Because bacon is BAE

Why Bacon Is Better Than You

Let’s get real, bacon is better than you and it’s better than me. There are not a lot of things that live up to bacon’s standards. More than likely, if you try to live up to bacon’s standards, you’re going to fail. On that note, I have yet to meet a single person who does not enjoy eating bacon (besides vegans, of course). This is one of those foods that can literally be eaten at every meal, without questions being asked. Bacon and eggs for breakfast? Sure! Bacon on your cheeseburger? I’m down! Bacon wrapped steak? Any day! So if you add bacon to any other food, odds are that food is going to be 20 times more delicious than before.

Now let's talk about Wendy's. Wendy's has got it going on. They know what we want. UPDATE: we want bacon and we want it NOW! Baconator, Son of Baconator, Baconator Fries, Junior Bacon Cheeseburger, and more are available for purchase for all your bacon loving needs. I can easily eat two Junior Bacon Cheeseburgers without hesitation ... because who likes to eat healthy anyway? We're young, we can handle this.

Just as mesmerizing as the taste of bacon ... is the smell. The smell and the sound of bacon cooking can instantly make me hungry. I can't explain why this happens, but something about cooking bacon makes me excited. Dear Lord, I sometimes wish everything smelled like bacon. There is nothing to compare to that glorious aroma. Such a large majority of consumers have showed love towards this lovely food that there is now an endless variety of novelty products available for bacon lovers everywhere. Bacon scented air fresheners, bacon band-aids, bacon toothpaste, and even bacon flavored sodas. One day I walked into a candle store and I was so captivated that I almost bought a bacon scented candle ... because who doesn't need that in their life?

For reasons mostly unknown, bacon just makes me feel warm and fuzzy inside. For a person who doesn't feel a lot, this is a miracle and a half. The food just reminds me of a simpler time when I had zero cares and responsibilities. I would wake up to the sounds and smells of my father making me breakfast on Saturday morning, and all would be right in the world. I didn't have to worry about a thing. Now, there are a load of tasks and goals I have to accomplish this year. Being most of the way through college, I often look forward to the future and it terrifies me, but things like bacon have a tendency to bring me back to the good days.

Overall, bacon is life. The end. We obviously take our food very seriously.

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.
