Just a friendly reminder that girls rock. 

We should feel empowered to do what we want, say what we want, wear what we want and be who we want. Often this isn't the case though. We feel pressured to be certain things and are mocked for expressing our individuality. It's a vicious never ending battle between exploring who we are becoming whilst also trying to fit into the rigid mould society sets for us. 

So here's what I'm trying to get at: Life's too short to not be yourself and not to live up to your potential. Don't ever feel like you are aren't good enough. Don't compare yourself to other people; comparison is a thief of joy. Don't give into your fears and go follow your passions. Be true to who you are and remember that you are braver than you believe, stronger than you seem, and smarter than you think.

I know I'm literally just spouting off the lamest cliches, but I really truly do mean all of them. So here's a toast to all the girls who steps out of their comfort zone, those who take risks and stick out from the rest. In the spirit of things I've created a playlist of some rockin' gals with killer vocals who have done just that.

Sorry folks, you will have to copy and paste the link, I'm not feeling too tech-savvy tonight to try and figure out how to embed the playlist.

Apologies if none of this makes sense - my brain is literally fried from hard-core studying and is also thinking about the episode of The Bachelorette I'm currently watching. 

Until next time,
