Thank you all for impacting my life the way you did.

To My High School Friends Who I Won't See Again, This One's For You
Brody Espiritu

To be completely honest, this is one hard article to write. Memories piled into one filing cabinet that I somehow have to unlock. Memories of four years condensed into one simple article that will hopefully reach the attention of my friends. All of the car rides, milkshakes, football games, pep-rally's, and stupidity pressed into a simple article. I won't embarrass you.. I promise. Let's hope I don't mess this up.

Tyler - I know you want to become a police officer but like.. are you sure? Make sure to not pull me over just to say hello. If I see you, I'll speed.

Lilli - In the words of Khalid, "Young, dumb, broke, high school kids." Thank you for the amazing relationship. Wouldn't trade it for the world. Also, I handed food to your aunt at Chick-Fil-A. She was nice.

Nick - "Brody.. why does your spine curve?" Thanks for pointing it out. I really enjoyed learning how to walk again. :)

Jukaylyn - Beyonce who? Never heard of her.

Hayden - Thank you for pushing me to be the Christian I am today. Without you, I wouldn't know anything about how much you love socialism.

Jack - Never go to jail.

Blake - You will be an amazing teacher.

Natalie - Remember when I liked you? That was awkward.

Andrew - You're dating my ex.

Carter - I am begging you to run for President. PLEASE Carter. That way I can be in the White House :)

Milana - I'll always remember when you have a gallon of tea to spill to me. Save some for the next person though.

Emily - "Ya'll I have a problem.. I can't see with my eyes closed."

Chip - Chip please... Do me a favor and never get grounded again...

Lily - You are NOT allowed to graduate this year. Nope.

Greg - Hey Greg


If you are not listed, know that I probably forgot you. BUT blame the ADHD. But on a more serious note, I will never forget the crazy car rides, the Friday night football games, singing at drama practice, the relationship that changed who I am, and the many laughs that were shared along the way. I hope that as we go our separate ways, you enjoy people, laugh until you wheeze, count adventures as lifetime goals, take the pictures that you always wanted, drink the soda (not alcohol) that you wish, meet the people that change your life, and marry the person that will be your forever. Thank you for believing in me as I believe in you. I love you all.


With Love,

Brody

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.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

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.
