A Open Letter To My College Best Friends

Hey y'all,

So you know that group that everyone knows? The group that people know when they see one they are going to see all seven of you? The group people don't try to become really good friends with because they know "no new friends" (inside joke).

Well that was me and my friends throughout college. I met these crazy, loving, and unpredictable girls second semester of my freshman year. It was one of those things where you needed a new roommate and kind of knew someone from high school and thought why not? Well, little did I know that she had an amazing group of friends that would later be my best friends.

Whenever I am feeling down, need advise, or just simply want to talk I know I can count on these girls whether is 5 o'clock in the evening or 2 in the morning, someone is always awake. And if you're not, well you will be because we have a group text that is never ending. I am serious, put seven girls in a iPhone group chat and see when it stops. Hint: it doesn't. But that is what I love about it.

Fast forward to four years later, we are about to graduate, I cannot believe it. We go to school in Indiana and parting ways is not going to be easy. I am moving to Tennessee, three of the girls are from Indiana, and the other three live in the Chicago area. I have spent almost everyday, literally, with these girls and in eight short months everything will change.

Although I'm sad about leaving everyone it gives me a chance to look back on the last four years of my life. Everyone says college is the best years of your life, and it is completely true. College has given me my future bridesmaids, best friends, and people I can count on, even if we are states away.

I can't thank these girls enough for simply being them. People think we are crazy, but that is why I love them. I look back and recount the nights in Warren Hall (our dorm) and all the shenanigans, friendsgiving every year, camping, everyone turning twenty-fun, and now graduation. They say girl friends are made because one mom couldn't handle us all, well isn't that the truth. I am so blessed and thankful to have found my best friends and cannot thank UIndy enough for bringing us all together.

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.
