When I Grow Up, I Want To Be Everything

What do you want to be when you grow up? What exactly are you going to do with that major?

When I was seven, I knew exactly what I wanted to do. I was going to be a part-time soccer player, part-time artist. In fourth grade I wanted to be a fourth grade teacher-- because I just really loved the fourth grade. At fourteen I wanted to be a doctor, and at seventeen I wanted to own my own business.

But now my game plan has changed. I’m just going to do it all. The possibilities are endless when you don’t have to choose.

1. Tour guide for the National Spy Museum.

2. Waitress at a French coffee shop.

3. Extra in a movie.

4. Restaurant critic who focuses only on desserts.

5. Member of the Secret Service.

6. B&B owner out in the countryside.

7. The person who names storms.

8. Professional scrapbooker.

9. Florist who only sells sunflowers.

10. Chocolatier.

11. Adam Levine’s tour manager.

12. Receptionist at a five-star hotel.

13. Stay-at-home dog mom.

14. Ranger at a National Park.

15. Traveling weatherman.

16. A beekeeper.

17. Coffee mug designer.

18. Zamboni driver.

19. Scuba diving teacher.

20. Dog musher.

21. West Coast house sitter.

22. Inventor of the next best seasonal donut (think a donut that gains as much hype as the PSL).

23. High-end mixologist.

24. Cake-decorator.

25. Creator of a music festival.

26. Doggy daycare owner.

27. Finger painter who creates million dollar masterpieces.

28. Online travel blogger.

29. Caricature artist.

30. Hot air balloon driver (aka ballooner).

... plus anything and everything else under the sun.

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.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

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.
