Shout out to Leslie Knope for showing people what it's like to be a great person.

1. She cares


There are a lot of words that could be used to describe Leslie Knope, but caring is the first one that comes to my mind. She would do anything for her friends and her community and that makes her a great human being.

2. She's hilarious

There have been multiple times where I am laughing out loud for a while because of a joke or situation that Leslie puts herself in. She doesn’t take life too seriously and is able to make fun of herself, which is an admirable quality.

3. She never takes no for an answer

Leslie is strong and courageous and will fight for what she wants no matter what.

4. She stands up for what she believes in

This point goes along with the last point, but Leslie Knope is firm in her beliefs and will stand up for those beliefs. I think that it is so important to know what you stand for, and Leslie is a great role model.

5. Strong appreciation for breakfast food

Breakfast food is the best meal of the day and Leslie will eat 10 waffles at any point of the day. That is why she is the ultimate human.


6. Mentally Tough

No matter who gives her crap about what she’s doing for the city or her policies while she’s in office, she never backs down.


7. Friendship comes first

She loves her friends so so so much and would do anything for them. She gives them care packages, tells them how wonderful they are, and cares about them more than they know.


8. She dedicates 100 percent of herself to what she loves

Leslie loves nothing more than helping the community and making people happy. She wants to do it every minute of every day, and that makes her the great person she is.


9. She cares about herself and her well being

Even though Leslie is busy all the time, she still knows when she needs to take time out for herself.

10. She's enthusiastic about life

Leslie is just excited about living life. Things may be hard in her life, but she is still excited to her job and form new relationships.

Thanks for being you, Leslie.

1. You don't have to feel guilty about flirting with customers for tips (or just for shits and giggles).

2. You can be obnoxiously flirtatious with anyone you want. You are free to be that girl that flirts with everybody and makes 'em all smile (it's especially fun when the guy is as cute as Collin Jost). No shame.

3. Making random men nervous with your superior beauty and intense eye contact just for the hell of it is really amusing and empowering.

4. No one gives two poops if ya legs are hairy (your man shouldn't either but *Kermit the Frog meme* That's none of my business)

5. The toilet seat will remain down.

6. There's more money to spend on yourself.

7. There's always this secret butterfly in your tummy that marvels at the possibility that when you go out this weekend you're gonna meet someone super handsome/wonderful/prince-like and have this moment of dazzling dalliance.

8. Nothing is that serious...you can take it all with a grain of salt...you don't owe anybody anything.

9. You can dance with anyone and everyone...or no one (Hello frat boi w/ glasses, I see you).

10. You don't have to fluff anyone's ego but your own.

11. Free drinks and dinners from single guys (It's not taking advantage if they're offering; a girl's gotta eat).

12. You have more time to learn how to love and improve yourself rather than constantly pouring your energy into another person.

13. You don't have to sacrifice your cheesy Jen Aniston rom-coms and Gilmore Girls for his Fast and Furious/other dumb action movie featuring blonde that is only in the movie to supply a relationship to the male lead and to make him look more masculine/empowered in juxtaposition (In other words, you don't have to deal with a guy being a crabby Patty while you watch your cute movies).

14. You can daydream about what your future husband may be doing right now (and not get stressed/guilty out because you're not picturing your current boyfriend that's crazy about you as your future husband).

15. There is more time to be spent with your girlfriends.

Girls Night In
Milk + Blush

We've all been there - you've been saying since Tuesday after French that this weekend is the weekend. You're finally going to break out those new heels and actually put on eyeliner on and make this Friday night be one for the memory books! That is, of course, until Girls Night Out turned into...Girls Night In.

Whether you believe astrology is a legitimate "science" or not, we have all found ourselves looking at our horoscopes from time to time. The 12 astrological signs all fall under one of four elements: air, water, earth, or fire. Air signs are rational, social, and love to communicate with others. Water signs are are emotional, intuitive, and mysterious. Fire signs tend to be passionate, creative, and adventurous. Earth signs are conservative, realistic, and loyal.

Each sign is determined by the relative positions of celestial bodies to ourselves at our moment of birth, which is said to influence our personalities. Find your zodiac GIF below, based on the traits and characteristics provided by each sign.

If you haven't read the first part of this, I would highly suggest to, specifically because the Public Service Announcement placed in the beginning of that article still applies. If you don't feel like reading part one, I will try to cover it quickly. Basically, long story short, I am a pretty boring person and lead a pretty ordinary life. Due to this, please do not expect for the things I consider ridiculous to be what others may deem it. I promise that each of these I have done with a complete sane, mildly bored, brain. With all of this being said, please enjoy the semi-absurd things I have been lead to do in the second semester of my freshman year at college.

College is supposed to be one of the best times of your life. However, it is also one of the toughest transitions to make. There is so much anticipation and excitement leading up to moving into college. It doesn’t truly hit you until move in day when your parents say their final goodbyes and you see their car drive away. You truly are on your own. I was blessed to meet my best friends within the first week of school. Your college friends are so important and here’s why:
