While every viewer is busy fawning over Jim and Pam’s relationship, the true hero of "The Office" shines on. Creed Bratton, the erratic, and pretty much clinically insane, character takes the award for greatest person on the show. The random and outrageous things he says, does and talks about are legendary. I knew the moment that I finished "The Office" that Creed was definitely the underrated star of the show and deserves to be in the spotlight. Here are a handful of the numerous times I realized that Creed went above and beyond my expectations for his character and truly surprised us all.

1. A great episode where Creed really shines is when he was manager for the day. He gathers his employees in the conference room to put together an anagram out of the word "boboddy" and spells business as "biznus." What even is boboddy?

2. Another great thing about Creed is how he never really knows what he's doing at Dunder Mifflin ... And neither do we.

3. Creed's coworkers also decide to play a prank on him one day and switch the apple he's eating with a potato. He didn't notice.

4. He also says very peculiar and entertaining things throughout the show, but no one ever really knows exactly what he's talking about.

5. You can't forget about his always thoughtful and personal Secret Santa gifts.

6. Creed also goes to great lengths to keep his job. One episode, he thought he was going to lose his job because he was too old and dyed his hair with printer ink.

7. Creed cares about the younger generation. He gives back to the teenage community.

8. He also seems to care about women and uses their bathroom instead of the men's. No one ever questions this.

9. And finally, in the season finale, when you realize that Creed Bratton was actually Creed Bratton from The Grass Roots the whole time.

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.
