An Open Letter to my Long Distance BF/GF
Abby Krysczak

Dear BF/GF,

I really miss you. That’s the first thing I can think about saying because it’s the first thing I realize when I wake up in the morning and the last when I go to bed at night. I miss looking you in those big blue eyes or kissing you while we’re watching Glee. You’re all I think about and you’re all that my mind seems to be consumed with. Good thing is I know I will see you soon and I know that this distance will not be a factor to alter our relationship.

No one ever said long-distance relationships were fun and no one ever said that they would be easy. What everyone considers long-distance is different to each person, but for me I consider our two-hour separation long distance. It’s not just twenty minutes away anymore and seeing each other can’t be done at the drop of a hat. This is something we’ve had to accept time and time again. But I can definitely say that you’re worth it. You’re worth the hard nights and the crappy days because when I finally get to see you, whether it’s the next week or the next month, it’s more than I could have ever hoped for.

This distance also has given us both the opportunity to grow as individuals, while seeing the big picture. It’s given me time especially to come to terms with my anxieties, to accept things I cannot change and to love you more through those things.

I do want to just say that I really do love you. I know I tell you all the time over our hour-long FaceTime calls or in a SnapChat selfie, but I really truly love you. You make life so exciting and you give me exactly what I need. I never thought I would know what I want forever at this age, but I know what I want and need is you. I hate being two hours apart because you know me, I’m needy and my back needs to be rubbed at least two times a week or I’m crabby and I miss you when I’m going out and doing something fun because I automatically know it would be more fun with you there. But no matter what, I still love you.

Thank you for putting in just as much effort as possible, because without both of us contributing, it just simply wouldn’t be half as amazing as it is. Thank you for staying up with me on the phone for hours some nights when I’m sobbing about how much I miss you. Thank you for surprising me sometimes and coming here when I least expected you to. Most importantly, thank you for loving me unconditionally even if we are two hours away.

I love you so much. XOXO

Love always,

Me.

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.
