You are a wonderful person.

5 Reasons I'M Thankful For My Roommate, As Told By "Parks And Rec"
Huffington Post

I seriously don't think I would have made it this far without you. There a million reasons why I'm thankful for you, but I didn't want to keep everyone here forever, so I narrowed it down to five that encompass my gratefulness (is that even a word? I should know this, we're going to be teachers).

1. The jam sessions.

All the way from freshman year, we would always be down to blast some SoMo, throwback Disney (yes, that was us blasting Nobody's Perfect at 1 a.m., judge us) and Justin Bieber (I know you're still judging). It was those late night "I'm not tired yet" nights where the music was too good and the memories were even better.

2. The late nights.

Remember that one time we all crammed in your tiny room pulled an all-nighter, because I had to write my English paper that was due the next morning? Good times. (Also the worst time in my life because I realized I cannot function on 3 hours of sleep.)

3. The words of encouragement.

Whether it's letting me know I'm gonna ace a test that I'm super nervous about, or just giving me the extra encouragement I need to go to class (ew), I know I can count on you to be that little voice in my head that gives me a push every now and then.

4. For all the laughter.

"Where?" "Is it velveeta Las Vegas?" and countless other time's we've just looked at each other and suddenly can't breathe from laughing, it always seems to come in right when I need it the most.

5. The love.

Even though we weren't roomies from the start, fate always knew we'd be the best of friends. I'm so thankful for all that you do for me, and all that you do for others. You are an amazing person and I am lucky to be able to yell across the room to annoy you.

BUT ALSO I'M FREAKING OUT BECAUSE WE ONLY HAVE ONE YEAR LEFT OF BEING ROOMIES AND WE CAN'T TALK ABOUT IT BECAUSE I'LL CRY.

Love,

your main bitch. :)

If I have learned one thing in my lifetime, it is that friends are a privilege. No one is required to give you their company and yet there is some sort of shared connection that keeps you together. And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.

Sorority Girls

College is a great place to meet people, especially through Greek life. If you look closely at sororities, you'll quickly see there are many different types of girls you will meet.

1. The Legacy.

Her sister was a member, her mom was a member, all of her aunts were members, and her grandma was a member. She has been waiting her whole life to wear these letters and cried hysterically on bid day. Although she can act entitled at times, you can bet she is one of the most enthusiastic sisters.

Every kid in college and/or high school dreams of summer the moment they walk through the door on the first day back in September. It becomes harder and harder to focus in classes and while doing assignments as the days get closer. The winter has been lagging, the days are short and dark, and no one is quite themselves due to lack of energy and sunlight. Let's face it: life is ten times better in the summertime.
