A Poem For My Friend Who Transferred
Brianna Wiles

So you transferred. And left me here to fend for myself, to find that new friend who's kind of like you but will never replace you. To open up to someone new kind of like you

So you transferred. I had a lot of emotions about it. Angry, sad and happy. Knowing it was for your best interest, I was still emotional! They were all mixed into one. Contemplating if I should text you or not.

So you transferred. I’m angry because I had to find out about it. Knowing you were leaving me here. To do what we do alone, without you. To laugh at that one girl alone. To rant about that boy alone. To complain about waking up alone. To complaining about you not getting sleep alone.

So you transferred. I was sad because you are my ride or die. You are the key to our three people ring. The fight through it all. The silent but deadly one. The person with dope car and silly dad. The one my parents thought was a better influence on me than me to you. The one who got the award that we have to share now.

So you transferred. I was happy because I knew you need to go your own way this year. Had to find who you are. Be who you are. Do what you want to do. Going on a great path. Going to do bigger and better things. Following your dreams. Making you a better you. Fighting for what you know you have to do.

So you transferred. Thank you for being my friend. Hope to see you soon. Hope the new school treats you well. Hope you find that girl that's kind of like me but won't replace me. Open up to someone new like me.

So you transferred. I’m okay now about it all. And I'm really excited to see you grow there. Have fun! But don't do anything I would do! And most importantly, don’t forget about 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.
