To The Friends I Made Freshman Year Of College
Alex Melito

Now that freshman year has come to an end, I am left here wondering how I'm going to survive the summer without the friends I made this year. With college being such a big life change and transition, I was truly blessed with the best group of friends, who have become like family.

Thank you for always being there for me when I needed it most. Whether it was giving me a ride to the supermarket, helping with homework, or just listening to my problems, there was never hesitation to offer assistance in any way.

Thank you for being my partners in crime. At parties when a bathroom buddy was needed, or there was someone to be avoided, you all never failed to help. Not to mention, when the RA's would get on our case about something, we all had each others backs and never singled anyone out!

Thank you for tripling the size of my closet and being my stylists. Every time there was a date party, formal, party, or even just going to class, I could always count on having honest opinions on outfits, and even being able to borrow articles of clothing or accessories.

Thank you for never failing to make me laugh. On the good days, or the bad days, I could always count on having someone to make me almost pee myself laughing. Even though some of the weird things said made me question our friendship, it always did the trick and made me smile.

Thank you for being people I could trust. Every time I needed an honest opinion on something, or needed to talk about something personal, it was an unspoken agreement that everything that was said would be kept secret.

Thank you for showing me that college is where you find your forever friends. Dealing with some fake people all throughout the earlier years of school, this was a refreshing change. I can't wait to see where life brings us all throughout the next three years!

Thank you for the best freshman year I could ask for. The late night talks, crazy ideas, inside jokes, and blackmail worthy snapchat stories, will never be forgotten. You all made the transition to college so easy and I can only hope every high school senior experiences the same when they arrive at college.

Taylor Swift's Eras Tour is What I Hope Heaven Feels Like

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

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.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

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.
