15 Reasons Why You Should Live With a Guy at Least Once in Your Life

When I first rushed my sorority I knew I wanted to live in house. A huge mansion with all of my sisters? It was a huge selling point for the house I chose, and of course I lived in house my sophomore year of college. And it was a blast. I made tons of memories with those girls, and I learned a lot about myself. But after that I realized I needed a change of pace. Well, I always loved Friends, and I was so jealous of Rachel and Joey's living situation! It seemed like a lot of fun, and really chill. A couple of my guy friends were already planning to live together, and needed another roommate. So I figured, why not? Not to say it hasn't been tough. Boys are NOT girls. Even if they're just friends, they're still guys. And that has been a huge adjustment. Boys act a certain way around girls, but I got to see first hand how boys act when the girls go home. For two semesters, I got to go from being a “girl", to being a “bro". Looking back, I compiled a list of 15 reasons why you should live with guys at least once in your life.

1. There's always food.

2. They don't get (too) mad when you wake them up in the middle of the night.

3. They won't judge you for eating ice cream at 9 AM.

4. In fact, they won't judge you at all.

5. At least not openly ...

6. Xbox, PlayStation, gaming stations you didn't even know existed, etc.

7. You always have someone to kill the spiders.

8. They are never emotional.

9. Their girlfriends like to cook and clean (so you don't have to).

10. They are always down to play beer pong.

11. Sometimes they even let you win :)

12. They will actually tell you if you look fat or not.

13. They will tell you when your boyfriend is a piece of $h!t.

14. And when you should break up with him.

15. And lastly, they have hot friends!

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.
