Open Letter To My Friend With Low Self-Confidence

You are my best friend, my go-to, my person as they say in "Grey's Anatomy" and the fact that you don’t see yourself like I do is heartbreaking.

Well, guess what? It’s my turn to be your cheerleader.

You are kind beyond words. You would do anything for anyone. You take the time out of your day to help others, compliment people and ultimately brighten another person's day.

Not many folks can say that about themselves, you have made my day on so many occasions it is impossible to count. You are witty. I don’t think you truly realize how funny you are because you always have the perfect joke or comeback and they never fail to make me laugh.

You are encouraging. You are my cheerleader. You are always the first person to tell me not to give up. You are there for me in everything I do, telling me how awesome I am and how I will succeed no matter what.

You are extraordinary. I know that whatever you do, you will do with kindness, grace and intelligence.

Most of all I hope whatever you do, you do with confidence. You deserve to believe in yourself 100 percent of the time and even if you don't always feel completely 100 percent, just know I will always be there to boost you up. I know that you will not only succeed in all that you do but you will thrive.

birthday party

My birthday has never been my favorite holiday. I've found that I'm more excited to celebrate my friends' and family members' birthdays more than my own. I don't like being the center of attention, so I usually celebrate over dinner with a small group of family and friends. This way, I can enjoy myself naturally without feeling like I have to entertain everyone and make sure they are satisfied. In the past when I've had large parties, I was so nervous that people weren't perfectly content that I didn't enjoy myself at my own celebration.

College Informations

Most of us have already started the spring semester, and for those of you who haven't started yet, you suck.

It seems like coming back from winter break wouldn't really be a break all things considered, since we all come back to school and pick up right where we left off. We know exactly what to expect, yet we're unprepared every single time.

I'm serious

There are tons of unisex names that are popular: Taylor, Alex, Bailey, etc. There are also numerous names that are used for both sexes, but they’re not seen as “unisex” yet. People are slowly becoming accustomed to the dual use of these names, but for the most part, in their minds they associate certain names with certain sexes. And that leaves those of us with these names in many awkward situations.

I'm an anthropology major, and I love every minute of it. I couldn't tell you why, but I guess there's just something about studying different lifestyles that absolutely fascinates me. But anthropology majors definitely have our weird sides, especially when you go to a school that is filled with mostly Business and Bio majors. But us weirdos definitely have a lot in common, specifically these 16 things.

pale girl

Everyone has insecurities, that's just a fact. You didn't ask to be born this way. You didn't ask to inherit the one trait no one else in your family has. And you definitely didn't ask to be this ghostly white. But as soon as you've learned to live with it for a while (less wrinkles later on in life, right? right???) someone has to ruin it for you. They have to flaunt they're perfectly tanned body from Spring Break and hold their sun-kissed skin against yours. But I've had enough... here are the things that perpetually pale individuals are tired of hearing.
