Now, living in a world were we conform to the mass population. This article will mean absolutely nothing too 89% of the world, but to the better 11% population here are 11 things that only you will understand.


1) Paper Towel Dispensers

Who ever invented these need to realize that not everyone uses just there right hand.

2) Scissors

These are the death of lefty's. I'd rather run a mile than cut with right handed scissors and THAT says a whole lot.

3) Zippers on your pants

Now who thought of this one?????

4) Writing

Nothing worse than doing a whole art project to smudge the whole entire thing at the end.

6) Binders and notebooks

If you want a lefty to write in one of these you mine as well ask a 6 year old because it is impossible to write neatly.

7) Number pad on a keyboard

Not that this is the worst invention ever, but it would be nice if some things were on the left side.

8) Can Openers

This single invention makes me wish everything in a can never existed.

9) Writing on coffee mugs

Not that this mug isn't very cute but while picking it up one morning someone might think you are trying to give a hint while sippin' on your cup of joe trying to live your life.

11) Check Marks

"Why are your check marks backwards?" Well why do care so much about how I do a check mark???

12) Desks

Try taking a standardized test with no arm support and half a desk. Doesn't go over well, I have the scores to prove it.

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.
