35 Thank-Yous Your Awesome Roommate Deserves To Hear
Aren Buresh

When I first started college, I knew no one. Naturally, my roommate was the most accessible and potential friend in such an unfamiliar place. Randomly assigned roommates don't always work out, but I cannot tell you how lucky I got. After two semesters of living together, she is still the coolest, most thoughtful, and supportive roommate a girl could ask for. Anybody that loves their roommate knows there are about a thousand thank yous that need to be said at the end of the year, but here are 35 for starters.

1. Thank you for being my first and best friend in college.

2. For listening to me complain about my classes.

3. For watching dumb TV shows with me on Netflix.

4. For giving great advice.

5. For staying up late talking even though we both have early class.

6. For always being down to get food with me.

7. For leaving me notes when you left town for the weekend.

8. For having riveting discussions about the multiverse.

9. For introducing me to the multiverse.

10. For geeking out with me.

11. For buying me Capri Sun.

12. For being just as messy as I am and being totally chill about it.

13. For supporting me in everything I did.

14. For asking about my day.

15. For going to fun things like painting classes with me.

16. For understanding and accepting my weirdness.

17. For being weird, too.

18. For letting me borrow your stuff.

19. For contributing to my sock collection.

20. For never waking me up in the morning.

21. For being really chill about me waking you up in the morning.

22. For having the best conversations.

23. For introducing me to cool TV shows.

24. For noticing when I was upset.

25. For caring.

26. For letting me Facetime my family in the room for hours.

27. For going on adventures with me.

28. For allowing me to be myself.

29. For finally responding to the Facebook message I sent you before we even met.

30. For cracking me up.

31. For making memories with me.

32. For forcing me to watch horror movies.

33. For being extremely considerate.

34. For reading my mind (almost).

35. For being you.

I am beyond thankful for the roommate I was assigned and the amazing friend I've made. I'm glad I went random because I could not have picked anyone better.

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.
