Through my obsession with television, I have realized that some of my favorite shows are those with hilarious characters who have a certain witty charm to them. Characters such as Jim Halpert from "The Office", Chandler Bing from "Friends" and Damon Salvatore from "The Vampire Diaries" are just a few that come to mind.

Their witty remarks throughout the show make watching the series that much more enjoyable. I have watched random episodes of "The Office" or "Friends" in the morning just to get a kick out of it before I start my day. These 20-minute long episodes are just long enough to brighten people’s day. Jim’s constant pranks towards Dwight, as well as his facial expressions towards the cameras send tears of joy down my face. Damon Salvatore’s witty remarks turns a mourning scene into a hilarious one in a matter of seconds. Chandler Bing also warms our hearts with his honesty towards other people. These men are not afraid to be themselves. While these men do have a great sense of humor, they also are the dream man any girl would faun over if they got the chance to meet them in real life. Jim Halpert is the man who never gave up on love. He was not afraid to go against the odds and wait for Pam. He always puts Pam first before he thinks of himself. Damon Salvatore is another man who fought for love. Even Elena forgot about how much she loved him, he used his charm to pull her back in. Chandler Bing is another character you fall in love with, without even noticing it. Chandler’s honesty helps people always know what he’s thinking.

All these men were friends to their women before they officially fell in love with them or acted upon it. All of these men bring life to the show. They bring joy to people’s eyes and these men are realistic to our everyday life. Although unfortunately, we will not have a vampire boyfriend, their wit does shows their humanity. They are all not afraid to be who they truly are. They do not conform to what others want them to be. If anything, they change for the better. They also stand up for what they think is right, while bringing humor to their viewers. These men are also not afraid to show all emotions. They are all not afraid to break down and cry when necessary. Through the humor of these characters, these shows have had several successful seasons. People have felt a loss when these shows have already or are starting to come to a close. The world has had to say goodbye to these familiar faces and treasure the moments we got to spend with them.

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.
