Oh, You Don’t Have A Gay BFF? I’m Sorry

From dude advice to making me laugh at literally everything.

It's always nice to have your go-to best friend (s) for advice and to be there for you whatever it may be, but having a gay best friend is a specialty.

Every day I am either texting, Snapchatting, Facetiming, or Twitter direct messaging my best friend Mason. I don't know what it is but he could say ANYTHING and I laugh hysterically. We mostly joke about how our lives are beyond stressful and our love lives in general.

Mason is so funny that he went viral on Twitter once

Whenever I need a personal hype-man, I call Mason. Whenever I need the approval of posting a selfie in the new outfit Mason encouraged me to buy, I call Mason. He is the perfect combination of the devil and angel on my shoulder

Don't get me wrong, my other friends do all the same for me, but I take Mason's opinion to heart the most. If I look like an absolute wreck, he will tell me. If I'm having a good day and look like Britney Spears, he will tell me.

Whenever I overthink a text from the male species, Mason is the person I reach out to in order to decipher the coded message as if he knows the password. I mean he is a dude too, so it's nice to get his perspective on things. (Even if he might lie to make me feel better sometimes, it's ok I do it too.)

If I'm having a mental breakdown and my eyeliner is down to my chin, and I'm sobbing uncontrollably about something so petty, you guessed it right, I call Mason.

I get exciting news that's work-related or Billie Joe Armstrong (lead singer of Green Day) finally comes to his senses and asks to marry me? You guessed it, I call Mason.

Mason is the most non-judgmental person I have ever met and is so caring for others. I know that if I needed him he would drop what he's doing and rush to see me.

So, if you are looking to have a person that will always be there for you, or need to plot revenge on someone, or tell you their honest opinion about how a dress just doesn't work for you, you need to a Mason. You can't have mine though, get your own.

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.

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.
