Why I Miss My Dogs More Than People

Dogs are the best, you can't help but miss them when you're gone.

Why I Miss My Dogs More Than People

I can honestly say that sometimes I miss my dogs during college more than I miss people. Personally, I believe my dogs are the best in the world. No other dog can compare. When I say that I miss them more than people, understand that I love my family and friends, it's just that nothing can compare to cuddling with your dog after a long day. I miss that the most while I am away from home.

Heres five reasons why I miss my dogs the most during college:

1. They act extremely happy to see you when you come home from college and then it's as if you never had time apart. Unlike people, time doesn't matter to dogs. You could be gone for years but you dog will love you just the same when you return. Your friendship is just so strong that you both know the love is everlasting.

2. They don't nag you with chores to do or ask you questions about whether you have a boyfriend. They don't care if you sleep until noon, as long as you let them out to pee when you wake up, they will lay beside you as long as you want.

3. They don't care about what you did in college, all they care about is having you back home with them. When you tell them about the mistakes you made and the embarrassing stuff you said, they just look at you lovingly. Judgement is never in your friendship, to them, you are perfect.

4. They are such good listeners, even when they don't care what you're talking about. They don't give you crap about making bad decisions or ask you a million questions, they just listen.

5. They are so stinkin' cute! No matter the humidity, time of day, or situation, they will always be there for you ready for a back scratch. They truly are man's best friend.

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.
