An Open Letter To My Roommate

An Open Letter To My Roommate
Ashley Hontz

You know when you meet that one person who you instantly understand and who understands you? Well that is what happened when I got to college and found my person. Here are just a few of things that I want you to know.

You are my roommate and my best friend and I have no idea what I would do without you. When I'm asked to describe you, I simply say "She is an Angel sent from above." It's true because God has honestly blessed me with you.

You put up with my crazy and understand my babbling before I do. You are honest with me and have helped me through so much in this short time that I have known you.

It's amazing to me that I have only known you for less than two years. To me it feels like I have known you my whole life. We understand each other and we can tell each other everything.

Honestly I can't believe that you put up with my endless rambling from subject that range from the boy I like to what crazy thing happened to me that day (and let's be honest there is a new story every day). On that note, I am so blessed that you put up with my endless cycle of bad luck.

When I think of my future I know that you will be there. Mostly because I love you so much but partly because you know to much for me to let you go. You have become a part of my family and I will love you forever and always.

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.
