Thank You To The Roommate That Turned Into A Sister

I couldn't stand you but at some point you turned into my best friend.

Thank You To The Roommate That Turned Into A Sister
Raven Stikes

First, let me say thank you for putting up with me. Who would've guessed that we would end up being friends after I spent most of the first semester not being able to stand you? We have had so many fun (mis)adventures. Whether it be the time we went driving and ended up on a dirt road with you and Shelbs flipping out to our late night runs to the commons for Swiss Cake Rolls because I really wanted some and was too afraid to walk by myself to the times that you put off your sleep just to stay with me at the library so I could get in my study hours because I was always busy during the regular hours. Though we both knew we had an early morning the next day. Then there is the time we decided that climbing the stairs for two straight days was a great idea so we wouldn't get out in Spoon Assassins and after being so sore decided the elevator wasn't too risky. But we still acted as if we were being hunted by the FBI whenever we felt the elevator stop on any floor besides the first floor. Then there was the days where after our 9 a.m. you would meet me in the commons because I always had to get George's or Einsteins.

Looking back on the past semester makes me upset that we won't be rooming together again. We hardly ever had a dull moment whether it be you talking in your sleep or us messing around in the hallway because of Juan the ghost dog. I couldn't have asked for a better person to share some of my most heartbreaking to funniest moments with. Getting to spend this past summer with you has truly been a blessing even if we are spending most of it together at work. I'm glad that I have gotten to spend my summer with you. Thank you for always listening to me complain even whether it be about boys or my crazy family or school. You were always there ready sitting in our room in your pink moon chair ready to listen to me and give me advice.

Even though many people probably believe that we hate each other they will probably never understand that you are one of my best friends even if you do drive me crazy sometimes. I can't wait to share the rest of my college experience with you. I hope you know that no matter where we go I will always have your back and you will now and forever be Mama Tams. I look forward to our workouts together, movie nights and game nights (Clue is calling our name). This next week coming up is gonna be one of the toughest leaving both you and my family. As soon as you get to campus I will be over annoying you, Chlo and Shelbs. I can't wait for the Nanas to be reunited to wreak havoc on campus once again at Bingo and Zumba. I can't wait for us to have more Haute adventures. Also, Whenever you figure out who built what wall when let me know. Thank you for being my mom away from home and kicking me in the rear when I needed it most.

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.
