A Letter To My High School Friends

Thank you for all the memories.

A Letter To My High School Friends
Alison Moore

Well, hello there, stranger.

How have you been? It is hard to believe we have been out of high school for about a year now. I remember we were all stressing out about the ACT or SAT so we could get into that dream college of ours. We would constantly think that we ran the school and could do what we wanted whenever such as roaming the halls when we were supposed to be in class. Senior year was something that I will always remember thanks to all of you. You filled it with many memories.

It is so weird that we barely even talk now. We keep up with one another on social media accounts such as Facebook, Twitter and Instagram. We occasionally comment on something one of us has posted, and that is when all the memories come flooding back. Just this week I have been seeing all of y'all's pictures from your amazing times on spring break. I sometimes wish we would have kept in touch better over this past year. We all were told that you will most likely lose touch with you high school friends and unfortunately, I have seen that that is true.

I hope you are doing well. Since we barely talk anymore, I have no clue what all you have experienced and went through without me. Its crazy how we go to pending all of our time with the same people for four years and then after a year at college, we have made completely new friends and barely speak.

The memories from cheerleading games, classes when we did absolutely nothing in and lunches that we had the weirdest conversations at will forever be engraved in my memory. The endless number of pictures I took throughout the years will always be available for me to reminisce on and think back the days when all we cared about was the latest gossip about who was dating who and what we made on the easy little test.

As we all now by now, high school is nothing compared to college. The one class we thought was so tough in high school is our easiest in college. I hope you all are succeeding in your college career and if not, it is OK. College is tough, and as long as you are trying your absolute hardest, it will be worth it.

Lastly, I want to thank you. Thank you for giving me the best high school experience a girl could have. Thank you for being there for me when I needed you and being amazing friends. Hopefully we will all catch up soon but for now keeping up with y'all on social media will have to do. Keep striving to do your best and do not let that guy/or girl ruin your college experience. Take in every moment you get and do not be afraid to put down those notes you have been studying for hours and go make new memories for you to remember forever.

Love,

Your high school 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.

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.
