-best friends are never apart, maybe be distance, but never by heart.

Dear my long distance besties,

Where do I even begin? We've been best friends for years, since the very beginning. My day one O.G.'s. We've shared endless memories together. We've helped each other through the good times and the bad. And we know each others deepest and darkest secrets. We grew up together, and you helped to shape me into the person I am today. And yeah we've had our ups and down over the years, but who doesn't? But I honestly can't imagine my childhood or my teenage years without you gals by my side.

Back when we were running around in the park, having sleep overs every weekend, and bopping together at the little discos, who would have thought that by the time we reached 20 years old, we would all be living in different corners of the world. It seems crazy. Our biggest worries back then were "what dress will I wear this weekend" and "omg do you think he likes me back?" We would think about all traveling the world together, and about how maybe one day we would live in an apartment together. But you really never know what the future holds!

I probably don't tell you nearly enough but I want to thank you both. I want to thank you for not letting the hundreds of miles and the oceans between us tear our friendships apart! We don't talk everyday, time zones and school and work and life can make it pretty hard sometimes. But I always know that as soon as we do pick up the phones again, it's like nothing has changed. I know that no matter how tough life gets, the two people who know me best in the world, will still only be a text away! And while on the topic of thank you's, thanks for sticking with me through those awkward early teenage years. Looking back on some of the old selfies and questionable make up looks, I don't really know how we made it though LOL. Thank you for walking straight into my house and asking what was for dinner, and treating my family like your own! And thank you for letting me do the same. Thank you for years of laughter and tears and private jokes and I'll never forget. And thank you for picking me up when I was down, and making me laugh til I cried.

Now that we are all living in different parts of the world, and life is going in so many different directions, it makes me so happy to know that I still have two people like you in my life! One thing I know for sure is that I'll always cherish our friendship and the memories that we all hold, no matter the distance! I hope that what the future holds for all of us, no matter where we all end up, is nothing less than amazing! I hope that you both follow all of your dreams and achieve everything that you have ever wanted! And I hope that you both remember that I love you and miss you both everyday and that we will always be best friends!

We Heart It

Over the past decade, television has undergone a very crucial transition: the incorporation of female lead characters. Since it's a known fact that girls actually do run the world (Beyonce said so herself), it's time for the leading ladies of the small screen to get some credit. Without these characters, women would still be sitting in the background of our favorite shows. These women are not only trailblazers for female empowerment, but role models for women worldwide. With that, here are 15 of the smartest, sassiest ladies gracing our screens that remind us that women do, indeed, rule:
