Rules are meant to be broken am I right? Well, at least these ones are from time to time.

1. Skipping class because you have to study for another test


So you may have accidentally taken a "study break" and it ended up being six weeks worth of class and now you have a huge test and only so many hours to cram. So, you see a perfect excuse to skip a class before your big exam strictly for the sake of your GPA.

2. Breaking your diet

I'm not saying you should throw away that kick butt workout you just completed or throw away all the progress you've made in becoming a vegan but, eat a cheeseburger if you want it, that's all.

3. Texting him or her first

Today, modern romance is all about who can care less. On one hand, you might really want to talk to a guy but you wouldn't dare text him first. And on the other hand, he's too shy because he thinks you're out of his league. But, you both desperately want to talk to each other. Break. This. Rule. Can we actually not make this a rule anymore? Text someone if you want to talk to them, life's too short!

4. Buying the expensive bag

Buy that expensive bag or shoes because you are worth it and you are worth it now. Invest in yourself now. Maybe you will have to order off the McDonald's dollar menu for a week or two but, at least you'll look fabulous doing it.

5. Kissing on the first date

If the night is right and the moment is romantic don't ruin it because you have made up some rule in your head. Studies have shown that if you kiss on the first date, you are completely safe from wasting a cute outfit on the second date that ends with a bad, no firework, no sparks, kind-of kiss.

6. Wearing white after labor day

If I want to wear white jeans or a white dress I don't care when it is, I'm doing it. If the shoes fit, wear it. If the outfit is white and it's after labor day but you look amazing, wear it.

7. Getting a tattoo when you're young

Coming from someone who doesn't even have an ink, it annoys me when I hear other people ask someone, "what do you think that's gonna look like when you're ninety?" , or "are you sure you want that on your body for the rest of your life?". Let people live their own lives the way they want to!

8. Wearing something out of your "age" zone

Again, if you think you look good in something, wear it with confidence! Don't second guess yourself just because it might make you look a little younger or a little older.

9. Eating after midnight

Calories don't count after midnight should be the new rule. Sometimes you find yourself on a Saturday night out with your friends and they want to go through a drive-thru. You can't be lame and say no just because it's late at night.

10. Sneaking candy into the movies

When candy costs four dollars at the movie theatre and one dollar at a gas station it can be tempting to sneak it in. It's nothing to be ashamed about unless you get caught, then that's just really embarrassing.

Sometimes you just have to break the rules and do harmless little things like this to make it seem like you're living life on the edge. What rules are you going to break today?

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.
