A Letter to my Roommate

Dear roomie,

It's been about three months since we moved in together, and it's amazing how we haven't gotten tired of each other yet. It's because of you that I can get through every day, because I know that I will be coming home to someone who will laugh with me about the things I was stressed out about the day before. Here are some of the reasons why I love being your roommate, and why I am thankful to share a tiny space with such a great individual.

1. You put up with my craziness:

Life can be stressful, but you always know how to react to my craziness. You not only support me in my decisions, but you also are there to make sure I stay on track. You are always there at the end of the day to remind me that I don't need to stress and that I will pull through the semester.

2. You are always thinking the same thing as I am:

Somehow, being roommates means we become telepathic. I'm happy to have someone who always has the same mind track as I do. You always know how to communicate with me, even if it's just by giving me a weird look.

3. You are there, even through the hard times:

Somehow, even on the hardest days, you know how to make me laugh. You allow me to see things in a different perspective, and really help me get through each day. You always make sure I am happy before the day ends, and you make sure I actually get up in the morning to go to class.

4. You're always a phone call away:

Sometimes I do really embarrassing things and I need to call someone and tell them about it. Lucky for you, you are the person I always need to talk to. When I go home for the weekend, you're the person I call when I get bored. You always pick up your phone, even if it is just me being stupid on the other end of it.

5. You don't really have boundaries with me:

When we live at such close quarters, it's hard to really make boundaries. Nevertheless, I'll sit in your bed at 2 am watching movies with you. We never really grow tired of each other, even if we are always up in each other's business.

6.You have my back:

No matter what happens, my happiness is at your best interest. If someone was ever hateful toward me, I know you would be the first one to stand up for me.

7. You are just as weird as I am:


I'm thankful to live under the same roof as someone who has the same sense of humor as I am. I'm happy when you laugh at all of my jokes, and I think everything you say is hilarious. We have more inside jokes than I can count, and I am happy to know that when I am in my room, I will always be laughing.

8. You are the perfect roommate for me:

Thanks for the long nights, the great memories, and the amazing friendship that we are just starting. I know that we still have a lot of time left as roommates, and I wouldn't want to spend that time with anyone else but you. Even though live can be crazy and overwhelming, I'm happy to be living with someone as amazing as you.

Love,

Your roomie

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.
