Going into your last year of highschool seems like a breeze, but it is much harder than it feels. Lots of people have many regrets by the end of it all and even want to repeat the year. When everyone tells you it goes by fast they are not lying. So these are some things to remeber to make your senior year a success so buckle up and ride this year out with no regerts... or well regrets.

1. Always tell your family about your day.

You may not think it is important, but to them it means the world.

2. Go to every football game even if your boyfriend is older than you.

It will be important once you do not have the option to go ever again you will regret not going

3. Make as many memories with your best friends as possible

By summer you might not have the time to make any By summer you will be insanely busy so hang out with your friends and take tons of pictures.

4. Say goodbye to your favorite teachers because you never know if they'll be there when you come visit.

If you do not say goodbye to them when you leave you may never get the chance to you never know when they'll move on!

5. Enjoy the things you do every year such as Marching band or the Talent Show or maybe even orchestra because the last time will come fast


The last time hits you like a boulder as you stand as a senior, but live that bittersweet moment up!

6. Do not be afraid to cry sometimes its bittersweet being a senior


Everything is happy, yet is sad near the end. So cry. It is normal. Soak it up.


7. Study study study! Senior year is not easy.

Well that one explains itself... do not become a senior again.

8. Smile as much as you can.

Smiling is not always easy, but enjoy these days they are the easy ones


9. Buy the tassel and cup and key ring. I promise you'll never use them again, but you'll be happy you have them.

It is unnecessarily expensive, but you'll want it when it all ends.

10. Do not be afraid to go crazy at graduation cry, scream, laugh it is the last chance to do so as a kid

This is the last time to really live it up its a huge accomplishment and a goodbye live it up.

Bonus tip: Do not take anything for granted.

Even the little things should mean the world!

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.

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.
