Dear Ellie, You Aren't Just My Roommate, You're My Best Friend
Katelyn Doherty

Dear Ellie,

Thanks for being my roomie, my best friend, and my personal therapist. The list could go on, but you're my person and I'm sure you already know. Warning you now this is about to get real sappy and real corny, I'm sorry. I remember the first time you messaged me on instagram asking me to be your potential roommate. I was shocked, and extremely excited because I stalked your instagram hard core. I thought you were so freaking pretty and so chill, you were the perfect college roommate. I later found out that you asked me to be your roomie because you appreciated my tooth gap, and loved my Birkenstocks. The friendship was meant to be. Once we started messaging, we instantly clicked and our friendship grew from there.

From the endless ugly snapchat photos, to the paragraph texts complaining about everything, we became really close and the move in date came even closer. I was nervous to move into college but knowing I already had my best friend, it made life so much easier. I knew it was going to be the best year of my life when we managed to match our room decorations without trying. We connected on so many things, and continue to. It's great to have someone who understands me but can also keep me in line when I'm being too sassy. We both know my sass is out of control some days.

Thanks for being my roomie and for most importantly being my person. I don't think I could have survived this first year of college without you. We've made so many amazing memoires and I can't wait to make so many more! I would never want to finish an entire pizza, scream in the hallways, make up Portlandia skits, be cheer captains, watch Spongebob, cry over nothing, talk about chicken nuggets, obsess over honey mustard, or watch conspiracy theories with anyone else. Or have anyone else chase me with worms....I love you bitch.....I ain't ever gonna stop loving you...biiiiitch.

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.
