Dear best friends/future bridesmaids/soul sisters,

I love you guys. I am so grateful to have met you all.

We sit around talking about our future weddings and I start crying, because I can't believe I've actually found the people who want me as their bridesmaid and who I want as mine. We have an insane amount of fun doing something as simple as eating lunch at Panera, because when I'm with you guys it doesn't even matter what we're doing I'm laughing ridiculously hard. I get made fun of for being the sappy, emotional one of the group, but not nearly as much as you guys tell me how you actually really love that about me. You guys laugh at my dumb jokes and favorite my even dumber tweets, because we all have such similar senses of humor and I know I've found my friends for life.

It's almost scary how protective you guys are over me. When you told me not to give that guy another chance I should have listened. Still, I can come to you guys with any problem I'm having. I am never met with judgment. Okay, maybe there's a little judgement, but it comes from a place of love and care. No matter how many mistakes I make, you guys never make me feel bad about them. You give me unconditional love and sincere advice. There's no jealously or ulterior motives. We all want what's best for each other and support each other through everything we do.

I can't imagine how different my life would be without you guys and I hope I never have to. While I dread the day that we graduate from college and move to different places around the world, I also can't wait. I can't wait to see all the good that you guys do in the world and all the amazing things you accomplish. We might not all be living in the same cities as each other anymore, but it will be so fun to visit each other and take girls trips to new places around the world. We'll be like real adults flying on airplanes together and stuff!

Thank you guys for being such amazing friends. Thank you for always curling my hair every time I need to get dressed up, because you know I'm incapable of doing it myself. Thank you for listening to me worry about the same thing for the 100th time that day alone. Thanks for supporting me in my procrastination habits by watching Netflix in bed all day. Thank you for calming me down when I'm overthinking a simple text. Thank you for always being down to order Chinese food with me at one in the morning and then go get Ben and Jerry's after we ate all the Chinese food. Thank you for allowing me to spend way too much money at that store, because you swore it all looks so good on me. Thank you for always being there for me. No matter what and no matter where. I am so thankful you guys have come into my life and I can't wait to see what the world has in store for us. Thank you for being my closest confidants, my biggest support system, and the people I'm with basically 24/7.

Thank you for being my girl squad.

Love your best friend/future bridesmaid/soul sister

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.
