Concerts are my happy place.

There's no better feeling than screaming the words to your favorite songs while the artist is singing them right in front of you. Attending a concert is one of my favorite experiences that everyone should have the pleasure of partaking in. It is truly breathtaking to hear the songs you love performed live. Sometimes it feels unreal to see the people that you idolize performing on a stage. I have so many amazing memories from concerts that I frequently look back on and smile.

Arriving to a concert early and waiting in line is an experience in itself. Concerts are an amazing way to meet people who you share similar interests with. To this day, I have an unbreakable bond with a few people that I met years ago at a concert. I've also met some pretty cool bands while waiting in line for concerts. I love the thrill of waiting in line for a concert because you never know what's going to happen or who's going to turn around the corner. The same goes for waiting after a concert. You never know who's going to walk out of those doors.

Concert tickets usually go on sale months or even years before the actual concert but that just gives you something to look forward to and count down the days until. You don't need to spend a fortune on concert tickets to have a good time. From being in the front row at a concert to being in the "nosebleed section", I've experienced both. I can assure you that attending a concert is one of the greatest things you will ever experience, no matter where you're standing for it. Familiarize yourself with smaller artists/bands. Tickets are cheaper and you'll have a good chance of meeting them too. I personally enjoy attending concerts for smaller artists/bands more, if makes the experience more engaging.

If you've never been to a concert, I highly recommended attending one as soon as possible. Results from an Australian study showed that concertgoers are happier with their lives than those who don't attend concerts. The way I feel at every concert I attend is indescribable that makes me yearn for more.

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.
