7 Times You And Your Roommate Were Leslie Knope And Ann Perkins

Many times, your college roommates become your closest friends. In fact, they become more than friends--despite disagreements or frustrations, there's something about sharing a living space that brings you closer together like nothing else will. You develop a bond deeper than friendship, and although they may never be roommates in the television show Parks and Recreation, Leslie Knope and Ann Perkins are the perfect example of what best friend college roommates are like.

1. Asking each other for clothing advice:

Because you would much rather hear it from them and have them save you the embarrassment of wearing a bad outfit in public.

2. Spending so much time together that people mistake you for a couple:

Although truthfully, they probably know more about you than your significant other does. After all, the best conversations happen behind closed dorm doors at 1 a.m.

3. The bond and loyalty you share:

Your roommates become your family, and family comes first. Always.

4. Being able to rely on them when you're having a bad day:

You know that no matter what, they have your back. Sometimes you don't even have to ask for support--they know you well enough to know when you need some cheering up.

5. Pep talks:

Not only are they there for you, but you want to support and encourage them when they're feeling low, because they're awesome and need to be reminded of that sometimes.

6. Wanting to find them Mr. Right:

It's no easy task, because they deserve the very best, but you're up for the challenge. Because if anyone knows them well enough to find them a match, it's you!

7. Loving each other through the good, bad or the ugly:

There will be times when you don't get along and feelings are hurt. But through it all, you will always make amends, because you love each other and can't imagine life without them.

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.
