Dear Cool Guy,

I have learned many things in college, and one of them is that you never know who you will meet. You meet people wherever you go. The best encounters happen from spontaneous plans. You are the one who made me realize all this. Thank you for coming, and for taking the time to introduce yourself. However, I wish I had met you earlier because then I would have been able to really get to know you. I'm part of a close-knit club on campus, and you were too. If I had joined as a freshman, we could have gotten close. There still could be a chance, who knows? But it is uncertain when I will see you again.

I wish that I could meet guys like you more often. A happy, outgoing, earthly human being, coming up to an introvert like myself. It was nice of you to come home to reunite with our mutual friends. It was such a wonderful night. You me, and our friends sat down and talked about the recent changes made on campus, like the horrendous parking due to the new dorm construction. It was no college party whatsoever, and I liked that. It was a very chill night with some good friends, and new faces. You gave the night a purpose.

I like how you offered me a ride back to my dorm at the end of the night. I thought that was super nice of you, especially after we had just met. I felt a good vibe around you, and I have needed that for quite some time. Just like that I trusted you, and hopped right into your car. Some car rides home are awkward and silent, but that was certainly not the case with you. You started off with the two basic questions a game show host would ask his contestants at the beginning. "Where are you from?" And "what do you do?" I know it is a common ice breaker for new students, but it’s not freshman year anymore. So when you asked me what I like most about studying Psychology, I was able to give you a better answer than, "it sounded interesting." It lead to a deeper conversation now that I've had some experience. You were so easy to talk to, and talking to boys has never been easy for me, trust me. I got to tell you all about the internship I had at the Neuropsychological office last summer, and how I've grown to love working with special needs children. I remember you telling me how you switched majors after your freshman year because people can change. With my psychology major instincts, I told you that it is just a part of life, sometimes you don't always know what you want right away. You say, "Wow, you're really understanding." That point in the conversation confirmed I have chosen the right major, and that is honestly one of the best feelings to have as a college student. I love talking to people, and hearing their stories. Especially with you, cool guy. I liked how you took the time to listen to my story. Our conversation was a nice balance. From there we got into a deep conversation about the infinite possibilities of Psychology. Deep conversations at night are the best kinds of conversations to have, because it got me feeling some sort of way.

With the stress of final exams around the corner, it was nice to spend the evening with you. Your good vibes have reeled me in. It is a shame that you're not going to stick around, because I want more nights like these. This night off has been much needed, and you have made it meaningful. So thank you, cool guy. Can I see you again someday?

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.
