Because sometimes girls are just too much to deal with.

6 Reasons Why Boy Roommates Are Better Than Girl Roommates
Zoe Sorrentino

Luckily for me, I have the pleasure of living with three of my very best friends. Two of them however, are guys. Yes, I also live with two men. While most girls would be opposed to the idea, I absolutely love my boys. These are just some of the upsides to male roommates.

1. They are always your go-to men.

Whenever you need advice or someone to talk to, they always have an open mind and a listening ear. Even though they may not know who Kate is or why it is relevant you share a similar love interest, they act like they do.

2. You always have a date for a dance.

If you cannot find a date and end up asking your roomies, of course they will not leave you hanging. They are the first ones to ask, “Does my tie match your dress?”

3. They make you laugh.

When you are feeling down, they always do the dumbest things just to put a smile on your face. They always want to see you happy and will make complete fools out of themselves just to see you smile.

4. They are your best friends.

You are together so much that people often think you are in a relationship. You are always happy and smiling when with them, but in reality they are just your roommates whom you wouldn’t be able to live without.

5. They know how to shower you with compliments.

If you ask them how you look that day, they will be completely honest and say “Damn girl, lookin fine.” Girl friends will be brutally honest with you and while that is much appreciated, it can also be unnecessary. Your guy roommate knows that the reassurance you receive from his compliment will brighten your day.

6. They love you more than they say they do.

Even though you tell your boy roommates how much you love them every day, they will always deny the fact that they love you. But at the end of the day, you are the only girl on their mind.

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.
