To My Friends From Home

Even though we have been separated by miles and miles of distance, I am so glad that we have stayed friends.

To My Friends From Home
fav.im

It’s been a while since I’ve seen you guys, but know that I think of you all the time. There are always moments in my day where I think “Wow, I wish they were here to share this experience with me,” but I know that you are all having fun at your schools too. I know we might not talk every day or keep up with each other’s lives as much as we used to, but you will always have a special place in my heart. I know that once I leave my college dorm, I get to come home to my best friends.

As the school year comes to an end, I just want to thank you for everything you have done for me despite the distance. Thank you for the late night conversations when I was a stressed out mess. Thank you for the random Facetime calls just to see what I was doing. Thank you for the hundreds of text messages blowing up my phone from the group text. Thank you for always putting a smile on my face when I tell you I had a bad day. Thank you for being my one ring pick up when I am in dire need of advice. Thank you for being my rock as I was finding myself in college. I could never thank you guys enough.

I am so excited to see you all! We have major plans for this summer and the anticipation is killing me. I am in desperate need of a break. I can’t wait for the concerts, late nights out, random McDonald’s runs and new adventures waiting for us. I miss the hot summer nights and riding in the car with the windows down while blasting our favorite music. I miss the sleepovers where we stayed up all night talking, laughing and of course, eating. I miss being able to drive 10 minutes and seeing your faces.

Even though we have been separated by miles and miles of distance, I am so glad that we have stayed friends. My college friends have really helped me through this year and I love them to death, but I know that I could not have done it without your support and love too. I couldn’t be more grateful for friends like you and we are going to make the most of this summer! Only a few more weeks left and I can’t wait.

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.
