A new year means a new you... right?

There's something about the beginning of a new year. Many look at it as a fresh start, a clean slate. An opportunity to do all of the things they've missed out on doing the year before. But what is it about this "new year" that gives people the push that they didn't have all year long? I guess we'll never know.

1. "I'm Starting My Diet"

Oh yeah Sarah, what was wrong with last month? Or the month before? Will this new year give you the power to resist all temptations against all things sweet and sugary? I sure hope so.

2. "The Gym Is Going To Be My New BFF"

Fellow gym rats, make way. The newbies are coming through.

3. "I'm Going To Start Educating Myself More"

Reading a book turns into watching TV. Watching TV turns into a nap. A nap turns into a full nights sleep and before you know it, you're up and ready for the next day.

4. "I Need To Save Money"

Saving money sounds so good until that direct deposit hits your checking account and you start dreaming of all the things you can buy. Goodbye money, goodbye sanity.

5. "Only Let Me Eat Veggies Guys"

Vegetables and chicken gets old super quick. Eat the pizza. YOLO.

6. "F*ck Drinking, I'm Over It"

School, work, friends. I hate it all.

7. "I'M FINE I SWEAR I'M OKAY"

I physically don't know how to relax, so if you could provide me with an instruction manual, that'd be great!

8. "We're Going To Start Therapy To Improve Our Relationship"

Because all the arguments are endless and it's time for some positive progress.

9. "I'm Going To Get More Organized"

Buy a planner. Rearrange your apartment. Put it in your calendar in your phone. You'll still be sitting in a pile of your sh*t. Literally.

10. "I'm Done With Smoking, It's So Bad For Me"

No? 2016 can't change you? Maybe some lung cancer will.

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.
