There are always three things I need in life. A great anti-aging moisturizer, great conversation, and a mind blowing book. Okay, maybe just a good book will suffice. But one thing I forget I always need is a good friend. In the years that I have been in college, I have realized the joy of being completely independent and never letting anyone do anything for you because have someone else do something when you can do it yourself and perfectly, I might add. But this semester has had me so off kilter that I have had to realize I can't do it all by myself no matter how hard i try. At some point, there comes a time in a girl's life when she realizes that she has to become a little less independent and a little more available.
Being in a sorority teaches you not only to trust no one but also to trust someone because without my chapter I would not have found my people. The select few who will be there for me at all hours of the day even if I don't want to admit that I need help or that I'm breaking down because then I would have to admit that I am not as strong as I pretend to be. Either way, my friends are the ones who will surprise me with cannoli and remind me to eat on a daily basis because I am always so busy that eating is the last thing on my mind.
No matter how much I try to distance myself from the world, I always have my friends to pick me up and make me realize that I am amazing when sometimes I forget that myself. So, there are always three things I need; a great anti-aging moisturizer, great conversation, and life long friends.
