A Thank You Note To My Friends From Home

Dear BFFs,

First off, thanks for always being there - even when you're not. We may not see each other as much as we used to, but I know I can always count on endless amounts of group texts, phone calls, and FaceTimes whenever necessary.

Thanks for the constant life updates on school, boys, and college friends. Our separate lives away from each other may seem foreign at times but I know we all feel as if we're sharing the same experiences together, even if we are not all physically there.

Thanks for all the adventures we have had together and all the adventures we will undoubtedly embark on in the future. No matter how much time we spend away from each other, nothing ever changes once we're reunited again.

Thanks for the infinite inside jokes that no one else understands, and the infinite laughs that accompany them. I'm thoroughly amazed that we all happened to stumble upon each other, because I'm convinced no one else in the world shares our strange sense of humor.

Thanks for sharing the love for the same movies and TV shows, and for always making references to our favorite ones. Let's face it, we are basically the cast of Sex and the City.

Thanks for the High School Musical marathons during every major school break. They will never, ever get old.

Thanks for the lazy nights spent sitting in the basement, playing card games, and eating Mango Peach Salsa.

Thanks for sticking around as we grew out of our awkward stages together - even though sometimes I'm convinced our lives may all just be one prolonged awkward stage.

Speaking of which, thanks for sending random reminders in our group message of awkward moments we've endured together. Those always account for a good laugh.

Thanks for the five-hour-long phone calls because we've been away from each other for too long.

Thanks for being there through the bad times and the good times alike. You are constant encouragers, shoulders to cry on, and the biggest supporters.

Thanks for being real. I know I can always count on you to let me know when I'm overreacting, when I'm being irrational, or when I'm about to make a not-so-wise decision.

Thanks for every midnight snack, midnight drive, and midnight conversation. Those are memories that can never be topped.

Thanks for being my people. I don't know what I would do without your crazy, thoughtful, fun, hilarious, wonderful selves.

Thanks for a friendship that I know will last forever, even as we go our separate ways. In the words of Carrie Bradshaw, "dreams change, trends come and go, but friendships never go out of style."

Thanks for always giving me a reason to be excited about coming home.

Basically, thanks for doing life with me even from miles away. Even a thousand miles can't keep us apart. Now get your butts home so we can hangout.

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.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

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.
