There is no one who is more visible in popular culture right now than Beyoncé. Her talent and beauty inspire people across the planet. Most importantly though, Beyoncé uses her global stage to support a powerful social message. She champions the feminist and black lives matter movements without shame. Beyoncé’s activism and self-empowerment are worth emulating. With that being said, here are some signs you’re the “Beyoncé” of your group:

1. You understand you are inherently valuable as a human being.

Beyoncé knows her life is just as important as anyone else’s and deserves to be treated as such.

2. You stand up for what you believe in.

Though it might not be on a national platform, you’re still making a difference.

3. You love your body for how it is…

Especially when you don’t conform to society’s standards of beauty.

4. You are always prepared to defend your opinions.

Beyoncé is not backing down and neither are you.

5. You don’t derive your self-worth from others’ opinions.

Queen Bey knows she’s the s*** and she doesn’t need anyone else to tell her.

6. You are a feminist...

And you understand feminism is simply a platform supporting equality for all people.

7. You are fully dedicated to the most important aspects of your life.

You would do anything for your own version of Blue Ivy.

8. You own your sexuality.

'Yoncé knows what she does with her body is her choice, and she doesn’t have to answer to anyone for her decisions.

9. You defend marginalized peoples.

Like Beyoncé, you use your position of power or privilege to champion for marginalized voices.

10. You don’t let anyone bring you down.

You are Beyoncé after all.

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?

So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.
