500 Words to My Froomies

To the ladies I will live with for the next two years, I love you both more than I love avocados, and that's saying something!

500 Words to My Froomies
Kelly Mahaffy

Ab and Em,

We have been preparing for this for SO many months now. Soon, we will be living together and we will be roomies and all will be good in the world. I am so excited to return to school, fight over apartment decorations, and finally feel like an adult in our real life apartment. I know this summer will feel long, however, because you two, my two best friends, are not with me for the summer. All school year, we have known we would be living together. We have planned, talked, fought a little bit, and have all experienced our excitement build with every day that passes. You two have become my rocks, the people I turn to for everything, and now you are at home hours from me. Who else understands my weird sense of humor? Who else would threaten the Beta’s that currently live in our apartment with me? Who else understands what a big decision my K-cups are? The three of us are like three peas in the nicest pod of an apartment ever, but unfortunately we still can’t be that quite yet. We have a few more months to wait.

While we are at home, alone, waiting, I have realized just how much you two mean to me. You two are so much more than my froomies, you are the only people I can be honest with about exactly how I feel about furniture, decor, and everything else in our lives. You two get the good and the bad of being neighbors with our favorite fraternity house like no one else. You know by just a look when I’m having a horrible day, when I am absolutely happy, and every other emotion. I am so happy that in three short months the three of us will be living together, but until then, I will just be sitting here in St. Louis planning every little detail of our apartment and missing you two!

No matter what happens in our apartment, I am so happy to know that we will be okay. We may (will) fight a little bit about how to set things up, what all we need, and whose furniture goes where, but no matter what we will make it through. We will ALWAYS be friends first roomies second. Froomies is more than just a misunderstood word to us, it is the truth! I know that The Babe Cave will be the absolute best apartment in Kirksville because it will be us three! What could be better than that? We will have the best two years of our lives in 910, that's for sure, now we just have to hurry up and wait to get there August 1st.

Three months is officially too long to wait, however, we will make it and soon enough we will be back in KVegas having the time of our lives watching movies, eating popcorn, and drinking pink wine every night. I love you both so much, miss you terribly, will continue to send you EXTREMELY ugly snapchats, and can’t wait three months to start the best time of our lives!

Love Always,

Kel

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.
