9 (Charitable) Organizations You Need to Know About
Here are nine of the many companies out there that give back with every purchase. 1. Pawz for a Cause Pawz for a Cause Every seven seconds a helpless animal is put down in a shelter.

You Did It
Congratulations! You survived the last four years of prison... *cough* I mean, high school! Today is the day that you walk across the stage to get a piece of paper that basically holds the last four years of your life.

I mean I'd even settle for a candy bar, just something more than a piece of paper. I love it when people congratulate me on graduating and I'm just like, "Yeah I went through four years of hell, stress, and tears for this one, single, piece of tree... totally worth it."

So let's just take a moment and reminisce the past four years of your life.

Do not let the abuse take away your life. Get out of that situation. Abuse can occur a variety of different ways. There’s sexual, verbal, emotional, or physical abuse. No one is worse than the other. All are just as bad.

I'm Not the Pretty GirlTop Story - May 2018
Do you ever feel like you're not going to find your soulmate? I definitely know that feeling. I also know the feeling of thinking that you're not enough for someone. I know the feeling when your mom or dad says, "You would be one hell of a catch," but I know that I wouldn't be. I know the feeling of being crazy excited when you're finally talking to a hot guy and then you feel like you're worth something because someone like him wants you. I used to know these feelings. Not anymore.
