A Letter to My Three Roommates

You are my family away from home and I cannot ask for a better family.

A Letter to My Three Roommates

Hey y'all,

I wanted to write this letter to tell you I appreciate all of you. When we first decided to move-in together, we were all so excited and now that the excitement has worn off and we have officially moved in, I wanted to say a few things.

First, I am sorry. I am sorry for all the times I will ask you to braid my hair. I am sorry for all the times I forget to flush the toilet and for the amount of hair I will shed. I am sorry for all the times I will interrupt your study sessions with the latest drama in my life. I am sorry for constantly texting you asking where you are because I am bored and alone in the room. I am sorry for all the times I will annoy you with my loud and obnoxious tendency to laugh at everything. I am sorry for my choice of Netflix movie and for finishing the season without you. I am sorry for the mornings I absolutely need your opinion on my outfit and throw a fit when I cannot find something. I am sorry for my random meltdowns when something does not go my way.

I am sorry for all of this, but more importantly, I am grateful for you putting up with it. I am thankful that whenever I need a shoulder to cry on, you are there. I am thankful for the times you make me coffee when I am stressed. I am thankful for your patience while I try outfit after outfit on. I am thankful you did my dishes and thankful you made dinner. I am thankful you put up with my crazy stories and my insane laughter. Thank you for always replying to me when I need you and for letting me in the building when I left my key in our room. Thank you for being my official plus 1 or plus 2 when I do not want to go somewhere alone. Thank you for the late nights of laughter and friendship. Thank you for searching through the dorm when I can't find something. Thank you for always being there.

There will be times where you hate me and wish I would just leave you alone. There will be times when I feel that way too. There will also be times when you feel like you are burdening me, but let me assure you that you are not. I love your presence and I love your unique personalities. You are my family away from home and I cannot ask for a better family.

With much love,

Your friend

We Heart It

Over the past decade, television has undergone a very crucial transition: the incorporation of female lead characters. Since it's a known fact that girls actually do run the world (Beyonce said so herself), it's time for the leading ladies of the small screen to get some credit. Without these characters, women would still be sitting in the background of our favorite shows. These women are not only trailblazers for female empowerment, but role models for women worldwide. With that, here are 15 of the smartest, sassiest ladies gracing our screens that remind us that women do, indeed, rule:

If you are like me, you have an interesting personality. Basically, you love to be sassy and snarky, gossip, and act like a total bitch (not really), but deep down, you are actually a very genuinely nice person. The idea of actually hurting someone truly makes you feel bad, and you probably have never actually hurt someone’s feelings because your kindness always shines through, even if you do not want it to. Not sure exactly what I would call this type of personality, but if you identify with it, here are some feelings you can undoubtedly relate to.
