Why I'm Thankful For My College Besties

They haven't replaced my preexisting besties, but they were simply added to the list.

Why I'm Thankful For My College Besties
Taylor Gifford

Coming into college is a life changing experience. There are many new people you meet, either through Greek life or just people you always see around campus! My first semester of college my gang of gal pals were by my side, but then they transferred and I miss them more than words allow me to describe. But I've made new friends, not replacing them, but friends that we share together. I couldn't be more thankful for my college besties!

When I met my college besties, it was through my friends who joined me in college or friends we met at a party...shamelessly. I couldn't be more thankful for them! While I don't talk to them often, because sometimes that happens, we pick up right where we left off.

It's amazing how close I've gotten with them! We could seriously spend every waking moment together and not get tired of each other! In just a short period of time, they've impacted my life in many ways. Even if they're just telling me that my professor is just nuts, of just being there for girl talk. They've always supported me in more ways than one.

When we're together, there's never a dull moment...ever. We're always cracking up laughing, even at the most random stuff. We like to go on adventures too! There's just so much unconditional love in our friendship and that's something I'll always cherish!

My college besties genuinely care about me and my well-being. I can be up at two in the morning, sick to my stomach, and they'll check on me and bring me food and medicine to make me feel better. For the simple things like that, I owe them. I owe them with the same amount of love and respect, and, of course, an everlasting and unforgettable friendship!

So, college besties, thank you for being you! And for caring about me and many other things I can't think of right now! You know...just thank you! Love you to the moon and back and can't wait to grow old with you all!

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.
