An Open Letter To My Maid Of Honor
Marisa Vanzant

Dear Maid of Honor:

Thank you. Honestly I could probably end the letter right there, but that would be kind of mean, and I have so much more I can say. We've known each other for over two years, but it seems like a lifetime has gone by in those two years. We became best friends. We lived together. We went on "friend dates" because we were both lonely. You played a part in me meeting my fiance. You have changed my life in countless ways, and I can never thank you enough. You're always there for me when I need you, whether it be to ask if I'm being crazy about something, to ask you to take a shift or switch with me for work, to take engagement photos, or to help make my save the dates. I know I can count on you for anything.

We met during our first semester as freshmen in college. Thankfully, we had two classes together. We were in the same lab group in Q200, which brought us even closer together. We bonded over stupid boys, unfair professors, and typical college freshmen problems. We cried to each other when life got hard, or when a family member passed away. I always know I can trust in you, and I hope you know the same for me.

Moving onto the move in: We lived together for three months. I will always look back on last summer as my transition into adulthood, and the cementing of our forever friendship. There's nothing quite like spending an entire summer with your best friend, going on midnight cruises or out of town shopping trips all the time. Yes, we were broke, but yes, we had a great time going there.

Thank you for being my Maid of Honor. I know you'll be there to help me send invites, keep track of guest lists, make decorations, do my makeup, help me pee in my wedding dress, and most importantly, keep me sane. I can't wait to hear your speech, and it will be an honor to have you standing next to me on my big day.

Thank you best friend.

Sincerely,

Me

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.
