To The Home Friend I Lost While At College

There's something I want you to know...

To The Home Friend I Lost While At College
M E G A N on Pinterest

I'm realizing now, it was inevitable to happen. I mean, you're at your university, making new friends, meeting new love interests, with a whole new city to explore. I'm miles away at my own new stomping grounds, doing the same thing.

I don't blame you, and I hope you don't blame me.

College is not only busy, it's just... different. Our lives were so in sync when we were in high school - we had the same classes, the same lunch period, the same free periods and the same friends. When we went off to college, a good time for me to pick up the phone and call you was a bad time for you, and vice versa.

And that's no one's fault.

I want you to know, though, that I think about you and our friendship a lot. You were the best example of a good friend, and I still see pieces of your character and personality in all of my college friends.

I cherish our memories and I know you do too. I'll often catch myself looking back at old pictures and smiling, or reminiscing on memories as I pass our old hangout spots. We spent so much time together you pretty much can't forget me.

It's been two years, and I don't know why I've let this wait for so long, but there's something I want you to know...

I am always here for you - whether it's tomorrow, or the day of college graduation when you're freaking out about moving back into your parent's house in our quiet little town. I'm here for you if you need someone to talk to, or need a ride home from the bar, or need to cry, or need someone to grab lunch with.

No matter how much college may have split us apart, I'll always be willing to put it behind us and get back together.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
