5 Reasons Why You're My Person

I have always heard people say that they have " a person ", but I never really understood the meaning of that expression until I realized who mine is.

1.The Assurance

This person should have the ability to make you smile and laugh regardless of how much of a bad day either one of you have had. They ALWAYS remind you that all pain is temporary.. And even if it's not, they are there with you every step of the way until everything actually IS okay.

2.The Randomness

This part of our friendship is what I live for. Thank you for inviting me on frequent food, ice cream, shopping, and smoothie dates. It was during these times when I remembered exactly why you are my person in the first place.

3.The Selflessness

Thank you for always being willing to do whatever for me. Whether it was a 3 am ride, I time a needed something and had no clue how to get it, or anything in between.. You've never thought twice about giving me your very last.

4.The Times That We've Laughed Until We Cried

Genuine smiles, laughs, and an endless amount of goofiness. Rap and dance battles, pushing you off of the bed, and being a nuisance has been so much fun over the last few years. I am not too sure how I will survive in college without these things on a daily basis since they have the ability to turn my day from terrible to excellent.

5.The Support

Thank you for being there for every single one of my accomplishments and events - whether big or small. From birthdays, cheerleading competitions and step shows-- now to academic awards, senior banquets, and one of the biggest milestones in my life: High School Graduation. You have been there every step of the way and I could not be any more grateful to have a person like you in my life. I don't know how I could ever repay or thank you enough for all of these things.

If everyone hasn't guessed who I am talking about by now, it's my uncle- Bryant Tyson. This guy is seriously one of the most creative, kindhearted, and talented people I have ever met. Thank you for taking all of my pictures over the last few years and never complaining no matter how much I stress you out (Who am I kidding lol). I figured that the least I could do is dedicate a blog post to you since you are one of the reasons I started blogging anyway. I love you so much BJ. You are seriously the best uncle, male role model, and fill-in dad ever. I will miss tremendously once I leave for college. Please consider moving closer to Greensboro or at least visiting as much as you can.

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.
