A Letter To My Best Friends
By: Maureen Logan

Dear best friends,

Thank you. Thank you so freaking much for being everything that you are, you are my clone but yet you have so many unique differences than me at the same time. Without you life would be so unbelievably boring and bland, even though there’s a whole lot of nights where we are just sitting in the car waiting for plans to magically appear, that rarely do, you still make it that time 100x better than being alone. Thank you for being fake “boyfriends” because we are independent women who don’t need a man (but really we just can’t find boyfriends). Still, a Valentine Day spent with you is one I will always cherish because our movie nights, girls wine nights, and date nights are unbeatable.

Thank you for telling me that I look good when I freak out and decide I don’t want to go out because I have no party clothes and I don’t want to put on makeup. And then, thank you for telling me I look like a homeless person and should really start wearing clothes that I didn’t self- proclaim gender neutral. Thank you for just hanging out, helping me with errands, going to get food, because all the time I am able to spend with you is amazing. We get in fights like sisters and yes I admit sometimes I can be bossy/mean but you still love me, and I love you for that. And thank you for saying the hard facts to me that I don’t want to accept, and being there when I have fallen short.

Thank you for always making me laugh when I need it, or at least letting me laugh at you because of some stupid thing you did one time ages ago and I won’t let you live it down. Thank you for being so awkwardly weird with me and accepting me no matter how weird I get. And trusting me enough to have the most ridiculous videos of you singing and dancing on the kitchen floor because you know it brightens any bad mood of mine. Thank you for dancing around like idiots, being incredibly embarrassing, doing squats down the hallway, and just talking to me constantly throughout every day. Thank you for screaming “hello” with me in the car as if we are actually better than Adele and everybody at the red light wants to hear us sing the high note. Thank you for being sneaky little bad role models and making me go out of my comfort zone and live a little bit on the crazy side, and for tagging along with me when I have crazy last minute ideas.

But most of all, thank you for always being there. You are the only people that I can tell literally anything and everything to and I would be nowhere in life if I couldn’t talk to you every day. Please stay in my life forever, because I couldn’t live without you, you are one of the best things to ever happen to me.

I wouldn’t be me if I didn’t have you, so thank you so very much to my best friends.

I abso(freaking)lutey 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.
