A Letter To My Future Best Friend

Hey there! Well as of right now I am in my freshman year of college, and I’m struggling without you. I look around and it seems that everyone has found their “person," meanwhile, I have not. So this one is to you.

First I want to start off by saying I am sorry.

A friendship with me is work, and since you are taking on the role of being my best friend, you have some work cut out for you. I am loud, crazy, emotional and a little bit of a drama queen. I over think just about everything that happens, and I keep my anger bottled up so you will have to take my heat some days. I am terrible when it comes to hair and make up, so I will be constantly asking for your help. I will complain about gaining weight, and then ask you to go buy me cookie dough. I will hate boys, but constantly talk about how cute they are. The bottom line is, I am a handful.

But we will have more fun than you ever imagined.

There will be nights where I run into your room at midnight and say, “lets go on an adventure," and I hope you are the type of person to say yes. But if you don’t that is okay because that’s what is so cool about best friends, no matter what you are doing it will always be fun. I cannot wait for the Netflix marathons we will have when we don’t want to go out, and the crazy memories we will make when we do. From the family vacations I will drag you on, to the random road trips when we don't want to study. No matter where we are or what we are doing, my time with you will always be worth it.

All of this being said, I have had fake friendships. I have been stabbed in the back and had my trust broken. I have gone through the best friend break ups and I have cried many tears over them. And it is because of all these reasons that when I do find you, I will love you like you are my sister. I promise to be by your side at your happiest moments, and also when you just need to have a good cry. I have dealt with life with out you and I have gotten by, but it is so awesome to know that you are out there and life will be so much better when I have you going through life with me. I will have your back and stand up for you no matter what happens. I will always be your rock, sister, maid of honor, and yes, your “person."

So best friend...

You do not know this yet, but right now I am sitting alone in a dorm room praying that I find you soon. But until then, I love you and I can’t wait to meet you.

Love,

Your future best friend

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.
