So let's hope I don't lose it

My Life Is In My Planner

Anyone who knows me knows that I can’t live without my planner. It comes with me everywhere and has everything that I deem important in it. I hate that I depend on it so much, but that’s just how it is. Fortunately, I have discovered that there is a whole group of people out there just like me. If your entire life is in your planner, you know these five things to be true. (Also, please appreciate the beauty and organization of each of the pictured planners).

1. Spending hours, days, and even weeks trying to find the right planner.

This will soon be an essential part of your life, so it must be perfect. With so many sizes, designs and layouts, it takes quite a bit of research to find the perfect planner.

2. Trying to explain that your planner is your life.

Most people use planners for academics -- important test dates, quizzes, etc. But then there is a whole other category of us who are 100 percent dependent on our planners. Everything from academic due dates to extracurriculars and meeting times to simpler tasks like when to eat lunch or when to go to bed is neatly prepared. Essentially, our entire lives are outlined in that little book.

3. Planning how to plan your planner.

Yes, this is a thing. Color, handwriting, format?? There are so many options that must be considered.

4. Feeling nothing but fear when you misplace your planner.

This is honestly one of the worst fears ever, and I wouldn’t wish losing a detailed agenda on my worst enemy. As explained in #2, our planners are our lives. When something so significant is misplaced or even lost, it may feel as though the world is ending. (This feeling can't/shouldn't be pictured, so here is another amazing planner instead).

5. Feeling completely satisfied when everything is crossed off your to-do list at the end of the week.

There is nothing better than looking back on your week and seeing everything crossed off. You feel accomplished and motivated to get everything done the next week.

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.
