Grandma's are here for a good time, not a long time and we want to enjoy them while they last. Here are some reasons why your grandma should be your best friend.

1. She spoils you with love and lots of cookies.

Grandmas make the best cookies, regardless of flavor.

2. She never fails to make her house feel like home.

Sometimes if your lucky, you even get your own room.

3. She takes you on some pretty bomb vacations.

Whether it’s the next town over or somewhere tropical, she spoils you.

4. She's been with you since birth so she basically knows everything about you.

All of your past relationships, all of your friends, your daily routine, she knows it all.

5. She keeps your secrets from your parents.

She knows some things that you’ll keep from them for your entire life.

6. She's pretty much your human diary.

Tell her everything, she won’t judge. Also, she gives some pretty good advice based on her life experiences.

7. Did I mention that she bakes a lot of cookies?

Snickerdoodles, chocolate chips, sugar, no bakes...

8. She listens to you more than she listens to anyone else.

She would drop everything just to hear your voice.

9. She gives you a little more love than she ever gave her own kids.

Grandkids are truly spoiled!

10. In her eyes, you can never fail, no matter what.

Even if you win last place in your favorite sport, you won first place in her eyes.

11. She has the biggest knowledge of natural healing remedies for when you get hurt.

Don’t even get me started on the jello/Sore-throat trick or the “spoonful of sugar helps the medicine go down.”

12. She has seen you naked as a baby so she knows you inside and out.

She has changed your diapers and most likely kissed you all over the place so know that she probably knows where all of your birthmarks and scars are.

13. She makes an effort to introduce herself as "grandma" to your friends.

Mi abuela es tú abuela. = “My grandma is your grandma.”

14. She never thinks that you are too old for sleepovers at her house.

She definitely knows how to party!

15. ^ Where she makes cookies

AH YAY COOKIESSSS!!!!!

16. She's down for crazy adventures because she savors your youth.

You may think that she is being “embarrassing” or “uncool” by going to the movies with you but someday you’ll look back on those days and smile.

17. She loves you more than anyone in the world so cherish her at all costs.

No one lives forever, spend all the time that you can with her!

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.
