An Open Letter To Starbucks' Drinks

If loving pretty much every drink on the menu is wrong then I don't want to be right.

Dear every drink that has graced the menu of Starbucks,

There's one of you for every mood I'm in -- good or bad, and there's WAY too many of you that I love equally. It's impossible to acknowledge you all individually.

You come in all shapes and sizes and beautiful mixes of colors. You can teach us all that our differences don't take away from our beauty (or deliciousness).

Some of you are pink and some of you are berry-licious. Some of you have a caramel drizzle and some of you are piled high with whipped cream. Some of you even taste just as great with almond milk.

You all never fail to keep me warm on the coldest days and to cool me off on the hottest. Whether it's a little something chocolatey that I'm craving, an immediate shot of caffeine in order to get through the rest of the day or a yummy and refreshing summertime drink that's so snapchattable it hurts, you guys always come through.

If coffee isn't what I'm craving then there's a tea for all my moods that will probably help keep my skin clear, too. Green tea, you have helped me through many breakouts and Medicine Balls might just be the cure to the common cold.

You've kept me awake through every 8 AM lecture and gotten me through all-night study sessions that otherwise wouldn't have happened without you. I've bonded and laughed over you with some of my best friends and quietly sipped you by myself some mornings when I needed alone time.

You've given me something to hold on to in pictures when I otherwise wouldn't know what to do with my hands and given me something to sip so when I'm angry I won't accidentally let anything I'd regret come out of my mouth. You've each been there for me like an old friend, and for that I thank you.

Even if you are sometimes a teeny bit overpriced, you're worth it. To all the drinks at Starbucks, thank you for being YOU, because you rock.

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.
