21 Things I Thought I'd See Before The Cubs In The World Series

IT'S FINALLY HAPPENING. As a Chicagoan, I thought hell would freeze over before we finally made it to the world series. But after years of believing that this would finally be the year... It's finally the year. The Cubs are in the World Series. But if you would have told me that this would be happening this time two years ago, I would have told you there's no way. Here is a list of things I thought would happen before the Cubs made it to the world series.

1. Hillary's emails.
2. Colonizing Mars.
3. World peace.
4. Consistent weather in Chicago.
5. A pregnant man.
6. Donald Trump giving a speech without saying a single offensive remark.
7. An actual talent from the Kardashian's.
8. A bad song by Beyonce.
9. Another season of How I Met Your Mother.
10. Diversity in the Oscar's.
11. Finding out who A is in Pretty Little Liars.
12. Exploding cell phones (Oh wait... that happened)
13. Chipotle going out of business.
14. America making college free.
15. Rude Canadians.
16. Taylor Swift and Kanye West collaborating.
17. Finding the cure to all disease.
18. Seeing pigs fly.
19. Bell-bottom jeans making a comeback.
20. Graduating from a four year college debt free.
21. The Bears winning another Superbowl.

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.
