My Ex Best Friend

To my ex best friend who no longer is...

My Ex Best Friend
Nicole Ziolo

Dear Ex-Best Friend,

So much has changed since high school. Even more has changed since middle school.

I remember our long talks on the bus in middle school when we were forced to sit with each other. After a while we even realized we were in switch classes with each other. Then we noticed we had the same lunch. After a couple weeks went by, you would have never known we hated each other. We did everything together. Throughout middle school we seemed inseparable.

High school brought us closer. We used to hang out every day, take each others school bus home, everything. You're house quickly became my second home, and your family quickly became my family too. We laughed together, decorated rooms together, went midnight swimming on school nights together.

Other friends have come and go and for some reason you were still there. You were the first person I ran to at prom when both our dates blew. So we dropped them off and had our own fun. You were the first person I saw when we graduated, my family cheered for you and your family cheered for me. We did it! We made it through high school and we're still best friends.

Heck, we even dated another set of best friends together. Although that didn't end well were were there for each other through everything.

Soon, we went off to college. You went to one school, I went to another. We still stayed close.

Our first year of college passed and we slowly started fading apart. Our everyday texts turned into once a week texts.

Your new boyfriend hated me because I took time away from you two hanging out. So you blocked me out. Our weekly texts quickly turned to biweekly check ins.

Then you two broke up! I finally got my best friend back!

That was short lived though. You soon found another boyfriend. Soon I realize it's been months since I have talked to you. Texts go unanswered. Now it's been about 6 months since I have heard from you.

Our long conversations that we used to have were gone now. But I want you to know that I still cherish our friendship. Our secrets will remain between us. I love you to pieces still and miss you dearly.


Lots of Love,

Your Ex Best Friend.

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.
