An Open Letter To My Uber Driver(s)

...for all the times I didn't say thanks.

An Open Letter To My Uber Driver(s)

Nine times out of ten when I'm out and using my phone I tend to be doing more harm than good (i.e.: overly enthusiastic Instagram comments…121 second snap stories). However, now that Uber has come to campus I can finally put my phone to good use.

Now, I understand Uber basically goes against everything I was taught as a child – don't get in a car with a stranger, but for real these people have quickly become my guardian angels. I'd like to take this time to give a huge S/O to Uber drivers.

Y'all have tolerated more in one ride with my friends than any normal person should have to deal with in a lifetime. Thank you for always being there for me whenever I fall (literally). Thank you for always being just a click of a button away.

To my Uber driver that got mad at me for being 15 minutes late to come outside from the function last week – thank you for being so gullible and believing me when I convinced you that the app said your car was a different color and I was just lost finishing my drink.


Thank you for driving us to a gas station to get more supplies on the way to the pregame...


Thanks for always being such a good listener… even against your own will.

To my Uber driver that picked me up from the tailgate lot – and gave me a bottle of water [you the real MVP].


Thanks for letting 9 of us cram into your Honda Civic.

Thank you for letting me set my form of payment to PayPal. (Sorry mom.) #blessed

To my Uber driver that took me through Cook Out, I'm gonna go with a thanks, but no thanks on that one. I definitely didn't need that tray at 2 a.m. with a quesadilla, burger and chicken nuggets a week before spring break, but I appreciate the effort for sure.



In addition to thanking y'all that just so happens to be exaaaactly where I need you to be at the right time, I'd also like to say sorry to my friends. Sorry for all the nights I randomly disappeared and you thought I was dead but really took an Uber home somewhere.

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.
