Missing you, Em
Emma Looby

I am very thankful for all my friends. I love each and every one of them. I feel very grateful that I have such great friendships both at home and at school and I don't know how I got so lucky to have so many loving people in my life. Right now, I am 247 miles from one of my best friends and I am missing her like crazy. She deserves to know how grateful I am and how proud I am of her.

Dear Em,

I have no idea what I would do without you. Right now, we are only four hours apart, but the separation anxiety is so real. I want to tell you how proud I am of you for everything you've accomplished this past year. I watched you kick Anatomy class' butt, you took an important leadership role in our sorority, you are navigating your way through your faith and beliefs, you went abroad and explored insanely beautiful parts of Europe that held important, sentimental value, and you have remained the most supportive, loving, and loyal best friends I could ever ask for.

I still find it insane that we not only share the same name, but nearly all the same thoughts. We always say we each make up half of one whole brain and although we joke about it, I'm starting to think we do actually share a brain. I can always count on you to be there for me and somehow you always give the right advice and lead me in the best direction.Our friendship is one of the major reasons I can tolerate being 800 miles from home- I always have a sister right by my side. I love you to pieces.

Always remember: she got off the plane.

Love, Em

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.
