An Open Letter To Our RA

We don't know what we would do without you most days.

An Open Letter To Our RA
Lindsay Terry

To Our Amazing RA,

All of us here on the floor can imagine that being a Resident's Assistant is not the easiest, most glamorous, or flexible job that you could have on campus. The process that you had to go through to become our RA was extensive. But you were determined, and even excited, to make the floor a home for all of us. You made it a place where we could come to develop close knit relationships, talk about everything from boys to final exams to Jesus, and have random spa nights. Being the broke college students that we are, there isn't really anything extravagant that we can do to thank you for all your thoughtfully planned out events, your caring attitude, and your constant smiles, so, here are a few reasons why we absolutely adore you....

"You are the cutest RA ever! You are so happy and genuine. You brighten up everyone's day."

"Your happiness is contagious! Thanks for always making me smile."

"You are such a great RA! You are always so encouraging and ready with a smile!"

"I hope you know how much we all appreciate and love you! I love how you make time for us with your busy schedule. You are appreciated and we would all be lost without you."

"You are the best RA because you care so much about us and you organize fun things for us to do as a floor like hall dinners, spa nights, etc."

"You are such a Godly woman and I am so thankful that you is our RA! I couldn't have made it these first few weeks without you. Love ya!"

"You always make a point to make sure we are doing okay, and you care about even the smallest things in our lives."

"You are the sweetest, most caring person, and you always have a smile on your face. You have made me feel so at home and loved here and I can't thank you enough. I am so glad that you are a part of our lives."

"I wish I had a sister like you. Thank you for taking up the responsibility of taking care of us."

"I wouldn't want any other 'mom'."

"No matter the time of day, or how much homework you have yourself, you are there for us. I truly think that you have a genuine heart and you are here to support and pray for us."

"I honestly don't think I would have made it past the first week without you. I was ready to drop out and you were just so sweet and supportive when I talked to you that I knew I could get this degree. Thank you."

"Thanks for being so welcoming to us in a time full of sadness and fear. I'm sure my freshman year would not be the same without you."

"I don't know how you do everything and are still so sweet. You are going to be the BEST teacher and God is going to use you to do great things. WE LOVE YOU!"

All in all, we think you're the bees knees and pretty much the greatest thing since sliced bread. We can't wait for your dreams to come true. We have so much faith in you. We are praying for you. We love you, RA.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

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.
