We all have one; that one best friend who absolutely refuses to give your family their personal space.

For this friend, your entire home is their oyster. They happily eat the food out of your pantry, put their bare feet up on your coffee table, and throw curse words around your parents like it's MTV. However, how you view this friend varies based on your status in your own best friend's home.

Here are 12 sure-fire signs that you and your best friend's families have merged into one.


1. You don't ask permission to come over, you just walk inside the house.

2. You never hesitate to ask for food at each other's houses. Instead, you can literally go into their kitchen and grab whatever you want.

4. You get an automatic invite to any family parties or events.

And you never feel out of place because you already know the extended family.

5. You always get asked if you two are sisters when you go out with their family and you secretly love it.

Ironically, you guys actually look nothing alike.

6. At this point, both your parents have even become good friends.

7. You have easily spent hours planning out elaborate vacations together, and actually go on them.

8. You can spend the entire day watching Netflix in their living room without feeling bored.

9. You have been snowed in together for multiple days on end and didn't feel an urge to pull out each other's hair.

In fact, it was so much fun you wish it could have lasted longer.

10. You call each other's parents Mom and Dad.

11. Your best friend's parents have given you valuable life advice from the heart and vice versa.

12. You're both always welcome at each other's houses anytime. No exceptions.

Blair Waldorf

The "Gossip Girl" series may be over, but Blair Waldorf's iconic character lives in our hearts forever. Blair was the queen of the Upper East Side, and a character you either loved or hated. She taught us everything we needed to know about life, love and of course, how to score a Chuck Bass. So the next time you feel a bit lost and are in need of guidance, look no further than to the Queen B herself.

As I spend my Sunday avoiding my homework and other adult responsibilities, I realized that I've watched this series over and over about a million times. Sadly, there isn't a Blair quote I don't know, so I came up with a list of a few favorites. You know you love her...xoxo

College is an endless cycle of crappy, sleepless nights, tedious, boring lectures, and hours of never-ending piles of homework.

Summer: a time (usually) free from school work and a time to relax with your friends and family. Maybe you go on a vacation or maybe you work all summer, but the time off really does help. When you're in college you become super close with so many people it's hard to think that you won't see many of them for three months. But, then you get that text saying, "Hey, clear your schedule next weekend, I'm coming up" and you begin to flip out. Here are the emotions you go through as your best friend makes her trip to your house.

Winter break is over, we're all back at our respective colleges, and the first week of classes is underway. This is a little bit how that week tends to go.

The professor starts to go over something more than the syllabus

You get homework assigned on the first day of class

There are multiple group projects on the syllabus

You learn attendance is mandatory and will be taken every class

Professor starts chatting about their personal life and what inspired them to teach this class

Participation is mandatory and you have to play "icebreaker games"

Everybody is going out because its 'syllabus week' but you're laying in bed watching Grey's Anatomy

Looking outside anytime past 8 PM every night of this week

Nobody actually has any idea what's happening this entire week

Syllabus week is over and you realize you actually have to try now...or not

Now it's time to get back into the REAL swing of things. Second semester is really here and we all have to deal with it.

Whether you specialized in ringing people up or preparing the food, if you worked at Panera Bread it holds a special place in your heart. Here are some signs that you worked at Panera in high school.

1. You own so many pairs of khaki pants you don’t even know what to do with them

Definitely the worst part about working at Panera was the uniform and having someone cute come in. Please don’t look at me in my hat.
