Let's talk sisterhood.

20 Signs You Went To An All-Girls High School
Gossip Girl

1. Your teachers would begin every class with a "good morning ladies."

Even though you always sat in your chair the most unlady-like way possible.

2. You knew that your friends had a special event that day if they wore mascara to school.

Like a job interview. Or picking up her little brother from the all-boys school.

3. You'd go all out in spirit assemblies.

All thanks to the unspoken "no shame" rule. Also, your cheerleading team was bomb.

4. You're used to hair being everywhere.

You'd had to pick strands from chairs before sitting in your desk.

5. Despite never having met some of them in person, you knew the full names of the boys at your brother's school, and vice-versa.

Basically, you were just doing what school asked: staying informed.

6. You have fond memories of bake sales being some of the largest and most delicious events on campus.


Nothing sweeter than homemade cookies and brownies.

7. You never miss a "Mean Girls" reference.

And if you did, it was like, "she doesn't even go here!"

8. You used to compare leg hair lengths with your friends during the colder seasons.


The tights were a second layer of warmth.

9. Food had a special place in your heart.

High school Freshman 15 is real.

10. On Valentine's Day, your schools front office would be inundated with flowers and teddy bears that boyfriends dropped off.


The same would go for Prom and Homecoming.

11. Being sung to on your birthday during class was like being serenaded by a chorus of angels.


So many beautiful voices.

12. It was always an enigma to you why the skirt-length dress code was so strictly enforced.


You always complained that only the administrators cared.

13. The lockers at your school were decorated with pictures of male actors/models.


Girls would get particularly creative during finals season.

14. You get excited when a woman is cast as a strong role in a movie.

#Feminism

15. You've been the punchline of some homophobic jokes.


It's called sisterly love.

16. Your dad tried out some goofy moves at the Father-Daughter Dance.

What really got to you was that you were just like him.

17. You know the true definition of feminism.


Simply put: equality.

18. Everyone would know about there boy on campus within five minutes of him being there.


And it seemed strange to see males roaming around freely on weekends.

19. Being only female, your academic/sports/co-curricular/pre-professional teams would regularly catch the media's attention when they won competitions.


Girl power at its finest.

20. You graduated alongside your "sisters," a few who you already plan to be your bridesmaids.


Just like the past four years, you know you'll always stand by those friends through thick and thin.

Epic Creation Myths: Norse Origins Unveiled

What happened in the beginning, and how the heavens were set in motion.

The Norse Creation Myth

Now, I have the everlasting joy of explaining the Norse creation myth. To be honest, it can be a bit kooky, so talking about it is always fun. The entire cosmos is included in this creation myth, not just the earth but the sun and the moon as well. This will be a short retelling, a summary of the creation myth, somewhat like I did with Hermod's ride to Hel.

8tracks radio

We all scroll through the radio stations in the car every once in a while, whether its because we lost signal to our favorite one or we are just bored with the same ol' songs every day. You know when you're going through and you hear a song where you're just like "I forgot this existed!" and before you know it, you're singing every word? Yeah, me too. Like, 95% of the time. If you're like me and LOVE some good throwback music, here's a list of songs from every genre that have gotten lost in time, but never truly forgotten.
