Why I Hate People Who Vape

I literally hate people that vape. Honestly, I’d rather see you smoking a cigarette because at least there is a cool factor associated with it.

Have you ever seen the people who vape? They’re the sweaty guys that walk around malls in wife-beaters and may be suffering from pre-mature balding. They’re the women who wear brightly colored animal print pregnancy tops and heeled flip-flops. They're the boys at your gym with giant shoulder tattoos trying to compensate for being irrelevant in high school. People that vape are like vegetarians, all they want to do is tell you about how vaping saved their lives. These are not the people you want in your life.

First off, there is nothing cool about vaping. You’re not smoking weed, you’re not smoking a cigarette; you’re smoking chemical air out of an ugly plastic tube you probably bought at a stand in the mall.

Many studies have shown that vaping is not actually healthier and contains just as many unknown chemicals as cigarettes do. Vape websites even admit that vaping is not healthier. FYI -- you haven’t stopped smoking, you’re just inhaling different chemicals. If you’re not strong enough to quit cigarette smoking all together, then don’t think you're doing yourself a favor by smoking a vape.

Then there is the argument that vaping saves so much money, to which I say, quitting and chewing Nicorette gum for a year is even cheaper in the end.

Many e-cigarette websites also credited vaping to being more sociable. Wrong. Have you ever been to a club and seen a group of people happily enjoying life while vaping? No! Have you ever been out to dinner and seen a group of important businessmen making a deal over Vapes? No! There is nothing social about it because no one is going to want to hang out with you if you smoke an e-cig. I would rather be covered in three layers of cigarette smoke than talk to someone about to put a vape pen in their mouth.

As you can see, there is literally no benefit to vaping unless you want to lower your social status. I appreciate vaping for being better for the environment and not causing secondhand smoke, but I do not appreciate having secondhand embarrassment from a plastic e-cigarette hanging out of your mouth. You’re not doing your body a favor, so might as well do society a favor and stop looking like a major douche bag.

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.
