An Open Letter to John Mayer
Alyssa Lee/ Avery Viditz-Ward

Dear John Mayer,

You are one of my all-time favorite artists. Not only are you musically gifted but you are handsome and funny (I know this through your tweets.) Honestly, being with you is just a win-win situation. I've listened to your music ever since I was in the fifth grade; the first song I was exposed to was "Waiting On The World to Change," and ever since then, I fell in love.

Your music has never failed to amaze me. I am obsessed with acoustic music and every time I listen to your songs, I fall in love with them all over again and get goose bumps. Your songs are that good.

After being a big fan of yours for the past couple of years, I can say that I love all your songs, but I have narrowed down my top 10 that I will never get tired of listening to.

1. Gravity

"Oh, I'll never know what makes this man, with all the love that his heart can stand, dream of ways to throw it all away"

2. Say

"Have no fear for giving in, have no fear for giving over, you'd better know that in the end, it's better to say too much than never to say what you need to say again"

3. Stop This Train

"He said, 'Turn 68, you'll renegotiate, don't stop this train, don't for a minute change the place you're in, don't think I couldn't ever understand, I tried my hand, John honestly, we'll never stop this train."

4. Slow Dancing in a Burning Room

"I was the one you always dreamed of, you were the one I tried to draw. How dare you say it's nothing to me? Baby, you're the only light I ever saw."

5. Free Fallin'

"She's a good girl, loves her mama, loves Jesus and America, too, She's a good girl, crazy 'bout Elvis, loves horses and her boyfriend too."

6. XO

"Your love is bright as ever, even in the shadows. Baby kiss me, before they turn the lights out. Your heart is glowing and I'm crashing into you. Baby kiss me, kiss me, before they turn the lights out, before they turn the lights out, ooh baby love me lights out."

Honestly, I just want to quote this entire song. IT IS SO GOOD.

7. Half of My Heart

"I was made to believe I'd never love somebody else, I made a plan, stay the man who can only love himself lonely was the song I sang, 'til the day you came, showing me another way and all that my love can bring."

8. You're Gonna Live Forever In Me

"But you're gonna live forever in me, I guarantee, it's just meant to be"

The whistling part is also amazing and I don't know how to whistle so... Also my boyfriend introduced me to this song, so shoutout to you.

9. Who You Love

"My boy ain't the one that I saw coming, and some have said his heart's too hot to hold, and it takes a little time, but you should see him when he shines, cause you never want to let that feeling go."

10. Dreaming with a Broken Heart

"When you're dreaming with a broken heart, the giving up is the hardest part. She takes you in with her crying eyes, then all at once you have to say goodbye."


You are a well rounded, good-looking, witty man. You are a beautiful soul, inside and out. And it's rare for me to call men beautiful. Truthfully, there are no words to describe how perfect of a human being you are.

If I ever got to meet you or see you perform, I would cry that ugly cry thats common of girls when they meet their celebrity crush.

John Mayer, if you ever read this, YOU ARE AMAZING AND I LOVE YOU.

"You kill me boy, xo" <3

With so much love,

one of your biggest fans, Alyssa Lee.

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.
