12 Truths Every Stereotypical 'Girly Girl' Knows All Too Well

It’s okay to be the stereotypical girly girl. It doesn’t mean you’re dumb and fall into every category the movies portray us as. Just because you’re a girly girl who loves everything pink doesn’t mean you eat a salad everyday. Chances are you probably eat like a grown man. But, a lot of the stereotypes are true for most girly girls.

1. Wearing the most uncomfortable shoes even if they leave you with blisters. Beauty is pain, ladies.

You feel like you have been walking on pins and needles all day, but want to show off those cute new heels you just got. So you’re just going to have to deal with the immense pain I guess.

2. Your favorite color actually is NOT pink, yet you still want everything in pink.

3. Wearing things that aren’t weather/event appropriate.

Wearing thin mittens in negative degree weather because you pick cute over practical. Or, maybe you wore a dress and heels on a 14 hour car ride.

4. Falling in love with the finer things in life.

Everything you touch in a store seems to be five hundred dollars over your budget. Yeah, it’s a struggle. You already know you need to make bank in your future career to support your lifestyle.

5. Getting dressed up even if you’re not going anywhere.

You know, all those times you took an hour to get ready just to go through the Dunkin’ Donuts drive thru.

6. Wanting everything in either a floral pattern or covered in sparkles.

Sometimes you will try to pick something plain out, but you just can’t help yourself!

7. Waking up 3 hours earlier than you actually need to, to get ready.

It’s tough, but you know you just can’t walk around campus looking like a zombie. You just can’t.

8. You never skip an eyebrow waxing. NEVER.

Because you just can’t risk anyone thinking you’re related to gorillas.

9. Having to pick what clothes to pack for a trip.

This is probably some of the hardest decisions in your life. You can’t choose between your favorite shirts and once you do you’ll regret it wish you packed the other one instead. You also probably pack five backup outfits for a three day trip, just to be on the safe side.

10. Having multiples of the same products.

You definitely have at least 3 different curling irons: A normal 1 inch wand, a travel sized one, and a thicker wand for those desired loose wavy curls.

11. You never skip a facial.

You know the importance of renewing your skin and freeing your pores. Some people just don’t get it.

12. Lastly, you know there’s a difference between sparkles and glitter.

Sparkles refract light and glitter reflects light.

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.
