My love-hate relationship with IOS 10

A special shoutout to all the lovely iPhone users, you rock. We all freaked out when we got the update. Wait we can draw stuff and send it, and how did you send me balloons? Yes, we all updated our lovely little babies to IOS 10. Some love it some hate it, but if you're anything like me you love and hate it.

The emojis.

What the actual heck? Did we go back in time or what? Why do these emojis look so terrible now? What happened to the cute little emojis! And hello why is the gun a water gun now?! And even though I do hate some of them with a burning passion there are some new ones including, single parents, homosexual partners with children, churches and women weightlifting.

Parked Car

This may be the best thing that has ever happened to me. Apple can officially remember where you parked. All my life problems have been solved.

Digital Touch Message

Hello, best thing ever! Now I can send special little drawings to my friends and even better yet the little ones in my life!

Movie

Being away at college and away from all my friends and family can be super difficult at times. (Love y'all!) The new update has this awesome thing, just by going into your memories, then clicking people, places or related a little movie will be created. You can select the type of music you'd like and the length of the movie.

Widgets

Now when you swipe right you have access to apps. You have the ability to personalize your widgets. Personally I chose Siri App Suggestions, Weather, Maps & Destinations, Calendar, Reminders and Photos.

Unlocking

Eventually, it will be okay, but as for me I am so used to swiping to one side and unlocking my phone. However, now you must press the home button and enter the passcode or use your fingerprint.

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.
