THE IGLOO

Three weeks and it is still hard to say goodbye to Parks and Recreation. 

Frequently, I hear people say the words "I can't trust anybody." I also hear teenage boys utter the overused statement "These hoes ain't loyal." Okay, teenage boys, we understand how much trust and loyalty actually means to you in a relationship, (scarcely), but let's not use derogatory terms while referring to girls, alright? Anyways, the more I grow up and become aware of my surroundings, I begin to realize that trust is essentially a thing we all should have for at least one person in our life. It's a nice and reassuring feeling to have a good friend, right? Being able to trust that friend, (or in my case, hair stylist), is a pretty similar feeling. I mean, I'm not trying to imply that you should trust just anyone with your life or anything like that. It is just that maybe giving people chances to gain your trust is a healthy and cool thing to do. Trust is a matter that is one of the few bases to maintaining relationships, especially with your parents or significant other. Trust is good, but sometimes giving someone too much of it could make relationships unsteady. But if a friend seems to give you a certain amount of trust, like confiding secrets in you, it's always nice to give the same amount of trust in return. That's only if you are comfortable, of course. I think trust should be a balance. If trust is a significant "feature" in a relationship, balanced trust between two people could keep them on the same page.- See more at: http://igloozine.com/article.php?id=108#sthash.f5uQgUnT.dpuf

Whether you're alone at home or at some spooky party, this mix is great!

Girl Rising is a global campaign for girls’ education, using the power of storytelling to share the simple truth that educating girls can transform societies. A 2013 film was released under the same name and tells the stories of 9 girls living in 9 countries. I have grown up in a world where education has been readily available to me, so when I got the chance to sit down and talk with Girl Rising’s Campaign Director Samantha Wright and Grassroots Partnerships Manager Laura Roberts about the education of girls globally, I took it as quickly as I possibly could.
