10 Things That Happen When Your Best Girl Friend Visits

Newstatesman.com

This past weekend, my best friend, Jennifer, came to visit and we had a fantastic weekend together! This is not the first time she’s visited and I noticed some things that always happen when we get together so, here are 10 things that happen when your best girl friend visits.

Also, in honor of Jennifer, all of the gifs in this list are from her favorite TV show, Friends!

1. Nothing productive gets done…

There's no time for homework. Or laundry. Or anything remotely responsible. You’re too busy hanging out and having fun!

2. Except maybe cleaning your room.

Or at least clearing off the clothes that are on your bed. They're all clean at least! (sorry mom)

3. Infinite cuddles

Quality cuddles make the world go 'round. Especially while Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets is on.

4. You act like complete fools… together.

It's not that weird after all because "you love me!" (From The One with All the Thanksgivings)

5. You do special things (a.k.a. things you wouldn’t normally do)

I actually cooked a REAL adult meal this weekend! And it was delicious if I do say so myself.

6. You get presents (sometimes)

We had a late Christmas celebration and we are not sorry one bit.

7. In my case, you absolutely HAVE to talk boys.

8. But in her case, weddings.

Side note: Planning a wedding has to be one of the most adult things you could possibly do...and the most fun and exciting.

9. You can actually physically be there for each other after what feels like ages.

Big hugs also make the world go 'round. You can never have enough hugs.

10 Money gets spent and no one knows how it happened.

And you both whine about spending money, but only after you’ve already spent it.

11. She has to leave…again.

Why does this have to happen? It's the absolute worst feeling.

We both already really miss each other, but we know that the other is just a phone call away whenever we need each other. We will see each other again soon enough! Thank you so much, Jen, for deciding that you wanted to be weird with me and for being the Monica to my Rachel. I can’t wait to see you again!

15 Things That Happen On Your Birthday

Do you have a small get-together or throw a big bash?

University of Southern California

4131

My birthday has never been my favorite holiday. I've found that I'm more excited to celebrate my friends' and family members' birthdays more than my own. I don't like being the center of attention, so I usually celebrate over dinner with a small group of family and friends. This way, I can enjoy myself naturally without feeling like I have to entertain everyone and make sure they are satisfied. In the past when I've had large parties, I was so nervous that people weren't perfectly content that I didn't enjoy myself at my own celebration.

Syllabus week doesn't exist.

Hunter College

College Informations

Most of us have already started the spring semester, and for those of you who haven't started yet, you suck.

It seems like coming back from winter break wouldn't really be a break all things considered, since we all come back to school and pick up right where we left off. We know exactly what to expect, yet we're unprepared every single time.

Things People Without A Typical 'Boy Name' or 'Girl Name' Know To Be True

All names should be "unisex names."

Tulane University

1652

There are tons of unisex names that are popular: Taylor, Alex, Bailey, etc. There are also numerous names that are used for both sexes, but they’re not seen as “unisex” yet. People are slowly becoming accustomed to the dual use of these names, but for the most part, in their minds they associate certain names with certain sexes. And that leaves those of us with these names in many awkward situations.

16 Secrets Anthropology Majors Never Admit To

You know that all of these things apply to you. You'll just never tell.

Washington College

CSU

I'm an anthropology major, and I love every minute of it. I couldn't tell you why, but I guess there's just something about studying different lifestyles that absolutely fascinates me. But anthropology majors definitely have our weird sides, especially when you go to a school that is filled with mostly Business and Bio majors. But us weirdos definitely have a lot in common, specifically these 16 things.
