Your iPod Nano In Middle School

512 Pixels

On July 1 Fergie released a new single that changed all of us forever. Reminded that in middle school Fergie was one of my music queens, it brought up some of my other favorites too. So, with the help of my iTunes playlist and some of my sisters, I give you a list of songs that were probably on your hot pink iPod nano.

1. "Beautiful Girls" by Sean Kingston

Don't worry, we were all confused as to why he was suicidal.

2. "Whatcha Say" by Jason Derulo

You totally posted the lyrics to this song when you were mad at your boyfriend of three days.

3. "Fergalicious" by Fergie

#fergieferg

4. "Buttons" by The Pussycat Dolls

You didn't know what the words really meant, but you and your friends tried learning the choreography. #trust

5. "Replay" by Iyaz

Replay, replay-ee-yay-ay!

6. "Nine in the Afternoon" by Panic! at the Disco

Panic! was a staple in your emo phase (still is, tbh).

7. "When You Look Me In The Eyes" by the Jonas Brothers

Because you were ~totes~ in love with your boyfriend (RIP Joe's long hair).

8. "Lip Gloss" by Lil Mama

What'chu know 'bout me? What'chu, what'chu know?

9. "She Will Be Loved" by Maroon 5

Hit that high note!

10. "Hey Ya!" by OutKast

A true classic.

11. "Show Stopper" by Danity Kane

All my girls in the rainbow Cadillacs!

12. "Damaged" by Danity Kane

Gotta give them back to back spots on the list because they were the anthem for your group of girlfriends.

13. "Buy U a Drank" by T-Pain

OOOO-EEEEEEE!

14. "The Great Escape" by Boys Like Girls

Whatever happened to them anyway?

15. "Pretty Girl Rock" by Keri Hilson

When "don't hate me 'cause I'm beautiful" was your caption under your new MySpace pic.

16. "Kiss Me Thru the Phone" by Soulja Boy

We all called the number, it's okay.

17. "Sexy Can I" by Ray J

Yeah, but did you ask Kim K if you could?

18. "Sk8er Boi" by Avril Lavigne

This song played without fail every time you went into Hot Topic.

19. "Bleeding Love" by Leona Lewis

CLOSED OFF FROM LOVE, I DIDN'T NEED THE PAIN.

20. "Lucky" by Britney Spears

This is still a bop and you know it.

Though the list ends at 20, we all know that your iPod was constantly getting new music because of the days when Limewire existed and all songs on iTunes were 99 cents (RIP). Maybe it's not that the music from middle school was better, but the memories attached to that music are what keeps us coming back. What are your favorite middle school jams?

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.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

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.
