To My BFF Two States Away

As Coldplay says, ​See You Soon​.

To My BFF Two States Away
Taylor Ashmore

I'm not going to lie, being away from you is hard. You never really get used to being away from your best friend. It's harder to share the little things in life, like the fact that I got an A on my math quiz or the fact that I tripped going up the stairs today. Sometimes I feel dumb texting you these things, even though I used to talk to you for hours about some of the most meaningless things.

Whenever I hesitate to send you a text saying "omg you won't believe what just happened," I remember that I love to hear everything going on in your life. I love hearing the fact that you saw the random guy we met at our first party or that you finally finished Shameless (it was about time). Every single text from you, makes me smile.


(even this one)

Even though we're two states away, we're still the same friends we were a year ago, we just have to work a little harder for it. Being apart from each other has shown me just how important our friendship is. Even though we live 362 miles away from each other, we still manage to "see" each other every day, whether it be through a snapchat, text, or even a meme on instagram.

Some friendships are worth the distance and ours definitely makes that list. Even though we only get to see each other a few times a year, it makes those days just a little more special. Sometimes it feels like we're catching up on the past few months in a matter of hours, but after that it feels like old times, where we would sit and watch Sex and the City together for hours. It's worth the wait to see you if it means sitting around, doing nothing except talking.

I will always be there for you, even if I'm not physically there. I'm always a phone call away. Being away from each other definitely changes some things, but it doesn't change the fact that you are without a doubt one of my best friends. And, even though it goes without saying, I miss you.

As Coldplay says, See You Soon.

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.
