How Do You Tell Someone You Love Them?

Do you just kiss the lips off their face? Or squeeze their hand a few extra times?

My freshman year of college is over in five finals days and I'm currently bawling my eyes out.

Graduating high school is one thing, but finishing a year at college is another.

At least you've got the summer before they leave but I only have days.

How can you tell someone you love them in five days?

How do you tell someone you love them in five days?

Do you just kiss the lips off their face? Or squeeze their hand a few extra times?

Should I go on a date with him and just throw the words up in his face?

What about watching a few more episodes of "The Office" because it's his favorite?

How do I tell him? Because I have less than 120 hours with this stupid boy that I cannot forget, and if I don't tell him now he will forget and you know how I hate forgetting.

He's like the bee that buzzes constantly around your ears and in my mind and he never shuts up yet I love it.

Or the annoying sound of your alarm clock in the morning but somehow it's comforting to hear because he's become a routine.

He stayed an hour past curfew one night and I swear we were gonna get caught because his laugh is so loud and contagious that it carried all the way out the door and down the hall.

We planned to watch a movie but somehow we ended up finding a stupid video about twilight. Two hours later we were watching comedy vines via twitter.

He told me his girlfriend got mad that he was at my house once and I was beaming on the inside.

I've never been the one that makes the other girls jealous.

He tells me he hates it here and every time I die a little, because he's happier in California, without me.

And he's happier with his girlfriend, even though they fight every week.

I'm not saying this is a "you belong with me" moment, but he doesn't fight with me, and he smiles more when he's with me.

And he tells me I'm his only friend and I can't help but cry because who wouldn't want to be friends with the guy I've slowly fallen for?

How do I tell him I love him, even though he doesn't love me?

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.
