10 Reasons Your Best Friend Is Your Best Friend
Shelby Alldred

Whether you have known them your whole life or just met them five minutes ago, your best friend is hands down the best person to walk this planet. Here are just 10 of the many reasons why they're you're biggest blessing.

1. You never have to get food by yourself.

If you go through your saved text messages, 90% of them are probably something along the lines of "Do you want to go get food?" or "Are you hungry?" At least if you gain the freshmen 15, you'll do it together.

2. They're the only person on the planet that you think is as funny as you.

Let's be honest, everyone else's jokes just seem mediocre.

3. If the opportunity comes, they will lie for you on the spot. (without even being asked or knowing the situation).

You all know the situation I'm talking about.

4. They're always there to remind you how great and awesome you are.

No matter how bad you think you've messed up, your best friend will always think you're the greatest human being to walk the planet.

5. ... And also there to give you a friendly reminder when you aren't acting so awesome.

It's not always what you want to hear, but it's usually necessary (and out of love).

6. You have more fun with them completely sober than most people do while not sober.


You could be stranded in the middle of the desert for a week and would still find a way to have an absolute blast.

7. You didn't know separation anxiety was a thing until you met them.


A day without them is basically like a chicken running around with its head cut off.

8. If you're dating someone, they're dating your best friend, too.


Everything you do or say, my best friend will know within three seconds.

9. They are just as much apart of your family as you are.


Your family considers them family and vise versa. Honestly, they might as well be in your family photos.

10. Most importantly, life would totally suck without them.


They're your person. End of story.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
