A Letter To My College Best Friends

Every time you throw a piece of food at me I just love you even more.

A Letter To My College Best Friends

Never in my life did I expect to love someone so much that consistently wakes me up at 2 am. Every time you throw a piece of weird food at me I just love you even more. Going to college I was so terrified of what may come, but now I just laugh every time I think of our first awkward introductions. People say you'll find your best friends in college, and I had no idea how true that was until I met you all. There is nobody else in the world that I would buy pizza with at 1 am while we binge-watch Princess Diaries, again. You give me headaches, and you make my stomach ache for days from laughing too hard.

Through every up and down of college, there is no other group of girls I would rather share my life with. You make me feel alive, and constantly encourage me to be my best self. We keep each other in check, and make sure you don't respond to Chad's third snapchat of a beer despite how cute you think he is. We nurse each other back to health after having a little too much fun, and always have the voice of reason when you're convinced you broke your leg while doing a handstand.

Nobody else will understand our weird conversations and antics, but that's probably for the best. It doesn't even phase me when you lean over and ask me to examine the weird thing that has appeared on your skin. Thank you for always distracting me from study binges by sending me potato memes and the latest gossip about that girl Chad took to beach weekend and what her tattoo looks like.

There will come a point in our lives when we will have to go our separate ways, but I know we will always find our way back here to indulge in some hotiyaki wings and gossip about how that Chad kid is starting to bald. Our memories will always hold a precious place in my heart, and I will always remember the times I had with my greatest group of friends.

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.
