from, but a whole bunch of thoughts race through my head. One day I really want to look edgy, but other days I want to look like pink is my favorite color. Also, I never want to look too tomboyish or too girly. If I'm wearing a bunch of dark clothes I HAVE to wear a light colored pair of shoes. If I'm wearing a bunch of light colored clothes I need to wear a pair of shoes that's darker.

I'm also super scared of looking too dressy. If I have a dressy outfit on, then my shoes are gonna be sneakers because I can't walk around looking like I'm about to go on a hot date with my boyfriend. If I have a bummy outfit on, then I need to wear cute jewelry to dress it up a little so I look like I kind of care. All of my outfits need some kind of balance.

What I'm trying to get at here is that I really have to sense of style. I don't have one because I don't know what I want to look like every day. There are even outfits that I want to wear, but am too scared to. I don't believe there is anything wrong with not knowing what kind of style of clothing you want to wear, but it can definitely be a hassle when trying to get ready.

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.
