Gotta get those 10,000 steps.

A Day In The Life Of A Fitbit Owner

If you don't know what a Fitbit is, it's a handy little gadget you wear on your wrist pretty much 24/7. It tracks your steps, calories, sleep, water, flights of stairs walked, miles walked, heart rate, basically everything. Owning a Fitbit changes a person. It makes you just a little crazy about tracking every single thing you do. You constantly are checking your phone to see how many steps you have, and how many more steps you need to beat your friends. Here's what a day in the life of a Fitbit owner is like.

Waking up.

Waking up with a Fitbit, the first thing to do is check how you slept that night. Thanks to your handy gadget, you can see exactly when during the night you were restless, woke up, and how many hours and minutes you slept. You then realize that your sleeping schedule is not okay.

Charging the Fitbit.

Unfortunately, you realize that your Fitbit does not have enough charge to help get you through the day so you have to set aside some time to let it charge up. During this time you aren't going to take any steps because well if you don't have your Fitbit on, what's the point in moving? There is nothing worse than going the whole day with a dead Fitbit. Trust me.

Fitbit Challenges.

Once your Fitbit it charged up, you check your challenges that are going on with your friends to see how many steps you need to beat them during your Workweek Challenge. This causes you to run around like an absolute lunatic trying to get in as many steps as you possibly can. You want that cool trophy badge. One day I will crush you, Taylor.

Step goals.

Ever since owning a Fitbit, the only thing that truly ever matters is hitting the step goal. Once that lil bracelet vibrates, it's like you've won the best prize ever. And 10,000 steps is more than one would think. At the end of the day, if you only have a few hundred steps left, jogging in place is the only option.

Going out.

Fitbits aren't always the cutest accessories, but honestly, it's not worth going out without wearing it.

Forgetting the Fitbit.

This is the most devastating thing that could ever happen to you. Once you realize it's missing from your wrist, what's the point in even moving anymore? What's the point in even living anymore? OK, a little dramatic, but it's true.

Buying a Fitbit is totally worth it. Owning one has its ups and downs, but in the end, it makes you want to move around more, so what's the harm in that?

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.
