An Open Letter To My Person In College

I Couldn't Have Asked For A Better Person To Get Me Through College

An Open Letter To My Person In College

I have met a lot of people in college, people who have changed my life, who have helped me through impossible classes, who are in multiple classes with me, and with whom I have built relationships with. As I am starting my senior year, I have realized the importance of finding your person in college, and what they truly mean. My life is truly changed for the better! I know that I have not taken the time to tell you what you mean to me and how thankful I am for you, so here goes nothing.

Dear Person,

First off, thank you, thank you, thank you, for coming into my life. It is no mystery that college is an extremely stressful and scary time for most people. The fact that you came into my life and actually chose to stay during this crazy stage, means the world to me.

Thank you for not leaving me during my crazy mood swings that came during midterms and finals week.

Thank you for the endless dinner/coffee/lunch dates that were supposed to be for homework, but ended up being a social date.

Thank you for letting me vent about assignments that I thought were silly, professors that seemed impossible, and classes that made me want to drop out of college.

Thank you for keeping me on track with my assignments. Lord only knows that I wouldn't have done all of my homework if you hadn't been there to keep me organized.

Thank you for getting to class early and saving me a seat in the front row because you know I can't see, nor pay attention if I sit anywhere else, and for being willing to sit in the front with me.

Thank you for sitting in the hallway with me before class, whether we are cramming for a test or just chatting, I value that time more than you know.

Thank you for accepting my laziness and driving me to my car even though it's in the same parking lot as yours.

Thank you for being on the same wave length as me. I seriously think we share the same brain...we can communicate through just a look. It's freaky and awesome...but freaky!

Thank you for always being on my side and rooting for me, exams, projects/presentations, and anything in between. I know that I will always have at least one cheerleader in my corner.

Most of all thank you for being you, MY person. You have gotten me through so many hard times in this stage of my life, some problems that you didn't even know about, just by being you and knowing that you're in my life helps me!

I am so glad that our paths crossed through this crazy time in our lives and I can only hope and pray that this relationship... sisterhood, can continue on for the rest of our lives.

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.
