A Thank You Letter To My College Friends
Msecnd.net

Wow, most of you were all strangers to me this time last year. That’s crazy! Well not crazy, but definitely strange. It's strange because I can't imagine my life without any of you. I think meeting you all was one of the biggest blessings in my life. Whether I met you before college, the first day, or in the middle of the year, each and every one of you means so much to me. In such a short amount of time, we have all experienced so much together.

You have seen me cry, a lot. Whether it was over a class, a stupid comment, or a TV show, you have seen a lot of my tears. In my room, your room, or in the library, you have seen me at my worse (or my most dramatic). The good thing is, you haven't ever judged me for it. (OK, you definitely have when it was over "Hamilton" and goats.) This is all OK though, since I've basically seen you all cry over reasonable and stupid stuff, too.

I can always count on an adventure when we go out. It's a given that there will probably be screaming, some crying, and lots of laughs. No matter how obnoxious we may be, it is always a fun time when we're together. I want to thank you all, because without you, college would not be the same.

Thank you for teaching me how to do laundry so I would actually have clean clothes to wear.

Thank you for never judging me when I eat a whole pizza. Also, thank you for joining and encouraging me to eat that whole pizza.

Thank you for always being a shoulder to cry on, no matter how stupid my reason for crying is.

Thank you for always making me laugh.

Thank you for complaining about life with me because when it's not going right for one of us, then it's not going right for any of us.

Thank you for putting up with me every day, I seriously don't know how you do it.

Thank you for yelling at people for me because I'm too annoyed to do it myself.

Thank you for the late night gossip sessions. Without them, I would never know anything that's going on.

Thank you for forcing me out of my room because it was about time I finally left.

Thank you for staying in with me when it's too cold, and we are all too lazy to leave bed.

Thank you for going along with my spur of the moment decisions.

Thank you for all of our retail therapy outings. I am now broke, but at least it made life more bearable for that short period of time.

Thank you for all of our all-day Saturday Lifetime movie marathons.

Thank you for loving me and being my friends despite all of my flaws.

I love you guys with all of my heart. I can't wait to see what the future will bring us.

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.
