16 Things Tomboys Can Relate To

Once a tomboy, always a tomboy.

For as long as I can remember, I've always had a tomboy mindset. I went through the girly phase in high school, because I thought that was what I was supposed to do. But now, I embrace my tomboy and don't really care about "being a girl." Whether you asked for a skateboard for Christmas, or wanted to go out for the football team; every tomboy grew up the same — being different. Here are things every tomboy growing up can relate to:

1. You hate manicures.

Whats the point when they're just gonna get chipped tomorrow anyway?

2. You'd rather wear no makeup.

Contouring? What?

3. You've used the same makeup brands since grade school.

Walmart brand > Sephora.

4. You use the word "dude" & "bro" in every sentence.

Because apparently not everyone does the same.

5. When you try to dress up you feel uncomfortable.

Your friends do too, because they're confused why you look normal.

6.You feel the most comfortable in sweats and t-shirts.

You've even worn them to the bar on a Saturday night before.

7. You use the phrase, "I don't care," 50 times a day.

Whether its where you go eat, where you go out at night, or what movie to watch. You just don't care.

8. Your childhood consists of you constantly playing a sport.


From basketball, to softball, soccer, bowling, or lacrosse; you would've even played football if your parents let you.

9. You don't get scared easily

Scary movies, haunted houses, cockroaches in your bathroom. You got this.

10. Growing up, Monday nights were for WWE

When you went to a live filming of the show, you were the happiest 13 year-old ever.

11. Your childhood clothing consisted of board shorts and tank tops.

Hurley, Dickies, DC, and Element were your go to brands.

12. You wish the boys took you seriously.

And most of the time they do...but not always.

13. You asked your parents as a kid to get you involved into drag-racing or motocross, but they didn't budge.

Mostly because Disney kept coming out with movies about girls in a guy sport and you wanted to be just like them.

14. You don't understand how some girls won't drink beer because it "has too many calories"

Beer is heaven on earth. These girls be cray.

15. You don't understand when your friends get in petty fights with their boyfriend.

He doesn't post enough of you on Insta? He hasn't talked to you in 2 hours? Calm down, ladies.

16. Your friends always tell you to fix your eyebrows.

Because you never touch them. You kind of forget that they're even there. Plus, you'd rather spend your money on beer than your face.

Dear High School Friend Group,

My sweet angels, where would I be without you guys. We all grew up together because we either met in middle school or high school and watched each other grow up and get "old." We got to go to prom together and then graduate together. Then watched each other as we continued our lives in college, joining sororities and meeting people who will impact our lives forever. It all has happened so fast.

Oh college, we can’t live with you, but we can’t live without you. It’s a love/hate relationship, really. College is an experience that no one can ever prepare you for, and maybe that’s a good thing. You never really expect any of the things that college encompasses until you are there. College is fun, but don’t have too much fun. C’s get degrees, but they don’t get you into graduate school.

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

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.
