Ballroom dancing is beautiful to watch and even more beautiful to learn. I am so happy I decided to join the ballroom dance club at my school, and if your school has one, I highly suggest you do the same. Here are some reasons why you should give ballroom dancing a shot.

1. The costumes

They are absolutely stunning. The rhinestones, the colors, and every little detail are beautiful. You'll look and feel great wearing them!

2. The beauty and grace of the dance moves

With every turn and movement you make, there is an art to it. It's magical to watch this very classy dance.

3. You'll get to feel as though you are on Dancing with the Stars

The dancers on that show know their stuff! By learning ballroom dancing, you could be the next Derek Hough or Cheryl Burke. You won't until you try it out!

4. The friends you make


You'll make a ton of friends with the people who dance with you and if you decide to compete, you'll be friendly with the people at the competitions. Especially if you go to many competitions, you'll begin to see the same people and develop friendships with them.

5. Competitions

Speaking of competitions, if you join ballroom you have the opportunity to get in some friendly competition. If you're really great, you'll place and get to move up to the next level, which only improves your ballroom dancing skills.

6. You'll feel so proud of yourself after you perfect each move

Ballroom dancing isn't easy, but once you get the hang of it, it will be a blast! It's fun to learn new dance moves to add to a routine or even if you wanted to dance for fun!

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.
