To My High School Sidekick

To the person who had my back for four straight years!

To My High School Sidekick
Tasha Lagueux

Every time you look back at your high school years you see this one person. They are your side kick, your best friend, and your person for those four years. I just decided to write an appreciation post for them, because maybe they don't get the love that they deserve.

To my sidekick,

You know who you are. I don't want to directly call you out, but by everything in this letter everyone will know who you are. Homeroom would have never been the same without you. Holy pooooooooop man. Every time you didn't show up was a little heart break. I was worried when you were sick and I was worried when you were even a minute late for talking to a teacher. We ran that homeroom. It was you and I against all odds. The first couple years we weren't so close but by the end of that second year, I knew we were destined for greatness.

We had a few classes together along the years and no matter what class it was we were goofing around and making eye contact and trying to send messages to each other. We had secret head nods and secret nicknames strictly staying between us two. The amount of times we both looked at each other and knew what each of us was thinking was one times to many, but it was great and amazing all in one.

When we got to senior year and picked the same exact classes was the best thing. It was like what classes do we have together? What was the homework? Shit we have homework, gosh darn. Every day was adventurous and wonderful. Going to school wasn't so bad anymore because we got to struggle with the same issues together. Basically every day was another adventure for us. Like oh what are we going to screw up now? The best part of the beginning of senior year was how you switched into my math class! Oh the good times!

We were double trouble and I knew that if I ever needed anything you were literally right beside me. Now as I sit in my college classes and, gosh, the real adult life, eww grosssss, I can't turn to my left, or right, and have you right there. You didn't come with me to this school and it sucks. I know your a click away, but you're not a seat away. I'm all lonesome up here without my person I had my entire high school career. It's not the same at all, but I'm doing good man, I'm figuring things out by myself! Haha, anyway I just wanted to say I miss you my side kick. Listen I know your going to say just text me you idiot, but I don't want to. I want to express my love for you here, so take it or leave it! (Please don't leave it man!)

You're the best part about my high school career. Knowing you were always there for me got me through a lot, you're amazing and deserve the world.


Love you forever,

your sidekick!

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.
