A Thank-You Letter To My Amazing Boyfriend
Destinee Castillo

Dear boyfriend,

A million I love you's and thank you's will never justify how much you mean to me. Honestly, I never thought I would love you this much when I first met you my sophomore year in high school. I thought you were only going to be a friend. Oh boy, was I wrong. It wasn't until my late junior and early senior year did I realize what an amazing gentleman you were. We dated for what seemed to be forever. I'm sorry I made you wait one year until we officially became girlfriend and boyfriend, but it was worth it. During the year of dating, you never gave up on me and I knew you were reaching your limit. I'm sure you thought, "This girl only wants to date me." I cannot thank you enough for staying with me. If you gave up on me, I don't know where I'll be right now.

Three years later, you're my best friend and the love of my life. I can be a pain in the butt and you don't complain. You might make faces at me but I cannot think of a single moment where you have been upset with me. Thank you for making time in your day from picking me from San Marcos and taking me home. I know the drive can be a gas guzzler. I hope you know that I wouldn't want to hold anyone else's hand for an hour drive other than you. Thank you for letting me win our arguments. I can tell when you get frustrated with me and give up because I'm too hard-headed to take your side. Thank you for feeding me. I never know what I want to eat, but I somehow still get fed by you. Not only do I thank you for feeding me but thank you for always cooking and helping me in the kitchen. You are beyond supportive of me and everything I want to accomplish in life. When I'm indecisive about something, I can always talk to you about whatever it is that is on my mind. You've been with me through the crazy marching seasons, transitioning to college, and my grandfather's passing. I cannot thank you enough for everything you do for me. I love when we are in the truck and you reach across the console to grab my hand. In those moments, I cannot be more happy to call you my boyfriend.

Last but not least, thank you for choosing me. Thank you for sticking with me for a year before officially being together. Out of all the fishes in the sea, you chose me. I cannot thank you enough for blessing me with your existence.

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.
