2016 Fall Trends: Secret Societies!
Your Perception Is Not Reality

The Illuminati The Free Masons. You may have heard these names and many more when you think of Secret Societies. These organizations, obviously kept in the dark, have existed for ages, and many of its members are normal people, like you and I. There are so many advantages to being in a secret society, and that's why I think everyone needs to see this as the BEST fall trend for 2016! But what is my reasoning?

1) It's like a sorority or frat, but like, way so cooler! Since it's so secret, it keeps so much more mystery. And there's no stories on how you streaked through the quad and got caught by security because you brothers and sisters are sworn to secrecy. Awesome!

2) Those long ceremonial robes aren't just for rituals! Use your robes to keep warm at your school's sporting events and other outings. Nothing screams team spirit like a sacrifice!

3) Secret Societies are so vintage!

Since they've been around for like, ever, you'll look so retro wearing your secret society accessories! There's so many gorgeous pieces to mix and match, like rings, pins, and even masks! Sooooo fashionable!

4) Even celebrities are in with the trend too! We all know Beyoncé and Jay-Z are in on it, and let's not forget our powerful lizard leader President Barack Obama! There are even conspiracies that say Queen Elizabeth is part of the Illuminati. You'll be so amazed to see how many celebs are just like you when you start your secret membership!


5) Some societies are so punk and edgy! For example, Yale's society Skull and Bones, which both the Bush's and even John Kerry were a part of. The name is so dark and mysterious and would totally freak your parents out! When asked about the group, the two politicians said the group was far too secret to discuss. Why get a nose ring when you can be part of an organization with a name like that? So fierce.


6) Stay lit and turnt at society meetings! Secret Society get together's are probably so fun, and I'm sure there are plenty of mixers and holiday parties to go to! Drinks on the Grand Master Wizard!


7) Hello, Charity! Some secret societies give generously to those in need. The Shriner's have many hospitals and have charities that help those in need of medical attention who cannot afford it. So Bill Gates-y!


8) Look so in the know with fun handshakes and secret passwords! Being in a secret society is like having a million inside jokes! Have secret fun with you members in public by using your secret handshakes and passwords! Astonish and impress your friends with how secret you are! You'll be the life of the party in no time!

9) Be the "queen bee" of your society! In some societies, like the Organization of the Triangles, the leader is called the "Beloved Queen". What a super groovy label! Be the Regina George of your clique! You can even get "Beloved Queen" tattooed on your rib cage for a really nice touch!


10) "But what if I don't like my secret society?" You can still use the trends and accessories that come with the membership! You can buy everything on Amazon, right? And maybe you can even create your own secret society with your friends! So DIY chic!

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.
