What It's Like To Have A Best Friend Who Is More Like A Sister

You understand that the meaner she is to you, the more she likes you.
It's a kind of secret language you share. You know when she says, "Hey loser!" she really means, "Hey bestie!" And when she says, "I hate you," she actually means, "I love you." Or when she pushed you into your locker at school and laughed, it was her version of a hug.

She steals your clothes with no intention of giving them back.
And when you ask her where that shirt is that she borrowed two months ago, she says she doesn't know. But then wears it to class the next day. It's fine, though. It looks better on her anyway, I guess.

You are always blunt and honest with each other.
Did you make a mistake by texting that boy last night? Yes. Does her outfit of a shark t-shirt, sweatpants and combat boots looks ugly? Yup. And you're not afraid to tell each other those things. Y'all have no problem being straight up and honest. You won't hold back your opinions to spare the other's feelings, and you love each other for it.

You constantly bicker, but never get in actual fights.
Who was really to blame for that spilled ice cream in the car four years ago? The world may never know. (It was her). even though you will still argue about it to this day whenever someone brings it up, the good news is, this is about as intense as your arguments ever get.

You laugh the hardest together in the most inappropriate situations.
Like in the middle of church when the whole congregation is in silent prayer. More than once.

Your comebacks can never top hers.
For some reason your friend always has a way better comeback. That super witty comment you just made? Nope. She can do better. Soon enough, you're out of comebacks, you've lost the battle and are left struggling to climb out of the hole you've dug for yourself.

You're the butt of her jokes, but you usually laugh the hardest at them.
If there's something your best friend loves doing, it's making fun of you. Whether it's public embarrassment or telling people that you tripped and fell at graduation, she knows she can always count on getting a laugh out of people, especially you.

You get friendship, love, and laughter for life.
Together, you create the most unforgettable, and usually hilarious, memories that you will never forget. She's your best friend for a reason, and just like a real sister, she will be around forever. At the end of the day, you love her to death, and don't know where you would be without her.

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.
