To My Best Friends

To those close and far, you all mean the world to me.

To My Best Friends

To my 2 best friends from home, I know college has sucked for everyone. I never expected to be going to opposite sides of the state, and I NEVER expected my best friend moving to a different state. I'm sorry if I've seemed distant from some of you. My life got busy, but I never forgot about either of you. I love both of you so much and you both have helped me over numerous years.

Thank you for sticking around during my awkward middle school years and growing up with me through high school. Thank you for picking me up after a guy broke my heart and I thought it was the end of the world. Thank you for bringing me food, for random best friend dates, for making me laugh when I wanted to cry, and especially thank you for being my shoulders to cry on when life got hard. Thank you for never giving up on me even though we're in two different places. Thank you both so much. Both of you would love my friends at college. Some of them have qualities that remind me of you. However, none of them could replace my two best friends, even if you guys are cheerleaders (JOKES).

To my new friends at college, you all saw me at a bad part in my life. You guys saw me cry more and fake happiness than anyone I know. However, thank you all for being there for me and giving me advice. I was blessed to be in a hall with such amazing people and I'm sad to see that the semester is almost over because next fall we're not living in the same building anymore. However, those friendships we established within the first month of school are ones that I will never lose. Whether it's being a NARP or laying around having deep conversations, we never have a dull moment.

Thank you for always giving me advice when I need it. I know I'm an ugly crier, but thank you for being there during arguments and making sure I was going to bed okay. Thank you for spontaneous trips to people's houses and meeting mom and dad. Thank you for supporting me in soccer and lacrosse. Thank you for the endless laughs and the random car rides in the jeep with the windows down. I'll be there for each and every one of you, and you all know who you are. I can't wait to see our lives after college, coming back together and reminiscing on the memories we're creating right now.

All in all, the friendships I made 10 years ago or 8 months ago mean the world to me. You all have kept me sane and on the right path in life. I know I'm a brat and annoying at times, but thank you for helping me become the person I am today and the person I will grow into. Texas sucks, Salisbury is far, and Meyran forever. I love 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.
