To My Twin
Holly Moran

Dear Twin,

As I sit here in my tiny prison cell, typing this, I wish nothing more than to be back home with you, annoying Dana. Leaving you was one of the hardest things I’ve had to do, even if you are only 63 miles away. For the past two years now you’ve impacted my life in ways I can never forget. I thank God every day that he sent someone to me that knows me inside and out. I thank God you have never done me wrong nor have I ever had to question your loyalty. As with every friendship, we’ve experienced our ups and downs and we’ve had some close calls to calling it quits, but we’ve stuck it through. We work like clockwork with each other, going through the same phases, and at the end of the night, we both know we can’t be losers living out of Dana’s house and Logan’s car. I thank God that we give each other the drive that we lack amongst ourselves. Every single day it's either you face timing me or me face timing you, wanting to drop out of college and become a bread baker. I thank God Drew left me here with someone genuine. He always saw that you were my only true friend, and he would tell me endlessly he only saw you out of all of our friends at mine and his wedding (excluding Dustin). I don’t think anyone understands how cool it is reading each other’s minds, literally twin telepathy. We can be at a wedding, and I can look over at you and read your mind instantly: whether you’re comfortable, if you're drunk, if you’re ready to cry. It sucks I have to do this college journey without you. I hate how practical your being and I hope I figure out the right words to convince you to come. We can be in debt together and worry about it when we are bitter and live in London. As I type these last words I can already see the tears forming in your cry baby eyes. I’ll be waiting for your facetime call.

Love, Your Twin.

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.
