Hands down, Sleeping is one of the greatest sensations in the entire world. However, the art of sleeping is different for every single person.

Some thrive on only 4-6 hours. While others may need 10-12. However, some prefer to sleep 20 out of the 24 hours of the day. Their sleep schedule is more important than their work. Their Friday nights consist of seeing if they can sleep through the weekend with limited bathroom breaks and a granola bar.

You believe that by sleeping more, you are becoming the best version of yourself. If sleeping were an Olympic sport, you genuinely believe you could take gold. There are only some of the traits that can qualify you for a "Sleepaholic" but if you identify with more than 5 out 8 qualifications below, you are living one of the best lives.

1. You put your naps above everything.

People could say "Hey, want to get dinner," and "Hey, we should study," or "We need to talk." However, your first thought will always be, "Can I take a nap first?"

You plan your days around it and there is no need to be ashamed of it.

2. You can sleep anywhere.

Class, Work, Plane, Train. You name it, it can be done.

3. You dream about sleep all day.

From the moment you step out of your bed, you long for the moment you'll be back in it.

4. You envision yourself as a Mulan but you're more of Sleeping Beauty.


And do not get me wrong, you may be a kickass human fighting in place of your father to defeat the Huns when you're actually awake. However, you would not mind sleeping for a few months thanks to a sleeping spell.

5. You prefer sleeping over eating

Yeah, believe it or not, but this is a thing. You know the life of skipping lunch multiple days in a row to nap. Food to an Olympic napper is just a preference at this point. Unless it's Chick-fil-A, but that is an article for a different day.

6. You get a rush when you say "I slept 15 hours yesterday" and you watch how people react.

Whereas that is a light day for you, others are #shook when you tell them that you can sleep for that long and then wake up and take another nap.

7. You don't mind skipping things just to nap.

The phrase "Sorry, I'm busy" is your response to everything just because you want to sleep. However, you can stop lying to your friends, they know you're napping.

8. However, you're awake and present when it counts.

You never miss the important events, phone calls, or text because sometimes, you put yourself selfish needs aside to be with the ones you love... only sometimes though (Let's not get crazy)

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

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.
