The 5 Types of Friends You Should be Thankful For
Huffington Post

There are many different kind of friends that we have, and they all play different roles in our life. To have a friend, you have to be a friend and you can never have too many of them. Here's just the Top 5 that you should be the most thankful for.

The School Friend

We all have those one or two friends in each class where you help each other out with assignments, study together , but most importantly listen to each other rant about how much you hate the class and how ridiculous the professor is. You may not hang out with this friend unless it is for a class related reason, but this friend is and always will be handy.

The New Friend

You met because you needed a tampon. Although you aren't close yet, you keep her around and slowly things become less awkward. You exchange stories and the closer you get, the more you realize that you are the same person and that becomes very, very, very dangerous. Friendship Tampons should be a thing.

That Girl You Met at a House Party and Told your Life Story To

You met when you were really drunk waiting in line for the bathroom. You became instant BFF's, and then you never saw them again. Thank you for telling me your whole life story, and I hope you are still killing it in whatever you do boo.


Your Ex Best Friend

You were really close for a long time, but life happens. You go from being like family, to being a stranger. It is worse than breaking up with your boyfriend, hands down. But at the end of the day, if they were really your Best Friend they would never leave you stranded. If you are truly best friends, nothing will ever come in between that.

Your Sister God Forgot to Give You

She's your sister. No matter how annoying, dumb, cranky, or weird she can be, you can't get rid of her. At the end of the day, there's no one else that would be there to pick up the pieces of your mental breakdown better than her. She is your go to for a night out, for a movie night, for a shopping spree, for everything and anything in your life. You cant get rid of her if you tried.

Friends are the family that you get to pick. They make some of the best memories with you, and even if you aren't friends anymore, you will always have a bond that is different from any other friendship that you have had. All your friends have or had some significance in your life,and they were there when you needed them most. They have taught you lessons and have given you memories that will last a lifetime whether it be in the classroom, or at the movies, or a party. Always remember, to have a friend, you have to be a 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.
