A Thank You To My Honorary Roomies
Cassy Annie

Dear Roomies,

Long time no see, right? What’s it been, like two hours since you last saw me on your couch? You may think I’m crazy, in fact, I know you think I’m crazy, but I just wanted to say thank you so much for everything you do for me. This may be completely lame and weird, but I feel like it’s long over due. So, thank you for honestly just being you and letting me invade your room on the daily.

As everyone probably knows, I’m a commuter, but I spend so much time on campus I practically live at my school. And I wouldn’t be able to be as involved as I am if it wasn’t for my crazy awesome bunch of friends who deal with me every single day. They have been letting me inhabit their rooms for over a year now and I think they have finally accepted the fact that I will probably be there for the rest of their lives. They call me their honorary roomie and I’m so blessed to have found them because I’d honestly be a totally different person without them.

A year ago, I was this semi-shy little girl who wasn’t exactly sure who were going to be her friends for the next four years. I came to Mis and boy am I glad I found you. Thanks for adopting me in a way that no one else will understand. Thanks for feeding me when I get hungry, walking me safely to my car always, letting me borrow shirts, shorts, shoes, socks, and the rest of your wardrobes, and for inviting me to all the fun. Thank you for the endless sleep overs, late night studying, laughs and cries and cuddles and most of all, walking down multiple flights of stairs just to let me into the building.

I am honored to have at least 17 honorary roomies who are always there when I need them. I think it’s about time to give them all a quick shout out and thank you. So, here goes nothing. Em, thanks for being there whenever I need you and also for letting me borrow your fabulous wardrobe all the time. Liv, twinnie, thank you for always showing me the bright side of things and always keeping me positive. Kass, thanks for sharing my name, our love for food, and your adorable giggle. Crystal, thanks for keeping me laughing, always and for going on crazy, old lady Zumba with me. Jess, thanks for being bae and sitting with me in a bath tub!! Emily, thanks for all the compliments and keeping the streak forever. Shy, thanks for always brightening my day and for listening to me whenever I need to talk. Katie, thanks for all you do for me. I don't know what I'd do without your crazy self and, also, for your bed. Megan, thanks for all the advice and words of wisdom, and also all the silliness along the way. Courtney, thanks for letting me invade your room all the time and for talking about makeup! Steph, thanks for the pink comfy chair and for accepting me as a new roomie. Claudia, thanks for being my mommy all the time 'cause I love when you call me sweetie. Megan, thanks for all the confidence that radiates off you and for trying to teach me yoga. Adam, thanks for letting me walk in without knocking and for dealing with me for 12 years in counting. Chrissy, thanks for being the best big sister ever and for letting me use you as my blank canvas sometimes. Charlotte, thanks for dealing with me literally all last year and don’t worry, I’ve been busy, but I will come visit all the time!!! And Ana, you’re probably never going to see this because you don’t have facebook, but thank you for being my number one fan, always. Thanks for never failing to be there when I needed you. You are an amazing person and wherever my future takes me I hope you are right there by my side forever.

I know I’m not easy, but all of you make me better. You make me want to do and be better. Never stop being who you are because I wish the world could have a thousand of you. You guys don’t know how much you mean to me, but I hope this shows it a little. Love you and see you soon!

Love,
Cassy

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.
