20 Reasons We All Want to be Jessa

We're all a bunch of Hannah's, Marnie's and there's always the occasional Shosh's. But deep inside all of us, there's a Jessa.

Feb 03, 2015

Even if you live under a rock (I'm sure those all have wifi now), then you've heard of HBO's GIRLS. For those of you without a wifi connection underneath those little rocks, it's a show about four friends out of college trying to survive the transition into adulthood in New York City.

It doesn't sound like anything, but it is EVERYTHING. Creator/writer/producer/actress Lena Dunham has given us an unbelievable group of friends to vicariously live our lives through the past four seasons.

There's Hannah, who is subtly the most vein person on the Earth; there's Marnie, who is a perfectionist struggling to keep it all together; there's little Shoshanna, a doe-eyed confused college grad whose peppiness is enough for a thousand people. Last but definitely not least, there's Jessa.

Jessa is the whimsical free spirit who does not give the slightest sh*t about anything. She says whatever she wants, does whatever she wants, and has some vague European accent we all wish we had. Not to mention she's a walking Anthropology advertisement.

1. She does not listen to anyone's rules, so don't even bother with her.

2. She digs deeps and asks the real questions you're afraid to hear.

3. She does things on her own time, all the time. The place doesn't matter.

4. She knows that every mistake makes for a great tale, so you really can't be ashamed of anything.

5. She's honest about her feelings on dating...

6. ... And blatantly honest about everything else.

7. She's always there to encourage her friends to calm the hell down about life. Seriously, Hannah, relax.

8. She's way too cool for your stupid social media.

9. You actually do. Not. Mess. With. Jessa.

10. She understands that jobs are the worst thing to happen to a 20-something.

11. She's independent as hell.

12. Jessa parties pretty frickin' hard. Be thankful we don't go to college with her.

13. She will be that friend to take your phone and text the guy you're too afraid of. Cause Jessa doesn't give a damn.

14. She's not afraid to be vulnerable sometimes.

15. She's always by her friends' side.

16. She knows that she's doing a favor to any man she gives the priveldge of dating.

17. She'll call you out on your stupid clothing choices. Because she's probably dressed better than you.

18. She can put on a happy face... but only when she has to.

19. If you make her angry, she will let you know immediately.

20. She is queen. The most fabulous of them all.

If I have learned one thing in my lifetime, it is that friends are a privilege. No one is required to give you their company and yet there is some sort of shared connection that keeps you together. And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.

College is a great place to meet people, especially through Greek life. If you look closely at sororities, you'll quickly see there are many different types of girls you will meet.

1. The Legacy.

Her sister was a member, her mom was a member, all of her aunts were members, and her grandma was a member. She has been waiting her whole life to wear these letters and cried hysterically on bid day. Although she can act entitled at times, you can bet she is one of the most enthusiastic sisters.

Every kid in college and/or high school dreams of summer the moment they walk through the door on the first day back in September. It becomes harder and harder to focus in classes and while doing assignments as the days get closer. The winter has been lagging, the days are short and dark, and no one is quite themselves due to lack of energy and sunlight. Let's face it: life is ten times better in the summertime.
