An Open Letter to My College Best Friends
Kristin Cafaro

Dear Best Friends,

Where do I begin? I am beyond grateful you are in my life. Four years ago, I would have never guessed I would meet the people who would become the biggest part of my life. Now I have no idea what I would do without you. With graduation upon us, I have been reflecting on our time together. Some have you have started this journey at day one with me and others have just entered my life. No matter how long, you all have impacted me in the best way possible and I want to take the time to tell you how much i appreciate each one of you.

Thank you for all the laughs. All our inside jokes will have a special place in my heart. Others may not understand, but to us, they are everything. I know I can always count on you to cheer me up. I have gained a lot of years back on my life just by hanging out with you all. Also you have stuck by me even with my dad jokes. I am so glad I found people who love me for them and have come to expect them. Along with this, I admire that we all share the native language of sarcasm and speaking in quotes. It makes life much more fun. With all of you the smiles are as endless as our nights.

Speaking of which, I will miss those long ones of studying. Actually more like trying to get work done but being distracted by YouTube, Twitter, or whatever else. Being able to count on you guys made doing projects and papers ten times better. Plus through these nights we have turned into family.

Thank you for all the countless things you do for me. You feed me because campus food sucks. You share a love of multiple meals a day too at that. You drive me around everywhere and never mind it. You are my shoulders to cry on and my first to run to with good news. You dislike who I dislike and love who I love. You may tease me but at the end of the day, are always there for me. You understand the struggle bus and have all taken a turn driving it with me. You accept me for me and love me for all the good, bad, and even ugly. Above all else, you encourage me each and every day. You all keep me going and your positivity helps me get through each day. After all, my life is all about you guys and I am glad it is. You are there for the highs and lows and no matter what, I am thankful to have you by my side.

All in all, I could not have asked for a better squad. I cherish each one of you and love having you in my life. I cannot wait to see what the future will bring us. While it may seem like a chapter closing, it is only the beginning. Walt Disney once said "it seems to me we have a lot of story left to tell" and I could not agree more. So lets go make it a good one!

Love,

One Very Lucky Girl

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.
