13 Steps Of A Starbucks Addiction

Everyone has had Starbucks at least once. Most people go everyone once and awhile and enjoy their frappuccinos or lattes after a really long day or early morning. And then there's you. The addict that spends most of their paycheck on their daily fix. It's ok, we're not judging.

1. Your first taste

Whether it's a hot chocolate or a vanilla bean creme frappuccino or, maybe, an actual coffee, you knew as soon as the drink hit your lips you were hooked.

2. You establish a go-to order

As soon as you get your first taste you know, nothing else will ever taste as good. So you create the PERFECT order. Just how you like it. Experimenting may mean getting something you don't like and you can't risk losing the tenuous hold SBucks has on you.

3. Once a week cravings

At this point you can't function if you don't get Starbucks at least once a week. It all started out so innocent.

4. Gift cards for EVERY holiday

People have stopped asking what to get you. They already know.

5. Searching for excuses to go

Group projects are your best friend. They give you the perfect outlet to casually suggest a meet up at your local Starbucks.

6. Daily cravings

It's not long before your once a week cravings have turned into daily ones. You'll catch yourself longingly thinking of Starbucks as you hustle off to class. You question how you continue to exist without it.

7. You soon catch yourself itching to steal other people's Starbucks

Because at this point your order doesn't even matter any more. SBucks is SBucks

8. An order for every season

You have been a customer for so long that you have it down to a science. You know which drink suites you best for Summer, Spring, Fall, and Winter.

9. Cups all over your room

Seriously, you could build a house out of all the Starbucks cups littered around your room.

10. Going several times a day

One cup isn't enough. Especially if it's been a rough day. Two or more isn't even a question any more.

11. Ordering a Trenta and never batting an eye

You can feel the eyes of the other customers judging you and you can't care.

12. The baristas know your name

They even spell it correctly.

13. You spend your free time there

There's no place like home, right?

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.
