The 10 Best Things About Your Best Friend
People's Choice

We all have that one friend who understands us more than anything. They laugh at our jokes (even if they're not funny) and help us when we need it the most. Most importantly, they understand you better than anybody else. Whether it's about the stupid boy who won't text you back or the stupid thing you saw on the internet that you just NEED to show them, they get it and that's why they're your best friend. We all have our person that helps us through anything and they mean the world to us even though we want to kill them 99.9% of the time.

1. The first moment we realize that this person is probably our soulmate and that we need to inform them about every aspect of our life.

2. When you come up with a seemingly horrible idea or plan, but they support you no matter what the stakes (even if you'll both probably end up in jail).

3. Feeling absolutely crazy about something you did, but they do all the same things you do.


4. When you overhear them calling somebody else their best friend, and you feel like they're betraying you on some level.

5. When you're trying to explain your bond to other people, but nobody really understands why you're so close.


6. Being able to explain how you actually feel about a boy and not having to sugar coat everything so you don't sound nuts.

7. Getting over a fight and realizing how stupid everything truly was when you decide to apologize.

8. When you don't see your best friend in over a week and you finally get to see their face again.

9. When you two are way too close, and all your other friends basically consider you more of a couple than you and your significant other.


10. The greatest thing about your best friend is being able to go to them after a long day and just knowing they'll always be there for you no matter how serious, dumb, or small the problem at hand is.


Best friends are basically a gift to us, they're normally better then our significant others and have us laughing until we can't breathe. Without our soulmates we wouldn't be who we are and would most likely be crazy or in jail. At least with them by our sides we have a cellmate to laugh with us about all the crazy things we did that night or cry with us when it's just been a rough day. Best friends are the most important people to be placed in our lives because we finally have a person who understands why we do what we do. At the end of the day, don't forget to give your best friend a hug or a high five if their the friend that hates being touched, and thank them for continuously supporting you in everything you do no matter how extreme it probably is.

8 Things I Realized After My First Semester In College

Actually, Kylie Jenner, 2018 is the year of realizing things.

The first semester of college is famous for being one of the most difficult transitions of one's young adult life. You're thrown into a completely new area where the majority of the people surrounding you are strangers in an academic environment that's much more challenging then what you've grown accustomed to for the past twelve years. On top of that, you probably share a room with another person (or even multiple people) on the lumpiest "mattress" you've ever slept on.

With this change comes a lot of questions: what do I want to major in? What am I passionate about? Is what I'm passionate about something I'm actually good at? Why does the bathroom smell like cranberry juice and vodka? What is that thing at the bottom of the shower drain?

6 Unrealistic Expectations Society Has For Young Adults

Don't let the thesaurus-inspired vocabularies in our résumés fool you. We're actually just big kids.

Well over four feet tall and 100 pounds in weight, many of us "young adults" of the world still consider ourselves children. Big, working, college-attending, beer-drinking children. We may live on our own, know how to cook noodles, and occasionally use a planner, but don't be fooled; the youthful tendencies that reside within us still make their way into our daily lives. From choosing to stay up until 3:00 a.m. playing video games on a school night to going out in 30 degree weather without a coat, we still make decisions that our parents and grandparents would shake their heads at in disappointment. So why are we expected to know exactly how to be a wise, professional, sensible adult? It's not that we're irresponsible (for the most part, anyway). It's that we are young, inexperienced, and still have the sought-after, enthusiastic mentality that we can do and be whatever we want, which has not yet been tarnished by the reality of the world. These are just a few of the unrealistic expectations that society has for young adults.
