4 Things You are Tired of Hearing If Your Closest Friends are Guys
Stacey Labissiere

My favorite people in the world have to be my friends. They have supported me through some really tough times. I mean coming into college my first two years I struggled trying to find the right people to let into my inner circle. Some were great others...... not so much. But the best thing that ever happened to me in college was finding my male best friends. These guys have been a huge support system for me. From randomly coming to my room to ask me if I'm okay to coming up with really stupid nicknames to call me. If it weren't for them some of my greatest laughs and memories would have never occured. I am grateful for every moment that i have spent with them. That being said there are a few things that a girl who hangs out with a lot of guys is tried of hearing and know all to well

1. "So you seriously wouldn't date him?"

What part about best friend do you not understand. Like I am around them way to often for me to want to pursue them romantically. Like they are the epitome of the term "brother from another mother"

2. "So it isn't weird being friends with a guy"

I don't see how being friends with a guy would be weird. Like what about it exactly makes it weird. We still act the same wahy that same sex friends act.

3. "Girls and Guys can't just be friends.."

Well my friends that is where you are wrong because I think opposite gender friendships lack alot of the drama that same gender friends do. Just because we are the opposite sex does not mean that we cannot relate to the other on a personal level.

4. "It doesn't get awkward between you guys?"

how would it get..... you know what forget it

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

Happy Birthday Cake

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?

So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.
