If I Had A Super Power That I Would Actually Use In Everyday Life It Would Be a tie between these 12

1. Control weather

https://giphy.com/search/weather

My favorite season is probably autumn because the wind is just blowing so nicely and gently that I don't feel cold at all. The sun's not so fierce as well. I can wear whatever I want to wear, either short dresses or long coats. I always wanted to stay in autumn when it gets too hot or too cold.

2. Eat without gaining weight

I believe this is an ability every woman is dying to have. Some people have already managed to do that and won't call it as a super power. But I mean really eat a lot because I would give my whole life to food no joking. I can eat all day if I won't gain weight.

3. Immediate make-up

If I could have this ability, all I have to do in the morning is to snap my finger and my make-up is done. I can sleep 1 more hour in the morning and don't have to rush to school everyday. I just can't go out without any make-up on.

4. Put others to sleep

Sometimes when I get so tired of people speaking of the world or bragging about something, all I wish I could do was to make them sleep and they can shut their mouth that way.

5. Recognize danger

https://giphy.com/gifs/danger-mMJygtkZIpu6Y

This is an ability I really want to have because I can know what potential danger there will be. That way I can prevent others and myself from going through it and let anything bad happen to us.

6. Talk to anything related to the kitchen

https://giphy.com/gifs/narvesenlt-coffee-mug-narvesen-angry-d2Zfly9C6PV0E36w

I'm a sucker when it comes to cooking. I really wish I could be the kind of person that can manage everything in the kitchen so systematically and orderly like they can actually talk to the appliances and ingredients. If I could have this superpower, I'll definitely use a lot of time to make good connections and relationships with these kitchen appliances and let them help me when I want to cook a fabulous meal for my family.

7. Remember anything I saw only once

https://giphy.com/gifs/thegirlfriendexperience-3o6oziuA28BBlfpRkc

I'm really a forgetful type when I see something that I thought was not important, but later it becomes super important. I've been through this situation for many times. For example, on a daily basis, I just forget where I put my own iPhone all the time. There was one time that I spent nearly one hour finding it in my apartment, which I thought I lost it.

8. Go back through time

https://giphy.com/gifs/disney-future-past-RpO2rHoBrVI6k

There were a lot of decisions and things I did that I thought I could have done better. I'm don't regret anything I have done, but I just want to see what else may happen if I made different choices and decisions, and how my life would change because of that.

9. Instant travel

https://giphy.com/gifs/doctor-who-pretty-time-kxAX99ncvbPk4

Because my family lives in China and I study in America, I can't go back to China every week when I miss them. All I can do is to video chat with them and see them through the screen. Honestly, that feels bad sometimes, especially when I see my American friends posting their parents and grandparents. If I have this ability, I can go back to see them whenever I want.

10. Stay at 18 forever

https://giphy.com/gifs/dance-zac-efron-j9WQcjWzF01nW

18 is my favorite age because I started to live in America by myself and explore all the crazy things that I had no idea of before. I remember the curiosity of seeing the whole new world and culture that was so unfamiliar to me before. I wish I could stay at that age forever and be an energetic explorer forever.

11. Read others' mind

https://giphy.com/gifs/80s-cartoons-she-ra-it8307a0XxlVS

This is a very cliché super power but a very useful one. Who doesn't want to know what others think? That just makes things much easier and transparent in a lot of ways.

12. Leave that to my future self

That's all I can think of for now because I'm really satisfied with my life now. Probably in the future, when I get old and experience more things, I'll see things more differently and want to add one from a much more mature perspective.

1. Thank you for being the one I can always count on to be honest.

A true friend will tell you if the shirt is ugly, or at least ask to borrow it and "accidentally" burn it.

2. Thank you for accepting me for who I am.

A best friend will love you regardless of the stale french fries you left on the floor of your car, or when you had lice in 8th grade and no one wanted to talk to you.

Being sick in college is really tough and definitely not a fun experience. Here are the 15 stages that everyone ends up going through when they are sick at college.

17 Things You Can Only Relate To If You Grew Up With Strict Parents

Sleepovers are not a thing. They're just not.

Do as I say, not as I do.

Your eyes widen in horror as you stare at your phone. Beads of sweat begin to saturate your palm as your fingers tremble in fear. The illuminated screen reads, "Missed Call: Mom."

Growing up with strict parents, you learn that a few things go unsaid. Manners are everything. Never talk back. Do as you're told without question. Most importantly, you develop a system and catch on to these quirks that strict parents have so that you can play their game and do what you want.

Living Away From Home, As Described By 'Friends'

For better or for worse

Loyola University Chicago

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!
