A Letter To My Roommate Who Survives A Whole Month Without Me

Dear Roomie (aka Sarah),

Our first semester is coming to an end, meaning that you have dealt with my weirdness and goofiness for about a few months and yet you survived. I am known to be a quiet person and sometimes kind of hard to be open, but talking to you, I became a more open person and surprised to find out that we have more things in common than what I thought. You accepted many things about me that some people think that it's very weird of me to like it. We are very similar, but I'm just a little bit more crazier than you.

We met through Facebook during the "looking for a roommate" process because I know I didn't want to go through a random roommate. To find someone who is similar to me was amazing because it did help take the "home sick" feeling that comes and goes. Two Disney fans living in the same dorm was really fun, especially when either one of us were playing a random Disney song to sing along with. I will never forget that random Power Ranger conversation we had because some people have no idea the many series that they had. Our conversations in general were random, but always fun

You accepted the fact that I love anime and came in terms of me being a K-pop fan. To find out that you are also an anime fan just made me like you even more, even if you didn't know what anime was, I would've been introducing it to you for like the first two months of the semester. You had an idea of what K-pop was, which was alright with me, but I felt proud in myself that I got you into one group because of their catchy and addicting song, Blood, Sweat and Tears. All I have to do now is to get you to admit that you love Jimin, but that's a project that can be saved for another time.

Our walks, either in the afternoon or at night, were always fun because hatching eggs in Pokémon Go took a lot of time. Running into our band director because our music building is a gym always made me laugh. It was always fun hanging around you.

I thought it was going to be weird sharing a room with someone since I always had a room to myself back at home, but it was actually really fun. I'm glad we became roommates and best friends because you are like a sister to me. I always was with my brother back home, so it was nice to have you around. As I am leaving a day or two before you, I hope that you do well on your finals and that you have an awesome winter break. By the time you read this, you will be wondering when did I have the time to write this without you looking at my laptop. That is the type of skills that I have. Anyway, have a nice break, I will be texting you over the break and trying to get you into another K-pop group and see you in a month for basketball band.

From your goofy but loving roommate,

Destiny

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.
