An Open Letter To The Best Roomie

College can be scary, but with a roomie as amazing as mine, it's a piece of cake.

The sweet smell of spring is in the air and "Senioritis" is in full swing. College applications are finally over and the new stress is all about finding the perfect college roommate, which thankfully, I did.

Hey roomie,

If you’re reading this, I love you. There’s no one else I would want to spend my first year in college with and I can’t express enough how lucky I am that you slid on into my Instagram Dms. Most people say that the transition into college life is rocky at best, but with you by my side, it was smooth sailing (once we finished rushing of course). Having a stranger become your roommate and then become your best friend is the best possible scenario in my mind for a college roomie.

They say college is hard, and they’re definitely not wrong, but with a friend like you, everything is simple. Waking up to you yelling at me to go to class, and going to bed with you still yelling at me to stop sending you creepy clown memes is a blessing a half. I know that wherever I go in my life, you’ll still be my sister and my best friend, and for that I am forever grateful. Besides, who else would listen to the same songs on repeat with me and who else would Milly rock with me to classical music? I mean, seriously, I don’t know anyone else who could fill your (Adidas) shoes. I also don’t know anyone who would make playlists for every possible mood or feeling that someone could have, or make Trillers with me to every possible Austin Mahone song.

Needless to say, you’re my person. You’re the Christina Yang to my Meredith Grey and the Blair Waldorf to my Serena Van Der Woodsen and I can’t express in just this letter how thankful I am for that. So, roomie, lover, sister, friend, thank you. Thank you for making me laugh and for not laughing when I cry. Thank you for coming with me to get food and for ordering cookies and ice cream for me at 11 pm when I need it most. Thank you for sliding into my Dm’s, thank you for playing bomb ass music, and thank you for being you.

Sincerely,

Me

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.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

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.
