If you're into makeup, you've probably experienced some mistakes (expensive ones) that made you doubt makeup altogether. But then you walk into Sephora and everything returns to normal. Here's a list of experiences that people who love makeup can relate to:

1. Finding the liquid lipstick of all liquid lipsticks and crying because it’s $22.

But buying it anyway because it’s the perfect nude shade (and it stays on after your third burrito.)

2. Having a short “gothic-eyeliner-phase.” We may have toned it down but Facebook will always remind us.

3. Dying a little inside when someone asks if you're tired but really you just didn't wear makeup.

4. When you find a fake eyelash on the floor of your room and you think it’s a bug.

5. Contouring so noticeably that your mom has to tell you to relax.

6. Getting slightly offended when someone doesn’t notice your new winged-eyeliner look.

That took you like 20 minutes of angry smudge erasing.

7. That feeling when someone says they love your make up. You feel like Michelle Phan for a moment.

8. Taking an hour to do your make up and hating it so much you take it off.

9. YouTube tutorials.

Doing them step-by-step and somehow not looking like the makeup artist (but still loving the process anyway).

10. Loving the process.

Knowing that although makeup is fun, you still can be natural without worrying about your flaws.

I've known you your entire life. More than likely I held you in the first three days of it and at least one of us cried. Cousins are truly one of the best things in the world and while sometimes I complain about how many people crowd Grandma's living room on Christmas Eve, I wouldn't trade you all anything.

You are my best friends, the only people who can understand what it's like on Thanksgiving, and you are the spunkiest people I have ever met. But you as so so young, most of you are just now starting your adventures in the public education system. I mean, I'm so very young too. I'm not married, I don't have children, heck, I just started my adult life, but I do want to give you what little advice I have. My dears, these are the things I want you to know.

You are a senior in high school, you have made it to the final year that you have been looking forward to since the first day of freshman year. Whether this has been the worst or best four years of your life, appreciate it. You will never have these times back, you will never be in high school again. It is hard for someone still in high school to wrap their brain around, but there will be a day when you wish you could be in the shoes you're in right now. Here are 15 things I have learned being in college that I wish I knew as a high school senior:

Many people think that this show is the best thing they've ever watched and others won't bother watching it because they know they'll get hooked. And yes, I know many people have written about this show before, but I couldn't resist. I could re-watch every season multiple times to the point where I can almost quote an entire scene. Trust me, once you start "One Tree Hill", you will be hooked. There's way too many reasons to list as to why you'll love this show, and these are just a few.

The first two weeks of classes have come to an end and they have been anything BUT easy. It seems like life has been serving up more bad than good and in all honesty, the only thing you want to do is crawl under your covers and hide from the rest of the world.

Although this seems like the best solution, it is also the easy way out. Take it from the girl who took basically a whole week off from her life because she just could not handle everything that was being thrown at her. This caused her to feel extremely lonely and even more stressed out for being behind in classes that JUST began.
