Being Reunited With Your College Best Friends After The Holidays
The Odyssey

Winter break is over? Weren't we just crying and stressing over finals last week? The thought of going through all the tears and stress again makes me want to sleep even more. On the bright side, the week we've all been waiting for is finally here: being reunited with our college best friends. The annoying, clingy text messages can now stop because you'll be able to annoy each other in person. The spring semester is the season for pool parties, formals, fraternity weekenders, and music festivals-- all which you can do with your best friends. No more sitting in bed watching Snapchat stories of people doing crazy shenanigans. No more binge watching Grey's Anatomy and Gilmore Girls by yourself because now you'll be able to do those things with your friends. I think we're all ready for a fun and memorable semester with our girls.

The reunion: excitedly yelling when you see each other

If we thought being separated a week during Thanksgiving was a long time, well, Winter break was even longer. The feeling of being reunited is the most exciting and anticipating moment.

Catching up and not leaving a single detail out

All conversations start with, "How was your break? Tell me everything!" I think we all like to fast-forward through the talk about family vacations and get to the good stuff. Though your college best friends might not have grown up with you in the same hometown, they like to keep updated about the drama that happens there.

Wine nights

Heart to heart conversations? Drink wine. Bad day? Drink wine. Girls night? Drink wine. Don't have a special occasion to drink wine? Drink it anyways. Girls love wine. Trust me, we don't only buy 2 or 3 bottles. Each person in the group gets their own bottle. It's more fun that way.

Spring Break planning is already in the process

Havasu? Mexico? California? It all sounds like a fun time. As a college student, spring break is one of the best times to let loose and where you choose to spend will make or break. Let's be real, your best friends can make this week a fun time no matter where you all decide to go. Don't forget the occasional drama.

Endless photos

Every group of friends takes a reunion photo when they see each other. We take photos for every occasion. It's what we do. During syllabus week, we take photos every day. Believe me, our iPhones are filled with embarrassing and great photos of each other.

Pool party season. Need I say more?

What are the two most feared words in the English language? Pool Party. The week you get back to college is the week you and your girls go to the gym to get in shape. Time to show off the new bikinis you've all been dying to wear. Pool party season is one of the best parts of Spring semester, no doubt. Get ready for the nonstop Instagram posts. We're in for a fun time.

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.
