14 Reasons Why Every Girl Needs A Gay Best Friend

All girls need girlfriends in their life, not just to keep them social but to keep them sane. Although lets be honest, girls are awful and quite frankly, a bit vicious especially towards one another. However, it's not often talked about what else a girl needs, and I'm not talking about that quote claiming "every blonde needs a brunette best friend," but what it should be: "every girl needs a gay best friend." Why, you may ask? I'll tell you why. He's dramatic, he's full of attitude, has a slight hatred for people, and he gets emotional about dumb things like food; in other words, he's exactly like you.

1. He will ALWAYS give you an honest opinion about an outfit.

Whether it's the color washing you out or the stripes are indeed making you look fat, he will always be the one to tell you what looks good and what does not look good. But have no fear because he will always make sure you leave the house looking flawless.

2. You will always have a go-to lunch or go-to coffee date.

And try not to get offended when you think the hot waiter is constantly checking on you guys because he's into you when he's actually flirting with him...(you know who you are).

3. He'll force you to go out (in a good way)...

People are pissing you off, work has been kicking your butt, and all you want to do is climb into your bed, but unfortunately, that's not an option because he knows that the best way to make up for a crappy week is to get dressed up and go out.

4. ...but he will also always be down for a movie and pigging out.

I promise there is no better guy than one who will watch "Bridesmaids," "A Walk To Remember" and "Hocus Pocus" while downing pizza, nachos and ice cream until you literally pass out.

5. You will always have a partner and wing-man.

Whether it's a wedding date, drinking game partner, or your shotgun rider/duet partner on long car rides full of jam sessions, you will never have to be alone.

6. He will always help you in any situation.

From calling you acting drunk asking you to come get him or helping you fix your shoe that broke at the club, he's always got you.

7. He will keep you updated on the latest gossip whether it be about celebrities or people that you know...

He could tell you what type of wax Kim Kardashian uses to do her eyebrows and also have the full story on why so and so broke up.

8. But he will keep your secrets till the day he dies.

You can tell him your biggest secret in the world and he'll go his whole life not telling a soul.

9. He will always take your side.

It doesn't matter who it is or what they did, if you hate them, he will hate them too.

10. He gives the best boy advice...

...and he will always be right in the end.

11. He is your go-to boyfriend when needed.

You're at the club and a guy is getting a little too touchy, don't worry, you're GBFF will always step in as a temporary "BF."

12. He always knows what to say depending on your mood.

"It's his loss," "those jeans make your butt look phenomenal," "do you want a hug?" "I brought you food!" and the list goes on. He won't leave you until you're OK.

13. He'll tell you what you need to hear.

Whether it's the opinion about the outfit or anything in general good or bad, he does it because he cares.

14. He'll always make you feel fabulous.

Whether you're bumming it with no makeup on or dressed to go out on a Friday night, he'll always appreciate and love you for you.

10 Thoughts Of A 5th Year Senior

What about those of us who don't do it all in four years?

"College will be the best four years of your life" is a phrase that we have all heard growing up. College is painted as a magical place to us while we are in high school. A place you go to learn, meet your best friends and probably have the time of your life while all of this is going down. Four whirlwind years, where everything that you've known changes and you start to learn what it means to live on your own, have a job, etc. But what about those of us who don't do this all in four years? Major changes, hard courses, switching schools, career paths changing, these are just a handful of factors that could extend your four years to five, six or seven. There is nothing wrong with taking extra time to graduate, but returning as a fifth-year is a little different. Most of your best friends have most likely graduated and moved and while you may be one of the oldest undergraduates on campus, you might feel as awkward as a freshmen. A world that became home and comfortable to you is still there but it's slightly different than you've known it to be and you have to find a groove to fall into. These are thoughts you'll have as you look ahead to returning to your college campus, with a victory lap planned.

Aubrey Plaza is one of my favorite humans in Hollywood. She's honest, blunt, unapologetic, and hilarious. I just started my sophomore year of college, and found that some of her best moments can accurately describe the start of the school year.

1. When your advisor tells you that you should declare a major soon.

2. Seeing the lost and confused freshmen and remembering that was you a short year ago, and now being grateful you know the ins and outs of the campus.

3. Going to the involvement fair to sign up for more clubs knowing that you are already too involved.

4. When you actually do the reading required for the first class.

5. Seeing your friends for the first time since last semester.

6. When you're already drowning in homework during syllabus week.

7. Realizing you don't have the same excitement for classes as you did as a freshman.

8. Going home and seeing people from high school gets weirder the older you get.

Dear Mom,

You took care of me and my brothers our entire lives and you still continue to! I will not be able to truly grasp all of the hard work that you put into this family until I create my own one day. But, I know that there are plenty of times I forgot to give you a simple thank you or an appreciative smile. I thank you for everything that you have done for me and will continue to do for me. Here are some examples of those times where you had my back and I forgot to pat your back for saving me:

College is hard. As people ages 18-22, we’re just trying to figure out what we’re doing with our lives, our careers, our eating habits, exercise routines, sleep patterns, and other necessities for adult life. We definitely don’t take proper care of ourselves; it’s basically impossible when we have essays, tests and readings due and somehow we’re supposed to eat right, exercise and sleep. We’re doomed to get sick. I have zero experience in science but when I get sick there are certain things I do to make myself better.
