1. You get to help people

There are so many people out there that would love to help people, if that's you then the medical field is such a good place to be. There are so many different professions out there that can help so many different people!

2. Making a difference

In the medical field, you get to meet so many new people and help them out for their future. You show them that you actually care and the patients see that you are doing your best to give them exactly what they deserve.

3. Always learning

This isn't a career where you just learn stuff in school and work daily. Yes you'll be working, but you get to learn everyday on the job, you'll learn different things about people and how somethings work for some but not for others. You'll learn daily.

4. Many opportunities

Many opportunities

Like I said before there are sooo many different career opportunities in this field. Doctors, nurses, ultrasound techs, x-ray techs, and sooo much more. Find something that interest you and pursue it!

5. Scrubs

Honestly they feel like pajamas and who wouldn't love going to work everyday feeling comfy??

6. Job security

There will always be a need for people in this field because everyone will always need health services. Finding a job that will always be needed in the future can be hard, but you can't go wrong with this.

7. Travel Opportunities

In the medical field, there are so many opportunities to travel. You can be the one to go help people all over the country or even the world.

8. Always a challenge

These jobs involve patient care, and not every patient is happy to be there or are in severe pain. They won't always be the nicest people ever so you have to be a people person, at least at your job.

9. You may get to save someones life

I know, you weigh the options. You may not want to be in the medical field because of the "in case someone dies". But that's how life works, and imagine all the people you could save getting into this field. Saving someones life can have a major impact on your life that you'll forever be thankful for.

10. You know what you want

Going into the medical field is like a calling. Don't do it for the money, when choosing a job/career you need to find something you will enjoy doing the rest of your life. Make sure you get it right!

This is for the girls who have dealt with an emotionally, mentally, physically or verbally abusive father.

The ones who have grown up with a false lens of what love is and how relationships should be. The ones who have cried themselves to sleep wondering why he hurts you and your family so much. This is for all the girls who fall in love with broken boys that carry baggage bigger than their own, thinking it's their job to heal them because you watched your mother do the same.

Blair Waldorf Quote
"DESTINY IS FOR LOSERS. IT'S JUST A STUPID EXCUSE TO WAIT FOR THINGS TO HAPPEN INSTEAD OF MAKING THEM HAPPEN." - BLAIR WALDORF.

The world stopped in 2012 when our beloved show "Gossip Girl" ended. For six straight years, we would all tune in every Monday at 9:00 p.m. to see Upper Eastside royalty in the form of a Burberry headband clad Blair Waldorf. Blair was the big sister that we all loved to hate. How could we ever forget the epic showdowns between her and her frenemy Serena Van Der Woodsen? Or the time she banished Georgina Sparks to a Christian summer camp? How about that time when she and her girls took down Bart Bass? Blair is life. She's taught us how to dress, how to be ambitious, and most importantly, how to throw the perfect shade.

You're moving your stuff onto your floor, and you will encounter people you don't know yet in the hallway. They live on your floor, so you'll awkwardly smile and maybe introduce yourself. As you walk away, you will wonder if they will ever speak to you again, but don't worry, there's a good chance that you will make some great friends on your floor!

Recently I completed my freshman year of college, and boy, what an experience. It was a completely new learning environment and I can't believe how much I learned. In an effort to save time, here are the ten biggest lessons I learned from my first year of college.

1. Everyone is in the same boat

For me, the scariest part of starting school was that I was alone, that I wouldn't be able to make any friends and that I would stick out. Despite being told time and time again that everyone had these same feelings, it didn't really click until the first day when I saw all the other freshman looking as uneasy and uncomfortable as me. Therefore, I cannot stress this enough, everyone is feeling as nervous as you.
