4 Reasons For Having That One (Or Couple Of) Amazing Friends In Your Life
Jenna Szczensy

Everyone has friends in their lives, but we all have those friends that we can completely count on and trust with everything. Having too many friends can hinder relationships that you already have with your friends. You might have friends who don’t like your other friends or vice versa but what are you to do about it because, you love all of them. Your friends are always there when you need help with difficult decisions or just having a bad day, seeing their amazing smile or hearing their voice makes the day so much better. Here are four things that THOSE friends will be there for you always:

1. BRIGHTEN UP YOUR DAY WITH WORDS OF ENCOURAGEMENT.

Every time I need some encouragement I know that certain friend will be the best people to go to for the advice, guidance, encouragement I may need on situations. Having those friends, you can go to can help in all areas no matter what. I know that I can go to my mother for advice, but that’s motherly advice, sometimes we just need friend advice. Having those friend who believes the same things you do and has possibly gone through the same things as you in her lifetime, helps so much.

2. ALWAYS MAKES YOU LAUGH.

Sometimes we just have really bad days and need something or someone to make us laugh. That friend is the one to go to no matter what the conversation topic is, she knows how to make your day so much better, even if it is just a smile can change your day. Simple words from those friend can impact your life in different ways. Those friends should know what makes you laugh and enjoy the time you are spending with them immediately no matter what.

3. WILL LISTEN AND TELL YOU THE TRUTH AT ALL TIMES, NO MATTER THE TIME OR DAY.

Having those friend who will just sit there and listen to every word that you say, even if it comes with tears or yelling, she won’t judge you in any way. First of all, those kind of friend wouldn’t judge you anyways so if they do, then those friends aren’t your TRUE friend. Even if it is midnight and you can’t sleep, they are easily a call away or a walk into the other room and will stay up and listen to you. They will wait till you are finish with everything, then say what is placed on their heart to tell you about everything you said. I know that sometimes we really don’t want to hear what they have to say but it could easily change your life and makes you realize things for the better. Being told the truth from a friend/s that means the most to you is something else that makes those friends the most amazing. From instance, having a friend who has gone through sometimes that you are going through, she will have more advice than someone is hasn’t gone through that situation. Each friend has different values to them such as advice, guidance, truths, goals, and inspirations in life that you can learn from.

4. PART OF YOUR FAMILY.

Brothers and sisters are always there for us but they kind of have to be, but with those friends anytime they come over, everything is great. No one feels uncomfortable including your siblings, they get along great with your siblings and goof around like they live in the house, too. My mom knows that when certain friends are coming over or stay the night, she knows what they like to eat for breakfast and/or dinner. Those friends fit perfectly in your life no matter what your home situations is or even theirs. Everyone is there for each other and THAT IS A TRUE AMAZING FRIEND.

mu bucket list

I was sitting at my cubicle, now that I am an adult, looking at the rain pouring down on the windowsill, bumming on life, wishing for the rain to just stop for a full day.

There are moments where we count down the hours until work is over and how many more days till the weekend, and this many weeks until something exciting. Or something like that? Well, I was bumming because my next day off from work is not until Memorial Day weekend, which is not until the end of May. And since this is my first year out of college being a “real person,” I am totally missing the winter, spring and summer breaks. I am sure all of us have felt this way even if just for a hot minute…

It's officially December. There is less than a month of 2023, and I still feel like yesterday was summer. Now comes the merriest time of the year, the Christmas season.

Everyone has been waiting for this time of year since mid-October (which is way too early, in my opinion) or before. It's a time of love, family, memory-making, and gift-giving. A lot of times when I ask friends and family what they want, I get a lot of "I don't know" or "I don't care."

1. You’ve slipped and fallen on the ice at least once.

The winters at Kent are brutal, and while the heated sidewalks and some great snow boots are always a help, there’s no chance you won’t bust it on the ice at least once in your four plus years at school.

Christmas is literally so close. We can almost taste it. But there is just one thing standing between you and the big day: FINALS. It's not the studying, lack of sleep, last minute cram sessions or crappy food intake that is the worst... but the fact that you cannot focus because, well, CHRISTMAS. How do professors expect you to focus when Christmas is soooo soon. For all my fellow Christmas lovers out there, I feel your pain.
