20 Reasons I Could Never Date My Guy Best Friend
LeeAnn Gorecki

You hear so many stories about how girl and guy best friends fell in love, and now live happily ever after, and that’s great from them. However, that is definitely not in the cards for my best guy friend and I. He’s great, and will make some girl very happy someday, but it won't be me. Which I am more then okay with, he’s not my type. A lot of people, including my mom, asks why my guy best friend and I aren’t dating. There are plenty of reasons, and here’s a few of them:

1. He’s like my brother

2. He knows too much

3. He encourages some of my crazier ideas

4. We would both have way more miles on our cars from the late night drives

5. We would both get sick from all the cookie dough we would eat

6. We would never get anything accomplished

7. The grocery stores would run out of fruit snacks

8. We would have so many cats

9. And they would be fat

10. He has seen me with some pretty shitty guys

11. The kids would be pretty messed up

12. Other people would hate being around us

13. We would be at McDonald’s every day

14. The garbage would never get taken out

15. We would fail out of school

16. He feeds my princess ego

17. I know too much about him

18. We have too much blackmail on each other

19. We are too comfortable around each other

20. We would have no other friends because we hate people

I am glad to have you in my life, and couldn’t be more thankful to have a best friend like you. Thanks for always being down to complain about people, get dinner, or binge eat cookie dough.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.
