You know what's cool and confusing and pretty all at the same time? Stars. Here are ten reasons why stargazing makes for a great reason to venture out of the house on an average (cloudless) night...

1. You get to lay down while you look at them.

2. Stargazing makes you realize how incredibly mind-blowing space is.

3. You can actually really see constellations.

4. Millions of years ago people saw the same moon and stars that we do today, and that's crazy to think about.

5. You get to appreciate the quietness of nighttime and peacefulness of darkness.

6. Life doesn't seem so crazy and stressful when you're laying on a blanket looking at something extremely beautiful.

7. It's a beautiful sight that is completely free of charge.

8. You can do it with someone else, or by yourself.

9. You can also see other planets.

10. Stargazing can make you feel incredibly tiny, but somehow you're totally OK with it.

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.

I'll admit it, I have a condition called RBF or, if you will, Resting Bitch Face.
