friendship
C.S Lewis got it right: friendship is born when one person says to another: "What! You too? I thought I was the only one!"

Wild is my favorite word. It encompasses a senseless, lawless freedom that I craved long before I could even breathe. Wild is the waves of the ocean, wild is the stars scattered across an endless night sky. Wild is the primal nature that grows within every human. Wild is insatiable, wild is untamable. Wild is, and will forever be, the greatest gift the world has ever seen.

The Favorite Five
I have a tendency to tell a lot of people that they're my favorite and recently I may have started a war within a group of my friends...whoops. But these five are separate from that situation. They're different. With Noah, Elizha, Paul, Mason and Cameron, it's actually emotionally impossible to choose my favorite out of the five of them. I love each of them equally and separately. Yes, I am aware that that makes no sense. The five of them mean a lot to me. I'm not exactly sure why I'm writing this chapter, everything that's being written has been bothering me for a while, so I had a feeling I'd write it eventually. Each of them has a song attached to their name. It's up there because that's a song I love that reminds me of them.

You can feel it in your gut when something’s missing. You want to run away from that feeling, because you want to convince yourself that everything’s fine, that you’re fine, and that you have everything you need. I was that girl. I was sure of the fact that my heart was completely intact, and I didn’t need anything else to complete it.

I never quite gave this one enough credit. I chased a lot of things in high school—especially people. I had an unexplainable need for certain people to see me. I don’t know why I wanted it. I’m not sure why I needed it, but for some reason, I thought I did. So that’s what I focused on. I did everything in my power to get what I thought I wanted, and in time, I began to miss what was right in front of me.

I had to take your entire chapter and write it all over again. When I composed the rough draft, I had no idea that you would mean as much to me as you do now. You are not a safe place or a sheltered space to hide away in. You are the only solid ground I can stand on. Without you, anything that makes me who I am would cease to exist.

One Tree Hill is a show that quite literally changed the game for me. I started applying every line to every aspect of my life. I found a piece of myself in every character, every story line. There are days where I’ll finish the series and start it all over again.

Running Away from Your Problems
Have you ever just wanted to run away from home? Well I have, and as a matter of fact, I did. I know people tell you not to run away from your problems, but I did run away from my problems. My problems all started when I found out my best friend turned into a back stabber...

My Uphill Battle with Friendship
Since I was a kid, I’ve had trouble making and keeping good friends. Even in the first grade one day, everyone was writing one of those “All About Me” books and we were told to write about our friends. At the end of the project, when everyone read their books aloud, I was not to be found on this page from any of my thirty one classmates.

5 Ways Having a Roommate Has Made Me a Better Person
I will be straightforward. I was raised as an only child, thus, I can be an inconsiderate brat with sharing issues. But after living with a roommate (whom I am lucky enough to also call a friend) for the last 9 months, I have become a better person in (at the very least) 5 ways. And to many of you out there, these are not particularly noteworthy ways; but I am finding that it's the little things that define who we are as people. I am here to appreciate those little things.

Thought of the Day
Friendships. They’re weird as fuck, one minute a person is just another person in a room, then maybe a colleague or classmate or simply a stranger in a bar. Then boom. You pick one and just go with it, you have many so you can choose which one you want to invest time and effort in. Some are funny, others are kind whilst some are smart and some, well some are all of the above. Fundamentally you find a person who makes you happy when you’re with them, who brings something extra to your life that makes the effort to spend time with them, message them and go places with them all worth it. Some last months others years, an unspoken hierarchy in your head, the ones you’d drop anything for and the ones you tolerate because they only a dick 70% of the time.
