6 Struggles Girls Who Wear Uggs Can Understand

Uggs are an iconic feature of any cozy winter scene. If you've ever slipped a foot into one of these wonderfully warm and comfortable assets to footwear, then you probably understand why so many people satisfy themselves with this commodity. But the winter season ain't over yet, and if you're still rocking your Uggs, you know these struggles all too well.

1. You were just a little salty when coughing up the $200.

Hey, Uggs are pretty expensive -- worth the money, but expensive nonetheless. I admit to gingerly pulling Benjamins from my wallet (and my parents' wallets) when buying Uggs. But we've probably all told ourselves that we can power through the soreness of spending and feel much better in the morning!

2. Yet, you can't buy just one pair.

There are just so many styles, designs and colors to choose from! You'll make your first purchase and always want to come back for more. There will always be that pair that you just have to have. Even if you don't act on your desire to buy another pair, you'll at least fantasize about owning it -- hey, a girl can dream!

3. You feel the need to guard them with your life.

Umm, these things cost hundreds of dollars...why wouldn't you do everything in your power to keep them as spotless as the rowdy world can allow? But we all know that this easier said than done.

4. Your heart breaks a little every time you see a new mark on your Uggs.

And now the weight of the $200 hits you. You didn't pay all that money to be perfectly OK with getting crap on your gems. Every mark, stain and drop of water that hits your Uggs defaces them in unimaginable and irreversible ways (at least that's how it feels).

5. When you accidentally step in a puddle, all hell breaks loose.

You stepped in what? A puddle? Uggs 101: Any form of precipitation is not your friend! Don't even get me started on surprise rain showers from mother nature! This might seem small, but you most likely have had your day basically ruined beyond repair because of it.

6. You get judged -- just a little.

It's still super annoying when people think they're entitled to reprimanding you for your choice in footwear. What's with the stigma against wearing Uggs, anyway? Your feet, your decision -- but haters just don't seem to get that.

Despite these challenges, we will all prevail against the forces of torrential downpours, expensive taste and obnoxious opinions!

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.
