Are We Still Best Friends Forever?

Dear best friend,

What happened to us? We used to talk everyday, about all the important and stupid stuff. You knew everything about my life and I knew everything about yours. Now I feel like I don't even know you. Every time I see a post from you or hear something about you, all it does is make me sad. It makes me sad because I think of the people we used to be. College has changed us. Even though we're 188 miles away from each other I still thought we would talk. I thought I'd get all the stories about the amazing things you're doing. I thought you'd be curious about what's going on in my life. Yet, somehow here I am 188 miles away from you feeling like you don't care anymore.

I miss the times where we were never separate. We were the true definition of two peas in a pod. Your mom felt like a second mom to me and my family took you with open arms. I miss the days of wasting hours at the mall aimlessly walking around. The trips to JoAnn's to make blankets, even though we had a million (you can never be too warm). I miss the sleepovers that ended with you falling asleep early. Blasting Hunter Hayes and singing at the top our lungs not caring who heard us because we were having fun. I miss a lot of things that we used to do.

It hit me the other day that I shouldn't care as much as I do. But that's just the person I am. I don't send you a million text messages anymore because I don't want to be a bother. The last time we talked like best friends was Christmas break. I guess I'm just lost because I don't know what to do anymore. I don't know if you still want me in your life or if you just want to move on.

That one word has changed us so much. College has made us into different people. I guess it's just time for me to wake up and realize our friendship will never be like it was in high school. We've become too independent people, and as much as it sucks that we aren't as close as we were, I think a lot of people go through this. I hope that we can work on our friendship and try to make up for lost time, but I'm beginning to loose hope of being your best friend again.

If you want to work on our friendship just let me know. Even if it takes a long time. I'll still be here when you come back. You'll always be my best friend in my heart. Thanks for all those years, laughs, and countless memories.

Love,

Your best friend <3

7 Ways to Make Your Language More Transgender and Nonbinary Inclusive

With more people becoming aware of transgender and non-binary people, there have been a lot of questions circulating online and elsewhere about how to be more inclusive. Language is very important in making a space safer for trans and non-binary individuals. With language, there is an established and built-in measure of whether a place could be safe or unsafe. If the wrong language is used, the place is unsafe and shows a lack of education on trans and non-binary issues. With the right language and education, there can be more safe spaces for trans and non-binary people to exist without feeling the need to hide their identities or feel threatened for merely existing.

Blair Waldorf
Stop Hollywood

For those of you who have watched "Gossip Girl" before (and maybe more than just once), you know how important of a character Blair Waldorf is. Without Blair, the show doesn’t have any substance, scheme, or drama. Although the beginning of the show started off with Blair’s best friend Serena returning from boarding school, there just simply is no plot without Blair. With that being said, Blair’s presence in the show in much more complex than that. Her independent and go-getter ways have set an example for "Gossip Girl" fans since the show started and has not ended even years after the show ended. Blair never needed another person to define who she was and she certainly didn’t need a man to do that for her. When she envisioned a goal, she sought after it, and took it. This is why Blair’s demeanor encompasses strong women like her.

singing
Cambio

Singing is something I do all day, every day. It doesn't matter where I am or who's around. If I feel like singing, I'm going to. It's probably annoying sometimes, but I don't care -- I love to sing! If I'm not singing, I'm probably humming, sometimes without even realizing it. So as someone who loves to sing, these are some of the feelings and thoughts I have probably almost every day.
