A Letter To My College Roommate
randomthinking

Dear Roomie,

First of all, I want to thank you first of all for having the patience to live with me, and secondly, I want to thank you for being you. I know this is going to probably be the cheesiest thing you ever read, but you are honestly the sister I never had and I’m truly blessed to have you in my life.

We’ve for sure had our run-ins from time to time, whether it be boys in the room, being more loud and obnoxious than usually (mostly me), or, heck, even just stupid little things like each of our messes getting in the way of each other. I’m sure there are many many more things I have done that I’m not aware of that are definitely worse than the things listed above and for all those things that I’m sure I’ve done. I just want to say I’m sorry. I’m sorry. I’m sorry. I’m sorry. I know you hate it when I apologize all the time, but you are one of the kindest, bravest, most deserving people I know and you deserve way better than me as your roommate, so, yeah, I'm gonna apologize. But I do hope you know that I love you so much because I really do even if it doesn't seem like it all the time.

Now that the semester of our freshman year is coming to an end, I’m looking back on our year and wish I could have been a bit more considerate of you, and I really don’t know how you have the patience to live with me. Spending summer without you everyday is honestly going to be so awful. I expect a FaceTime call at least once a week and I hope you know that even though we’ll be apart for a good three months that you can count on me to drive out of my way to come help you with anything you might need. I love you so much and I guess it’s cool that you’ll be my roommate again next year too! Remember that you are kind, brave, and deserving and that everyone deserves to have a friend like you!

Sincerely,

Your Roommate

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.
