To My Best Friend Who Was A Stranger To Me Six Months Ago,

I don’t think I’ll ever be able to thank you enough for befriending me. You’re one of most honest and kindest people I’ve ever met. You inspire me to go after my dreams and do what I can to change the world. You’re so incredible and I’m so happy to have you as a best friend.

I didn’t know that one conversation would impact my life so greatly. But that one conversation formed our friendship and I will forever be thankful that I talked to you on that first day of orientation. It’s crazy to think that I didn’t know you six months ago when now I can’t even go a day without talking to you. I love the variety of conversations we have from classes to the Kardashians to giving advice and everything in between.

People always say that you’ll meet so many new and amazing people in college. But I never realized how true this was until I went to college and met you. I can’t even remember what life was like before I knew you. I can’t remember not texting you about the latest celebrity news. I can’t remember not going to Starbucks and Target with you every weekend. I can’t remember what it was like before I had you as a best friend.

I can’t even imagine what Summer Break is going to be like. It’s going to be so weird not seeing you every day. I’ll definitely miss our conversations and adventures. I’m already looking forward to meeting up during the summer for concerts, shopping, and looking for decorations for our apartment next year.

Our friendship is one of kind and it’s definitely something that I’ll cherish for the rest of my life. It’s not too often that you find someone so alike you and I didn’t expect to find someone so similar to me at college. But then I became friends with you and whenever we’re together people say we are pretty much the same person. We have the same sense of humor, we like the same type of music, and we are both addicted to Starbucks. So thank you for being my other half.

I don’t know who else I’d take endless, ugly Snapchat selfies with, go to the cafe at 10 pm with, talk about the latest celebrity gossip with, travel to England with, obsess over every musical artist with, and experience my time at college with. I can’t wait for the next three years together and I can’t wait to tell stories about all of the amazing times I had in college because of you.

So thank you for befriending me six months ago, life wouldn’t quite be the same without you.

Love you lots.

Sincerely,

Your Best Friend Who Is No Longer A Stranger

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.
