11 Benefits Of Living With Your Best Friends
Lauren Provost

There are several benefits to living with your best friends in college. People either love it or hate it because it either brings them closer or tears them apart because of differences in their life styles. I have had nothing but great experiences living in the same dorm as five of my really close friends. Here are some perks to living with your best friends.

1. You become more than just best friends, you become family.

2. You have multiple closets to choose from when deciding what to wear.

3. You always have someone to do stuff with you.

4. You have movie nights where you all can be lazy together.

5. You create a bond that can never be broken.

6. You will always have each other's backs no matter what.

7. They become the best support system you could ask for.

8. Going back to the dorms feels like home.

9. It is always a judge-free safe environment.

10. You will share endless memories and inside jokes that will last a life time.

11. They can be your mom, best friend, life-coach, and therapist whenever you need it.

Thank you to my roommates for making living away at college one of the most memorable and fun experiences life will ever have to offer me.

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.
