A Thank You Letter To My College Best Friends
Victoria Murray

Dear Best Friends,

As another school year comes to an end, I keep finding myself looking back on all the memories we shared this year. These memories I have with you guys are memories I will cherish forever. They are moments in time that will never change; memories that no picture could do justice. From the nights in spent just talking to the nights when we did not get home until three in the morning, these are memories I would not change for the world. I cannot believe that I was blessed with such great friends, but I was and I could not be more thankful. All of this being said, I have a few things I would like to thank you for.

First, I want to thank you for always being able to make me laugh until tears were streaming down my face.

Who knows why we laughed this hard or if what we were laughing at was even that funny, but these moments are ones that I will always be grateful for. I'm just glad we all have the same sense of humor.

Also, thanks for being there for me when tears were streaming down my face for any other reason.

For the nights I was home sick and you made me feel at home to the nights I was in a fight with a friend and you just let me cry to the other times I was just sad for probably no reason at all, thanks for always being there for me (even if it meant answering a FaceTime at two in the morning).

Thank you for letting me vent when I was upset for no reason at all.

Why was I so mad? No one knows. Probably at something stupid or something just finally set me over the edge. But thank you for understanding that sometimes I just get angry and letting me vent even though you probably did not completely understand why.

Thanks for agreeing with me that he was a jerk even though he is probably actually a really nice guy.

Let's be real, not every boy that screws a girl over is a total jerk. However, thanks for agreeing with me that he was the worst human on the planet, at least for the time being. Oh, and for plotting hypothetical revenge.

Thank you for knowing when I needed pizza and chocolate versus beer and shots of vodka.

There are some problems a night in with the girls can heal, and there are other things that only shotgunning a beer or doing a shot of vodka can fix. Thanks for knowing when I needed which and always being down for whichever I needed.

Thanks for helping me pick out endless amounts of outfits.

I have a closet full of clothes, yet I still never have anything to wear. It's safe to say that I will never leave in the first thing I tried on, so thanks for being patient with me. And thanks for being honest when you hated my outfit; I really do appreciate it.

And finally, I want to thank you for being you.

Thank you so much for being you, and thank you for letting me be me. We are all different people, but somehow we come together to make a pretty awesome group of friends. I cannot tell you enough how much I love each of you and appreciate every single one of your friendships. College, and life itself, would not be the same without you. I cannot wait to see what the future holds for all of us. Love you lots.

Sincerely,

Your Friend

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.
