To The Best Friend I Won't See Every Day Anymore
Jaclyn McEachern

Dear Best Friend,

You know who you are and let me just say, you are my person. You are the one I can go to when I need a laugh or even just to cry, which we both know rarely happens. To be honest I have no idea what I would ever do without you in my life. Even though we have only know each other for four years, it feels way longer than that. It feels like you have always been a part of my life.

People say that a best friend is someone who brings out the best in you and I believe you do that for me. So, thank you for being that person for me. I honestly can't thank you enough for you have done for me.

It feels like just yesterday we were awkward little freshman, sitting in class to nervous to even talk to each other. Now fast forward, it is four years later and we haven't stopped talking since. I will forever cherish our after school hang out, our random drives to get ice cream, and even our Mary Lou's trips. I will miss all those fun little things as we go off to college but I know they will happen when you come home for break and it will be like you never left.

As you know, trust is a huge thing for me and thank you for never breaking mine. I can tell you anything and you will always listen. And I know if I were to ever get in trouble, I could go to you for anything.

Thank you for sticking around, even when I have given you every reason to not to. I have given you attitude for no reason. I have gotten mad at you when you clearly have done nothing and I'm sorry. You have seen me at my best and worst. I honestly couldn't have asked for a better friend.

Also, thank you for letting me be myself. In high school, it is hard to find a friend that doesn't judge you for being "weird." Thank you for letting me go on rants about my new obsession or about my always there Disney craze. I never have to worry about what I look like or the fact that I snort when I laugh because I know you will never drop me due to my imperfections. You showed me to be different is to be okay.

As we go off to college, I know it will be weird because I won't get to see you every day. But I know you will do wondrous things and travel to amazing places. And I promise I will visit where ever you go. Just because we are going to college doesn't mean you will lose me. We will talk every day and even when we don't we will just pick up where we left off!

Finally, I wish you the best in everything you do. Even when you think everyone is against you just remember, I will always be cheering you on. No matter where I am, I will always be here for you.

Sincerely,

Your best friend JQ

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.
