High School Friendships vs. College Friendships

High school friendships are what got you all through your four years of what may have seemed like at the time, the worst four years of your life. These friendships were the reason why you had a smile on your face at the end of the day. As you grew from a 14 year old freshman to an 18 year old senior, you all created crazy and hysterical memories together. You never knew that in just one short year, you would drift away from your so called "best friends forever." This is the part of growing up that is always going to be the hardest. You will keep some of your high school friendships, but unfortunately, it's almost impossible to keep all of them.

You all are going in different directions, and no one can change that..so things change on their own. You lose touch and stop texting each other every day to find out the latest gossip. You will soon find new friendships in college that will completely change the way you look at the world around you. These new friends will teach you so many new ways on how to live. These people will be coming from all over the country/world. You never know who you are going to meet in college, and that is the most special part.

College can be a scary place at first. You're more than likely going to be alone and you might know a person or two from your hometown, but you will be faced with creating a whole new friend group. You will soon find out that the friends that you become with during your four years of college will be more similar than not with you. Whether it be interests in clubs or sports, your college friends will just get you right from the start.

Just like high school, your four years of college will fly by and be over before you know it. This is why it is crucial to make the best of these four years and befriend the people who you know you couldn't do life without. Make hundreds of memories together, laugh together, cry together, do everything together. These friends will be your forever 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.
