An Open Letter To My College Friends As We Part

Dear Homies,

This farewell is about as hard as when Jack said goodbye to Rose in "Titanic." I realize that most of us have already said our goodbyes, but I can't help but confess how lonely my life is without having you two minutes away and how much I miss you all already.

Although you are just about the craziest, wildest and best people I have had the privilege to know, all of you have helped me make this first year of college the best yet. You have made me laugh day in and day out, been there for me when I need a helping hand, been able to keep me sane during finals, loved me for who I am and made every day a great one.

We have gotten so close throughout the year and I am so grateful for you and your crazy selves. Even though we have friends we are now able to reunite with from home, I can't help but say please don't forget about me!

Now I understand that almost four months apart will be a very, VERY long time not seeing my beautiful face, considering we saw each other at least once a day for the past three months. But don't worry, our Snapchat streak will be on FIRE by the time we reunite and I'll be showing up at your door regularly just like semester is still in session.

Regardless of where we are or how far apart we may be, just know that I am so excited for our reunion (even though we just said goodbye). I can't begin to explain how heartbreaking it will be when I need your help with homework, need to make some coffee, need to use your vacuum, have you help me pick out my outfit or meet me for breakfast knowing you are now so far way. I will miss our lunch, study, ice cream, gym and every other date. I mean, I know you will have other people to have dates with at home, but just know that a piece of me will be missing you when I need a date to the mall.

Although missing you is heartbreaking, the struggle becomes real when I want to tell my high school friends about all the crazy things we have done this semester. They don't understand the irony or the love behind our friendship because they don't even know you like I do! (Yes, I love to brag about you.)

The most amazing part about leaving college for the summer is knowing that our reunion will be the best thing ever. So many plans and so many laughs that we get to catch up on. No, I don't want this summer to fly by, but knowing that I get to reunite with some of the best people will make going back to school that much better.

I hope you all have a fantastic summer and don't miss me too much. Only kidding. But in all seriousness, I love you and I'll FaceTime you in a minute.

I miss you already,

Me

There are tons of unisex names that are popular: Taylor, Alex, Bailey, etc. There are also numerous names that are used for both sexes, but they’re not seen as “unisex” yet. People are slowly becoming accustomed to the dual use of these names, but for the most part, in their minds they associate certain names with certain sexes. And that leaves those of us with these names in many awkward situations.

I'm an anthropology major, and I love every minute of it. I couldn't tell you why, but I guess there's just something about studying different lifestyles that absolutely fascinates me. But anthropology majors definitely have our weird sides, especially when you go to a school that is filled with mostly Business and Bio majors. But us weirdos definitely have a lot in common, specifically these 16 things.

Everyone has insecurities, that's just a fact. You didn't ask to be born this way. You didn't ask to inherit the one trait no one else in your family has. And you definitely didn't ask to be this ghostly white. But as soon as you've learned to live with it for a while (less wrinkles later on in life, right? right???) someone has to ruin it for you. They have to flaunt they're perfectly tanned body from Spring Break and hold their sun-kissed skin against yours. But I've had enough... here are the things that perpetually pale individuals are tired of hearing.

Being a music major is not all kicks and giggles. In fact, there are days when I question my sanity and doubt myself as a musician. I know I am not the only one going through the struggle, and so here are 13 GIFs that I know my fellow music majors can relate to...
