10 Things You Do When Your Best Friend Visits
Grace Nesseth

Everybody meets their best friend in college, and if you’re unlucky like me, they probably won’t live even remotely close to you. But, don’t you fret after all the long phone calls, text messages, and countless silly snapchats you’ll finally get to see her in the flesh when she comes to your home town.

Here are ten things you do when your best friend comes to visit you.

1. Hug Each other for approximately an hour before her car has even been turned off

After waiting outside for five minutes while you wait for her to pull into the driveway, you both come lunging for each other and giggle like nervous school girls because you can't believe the time has really come. YOU'RE TOGETHER!!!

2. Spend hours upon hours talking about all the things you missed and everything you plan to do

Even though you have spent all of your time texting each other you still spend hours talking about boys and everything you are going to when you get back to school in the fall.

3. Eat way too much

You are going to eat 8 meals a day and a snack every ten min. Don't fight it.

4. Spend all your life savings

Movies, restaurants, snacks, and shopping, duh.

5. Pretend you’re on vacation too

Go ahead and justify all the food you're eating and the money you're spending is because you're basically on vacation since she is here.

6. Introduce her to everyone who sees you

Every person you walk by will know that she is your best friend from college.

7. Take Her to all the best places in town

Plan your days to give her the best tourist vacation of all time

8. Cry over chick flicks

You finally have someone to go to the theatre with and cry with you rather than getting made fun of by your boyfriend.

9. Cry over the time coming to an end

It has been the shortest three days ever, and you are not even slightly prepared for her to leave again.

10. Rejoice because you have a friend worthy of crying for

Not everybody has a friend that they are able to share these special moments with. Embrace every memory and never lose touch.

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.

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

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.
