In This Article:

When I started college there were so many things that I was excited for. For the most part, I was excited to finally leave my small town and be apart of a bigger, more open-minded community.

When I announced where I would be attending school, everyone from teachers to random people at the place I worked gave me advice on how to handle the transition. No one's advice ever prepared me for leaving my best friend, and living miles apart from her.

It's hard having a long distance best friend. The distance can be a huge obstacle. However, if you can overcome the miles between you, having a long distance BFF is actually the best. Having a long distance best friend is the best, and I would not ask for it any other way.

You Talk All The Time

I can't tell you how excited I get when I see my best friends name pop up on my phone. It might seem strange, but since my best friend and I have moved farther away from each other, we talk more. We make sure we talk to each other every day about all the crazy things that are happening in our lives.

When You Finally See Each Other, Your Hangouts Are Awesome

They get pretty lit.

One of the best parts about having a long distance best friend is your hangouts are an awesome time. Your hangouts consist of shopping trips and showing each other the best places in town. These hangouts are so meaningful because you don't know when you will see each other face to face again.

You Always Have A Shoulder To Cry On

It can be hard when everything seems to be going terribly for you. Whether you and your friends from school are fighting or you got a bad grade on your final your long distance BFF will always be there for you. She is the best person to give advice because she will comfort you, but also call you out when you are wrong.

You Know They'll Always Be There For You

Many of us are friends by chance, not by choice. We are friends with the people who we live with, or who we have classes with. Your long distance best friend and you have overcome the hardest part, the distance. This means you can get through anything together. No matter what, whether you are five miles a part or thousands you two will always be there for each other.

Never freak out about leaving your best friend, long distance best friends are the best. You guys will be just fine.

AI music threatens creativity

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

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.

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.
