5 Reasons I'M Thankful For My Roommate, As Told By "Parks And Rec"
Huffington Post

I seriously don't think I would have made it this far without you. There a million reasons why I'm thankful for you, but I didn't want to keep everyone here forever, so I narrowed it down to five that encompass my gratefulness (is that even a word? I should know this, we're going to be teachers).

1. The jam sessions.

All the way from freshman year, we would always be down to blast some SoMo, throwback Disney (yes, that was us blasting Nobody's Perfect at 1 a.m., judge us) and Justin Bieber (I know you're still judging). It was those late night "I'm not tired yet" nights where the music was too good and the memories were even better.

2. The late nights.

Remember that one time we all crammed in your tiny room pulled an all-nighter, because I had to write my English paper that was due the next morning? Good times. (Also the worst time in my life because I realized I cannot function on 3 hours of sleep.)

3. The words of encouragement.

Whether it's letting me know I'm gonna ace a test that I'm super nervous about, or just giving me the extra encouragement I need to go to class (ew), I know I can count on you to be that little voice in my head that gives me a push every now and then.

4. For all the laughter.

"Where?" "Is it velveeta Las Vegas?" and countless other time's we've just looked at each other and suddenly can't breathe from laughing, it always seems to come in right when I need it the most.

5. The love.

Even though we weren't roomies from the start, fate always knew we'd be the best of friends. I'm so thankful for all that you do for me, and all that you do for others. You are an amazing person and I am lucky to be able to yell across the room to annoy you.

BUT ALSO I'M FREAKING OUT BECAUSE WE ONLY HAVE ONE YEAR LEFT OF BEING ROOMIES AND WE CAN'T TALK ABOUT IT BECAUSE I'LL CRY.

Love,

your main bitch. :)

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.
