Hello, it's me.

A Ballad For My Roommate


*MUST BE SUNG TO THE TUNE OF HELLO BY ADELE*


Hello, It's Me.

I was wondering if you were gonna take out the trash this week

It's overflowing and stinks

I know we agreed upon alternating,

but it looks like thats not happening


Hello, are you ignoring me?

I'm in my room, and I can hear your 6th season of Friends starting

I know, Rachel's amazing

but I'm trying to study for a test in Calc III and Quizlet isn't helping any


Did you eat my leftover pizza, I was saving

That's really annoying


Hello, from the front door

You must've knocked a thousands times

because your drunk a** is sorry for forgetting your key

but I'm sleeping and you need to learn responsibility


Hello, from the hall bathroom

I'm tardy to class and you can tell from my breath

that I haven't brushed my teeth because you hog the shower

but it don't matter clearly because it's steamy in there and I'm late.


Hello, where are you?

The Bachelor starts in ten minutes and I'm not waiting, I'm sorry

I hope that you bring wine

Last time we had to share, and I did mind


And it's no secret that the both of us

are close to losing our minds


So, hello from the laundry room (laundry room)

I swear to God if you take my clothes out of the dryer (dryer)

I'll kill you, because they're still damp

and I plan on wearing that out tonight


Hello from the living room (living room)

At least I can say that I've tried (I've tried)

To tell you to clean up before rent is due

But it don't matter clearly, there's still a sticky substance on the table


(Highs, highs, highs, highs,

Lows, lows, lows, lows)

Roooooommmatteee


Hello, from the other side (other side)

You must've called a thousand times (thousand times)

To tell me you're sorry for eating my food

But it's too late roomie, because I can't even anymore


Hello, from the outside (outside)

At least I can say that I've tried (I've tried)

To tell you I'm sorry, for wanting to evict you

But it don't matter clearly because I warned you before we moved

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.
