The types of friends you run into in your day to day life.

3 Types Of Friends
Huffington Post

Throughout your life, wherever you go, you'll end up meeting friends along the way. These friends will often fall into one of these three categories.

1. The "Only for Two Hours" Friends.

Occasionally, you meet friends that you really believe are going to good friends. You think you'll enjoy hanging out with them for the day, maybe even the weekend, so you decide to have a sort of sleep over for a few days to cool off and have a good time. The car ride there is enjoyable; they listen to the same music as you (for the most part), they eat the same food as you so there isn't arguing when you stop for dinner. Then, you get to the house and start to sit down and relax, but they push you to do things you didn't really want to do in the first place. Throughout the whole weekend, you quickly realise they're the kind of person you can only spend a few hours with, but you're stuck in the house until it's time to go back home.

2. The Party Friends.

Then, there are the people that you meet at parties. You walk into the apartment or house and grab a red solo cup of beer and pound it back before beginning to socialise. The music is loud, and there are about 30 people in one room alone, so finding your way around the house is more complicated than it seemed pre-booze. Once you find someone that you can hang out with, you start to talk about your life and drink more booze, and then you eventually get into the drinking games together and plan out a spa weekend or game-day bar hopping trip. You go home and fall asleep with ease. When you wake up the next morning with a pounding headache, you look at your phone to see missed messages and calls from a name you don't remember, who happens to be your best friend from the night before.

3. Best Friends.

Best friends are truly what the name implies. These are the people that you met in the most random of situations and they just happened to stick with you since then. You either spend every waking moment talking to them and doing things with them, or you sit on your phones in the same room and don't talk for an hour, unless you're showing them something on Pinterest or iFunny. You either pretend to be on Iron Chef for the night and cook some extravagant meal, or you order in pizza and eat the entire thing in ten minutes. Best friends are the ones you feel most comfortable with and never have to go out of your way to have fun. You could live with each other and have no problem, and if you do, it's usually over something small and blows over within the next day.

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.
