You're stuck with me.

Letter To My Bestfriend
Zavier Simmons

Best friend,

Let’s be real. I miss you of course. Now that the obvious has been stated, I'll begin. We’ve grown apart. We met in high school and had the best years of our lives. We did everything together and we were never apart for more than five seconds … then you graduated. You went away for college and I had to suffer one more year of high school.

Through our high school years, we did everything together. We were both in show choir, marching band, and madrigals together. We were inseparable (and still are ... that is NEVER changing). I was the first one to ride in your new car and vise versa. Before I got my own car, you insisted that I rode with you to and from school everyday instead of riding the bus because you would be SO lonely on the five minute drive to and from school. We lived right around the corner from each other - so we basically lived with each other. Whenever I had a problem at home you would invite me over and listen to me complain - no matter how ridiculous.

You would take me to school for costume fittings and other things that had absolutely nothing to do with you and for that I am SO thankful. You cared for me like I was your own in high school and then I had to figure out how to do life without you, BUT it was OK because all that did was prepare me for college.

Whenever I think about my future, I always see you in it. You are my maid of honor, my diary, my back bone, my lifeline, my love, my best friend. Even though we don't get as much time together as we used to, I love you and I love everything that you do. You are the best person in the world and one of the most important people in my life. Never change bb!

Though we’ve gone our separate ways, just know that I think about you everyday. You were and are still my muse. I love that even though we are both busy with college, you still take the time to call and text me to see how I’m doing. I love that I can still text you at three in the morning questioning if anything I’m doing is right, and you’ll assure me that everything will work out in the end. I love that even though we are becoming old women (LOL because very early 20's is SO old) we still have our inside jokes, even the ones from freshman year of high school.

Of course I have new friends. I met someone that is my you for when we can’t see or talk to each other, but don’t ever think that you are replaceable because you’re not. I remember when graduation came and I said to you “don’t forget about me!” and you looked at me like I was the biggest idiot in the world and said, “I could never forget about you b!”

With all this said, thank you for being you and sticking by my side through everything. I love you!

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.
