To My Roommate, Best Friend And Soul Mate, Who, Coincidentally, Are All The Same Person
Holly Barnett

I am sure you have read articles "To My Roommate" and "To My Best-Friend" but sometimes your roommate is your best friend. And sometimes they are your soul-mate. I have a theory that people have multiple soul mates. People that come into your life and change it in ways you didn't know you needed it. So here is a note to my roommate, best friend and soul mate.

Dear roomie,

Hi, Ily.

Thanks for always being there.

Thanks for always going to get Mexican food with me even though sometimes you don't want it because I make you eat it 4 times a week.

Thanks for being my doctor when I have a rash and you look at and you tell me its just barbeque sauce on my leg.

You don't judge me when you find weird sauces on my leg that probably came from the couch we love so much.

You are always down to watch reality tv shows that do nothing to stimulate our brains but make us laugh.

You are the funniest person I know. I am lucky because I get to see all the funny stuff that happens at 4 am when no one else will ever get to see.

You respect my nap times at random parts of the day and let me sleep for 4 hours even though I have multiple assignments due.

You get me like no one else. Random outbreaks of dance moves that look so synchronized you would have thought we rehearsed them but we just click. When we met I would have never thought we would be planning our weddings. Thanks for talking about my wedding as if I will actually get married and someone other than you will laugh at my jokes.

You know me better than anyone.

You tell me all your secrets and trust me. It is hard to find someone who you can do anything with but I found you. Most people hate their roommates. Or they just get along. But we thrive.

You do the dishes and that's why God is saving you a spot in Heaven because I hate the dishes.

When I am feeling down, just a hug from you makes my day a little better.

When you text me "hope you have a good day" and I respond at 2 because I just woke up you let it slide.

You don't care that I always lose our streak on snap.

You listen to me talk about boys and set me straight when I need to be told no.

My favorite thing is hearing you laugh from your room and then getting a notification that you sent me a tweet and we can laugh together even though we aren't together.

I could go on forever but I need to save some words for my toast at your wedding one day. You are the most wonderful human. You deserve the world. One time you told me "I don't know what I did in my past life to deserve you" well I feel the exact same way. You are my rock, my pal, my dance partner for life, my weird friend that I always bring to family events, my exercise once every two weeks buddy, my dinner date for life, my roommate, my best friend, my soul-mate.

Love,

The girl that sleeps across the hall from you

Summer: a time (usually) free from school work and a time to relax with your friends and family. Maybe you go on a vacation or maybe you work all summer, but the time off really does help. When you're in college you become super close with so many people it's hard to think that you won't see many of them for three months. But, then you get that text saying, "Hey, clear your schedule next weekend, I'm coming up" and you begin to flip out. Here are the emotions you go through as your best friend makes her trip to your house.

Winter break is over, we're all back at our respective colleges, and the first week of classes is underway. This is a little bit how that week tends to go.

The professor starts to go over something more than the syllabus

You get homework assigned on the first day of class

There are multiple group projects on the syllabus

You learn attendance is mandatory and will be taken every class

Professor starts chatting about their personal life and what inspired them to teach this class

Participation is mandatory and you have to play "icebreaker games"

Everybody is going out because its 'syllabus week' but you're laying in bed watching Grey's Anatomy

Looking outside anytime past 8 PM every night of this week

Nobody actually has any idea what's happening this entire week

Syllabus week is over and you realize you actually have to try now...or not

Now it's time to get back into the REAL swing of things. Second semester is really here and we all have to deal with it.

Whether you specialized in ringing people up or preparing the food, if you worked at Panera Bread it holds a special place in your heart. Here are some signs that you worked at Panera in high school.

1. You own so many pairs of khaki pants you don’t even know what to do with them

Definitely the worst part about working at Panera was the uniform and having someone cute come in. Please don’t look at me in my hat.

You're pretty much feeling yourself. New haircut, clothes, shoes, everything. New year, new you, right? You're ready for this semester to kick off.

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.
