Best Friends From 500 Miles Away

You couldn't get rid of me if you tried.

Best Friends From 500 Miles Away
BuddyTV

Four years spent together in high school, seeing each other every day, in and out of school. Now? We get to see each other through Snapchats and the occasional FaceTime. There are only two breaks where we can be together in person, and in that span of time, we have to cramp in a years worth of adventures and conversations.

One of my biggest fears when I saw you leave for school was that we wouldn't be the same. I was terrified about what it would mean for our friendship that there would be over 500 miles between us. South Carolina and Maryland are a long ways away, and if I weren't so poor due to the college life, I'd spend all the money in the world just to visit you. Nothing makes me happier than the fact that our friendship hasn't changed. We still talk everyday, something that many friends are unable to do. We have a 100+ snapchat streak going and I can always expect at least one text a day. I know that you're always there for me, even when you take hours to respond. Nobody else could withstand my constant texts and, more often than not, really stupid comments.

I can always expect the occasional drunk call and God knows you will always get one from me, because there's no one else I'd rather talk to. I can tell you everything and anything, from the most boring of topics, like school, to the most interesting, like my drunk adventures. You know that you can always depend on me for whatever you need because you're my number one.


We've gone through so much in our seven years of friendship. A lot of ups and a lot of downs, but we've stuck together through it all. Nobody knows more about me, nobody has as much material for blackmail than you. I know I can't be easy to manage, I'm moody and loud, occasionally embarrassing, but you don't seem phased by it. The mistakes that I've made, not many people could forgive, but you're one of the kindest hearted people out there.


I'm blessed to be your friend. I'm even more blessed to still be able to call myself your best friend despite the distance between us. We've been through so many adventures together and have experienced so many things as a duo. Driving endless miles in absolutely no specific direction doesn't sound all that fun, but with you, it's probably one of the most fun things to do (well, maybe that just has to do with how boring our town is).


It never ceases to amaze me, and I know it amazes you too, that despite the amount of time we spend together, whether in person or through the phone, we never run out of things to say.

I love you so much best friend.

xoxo- Gossip Girl

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.
