6 Reasons Why I Never Got My Summer Body

As soon as spring hit this year, every other article in magazines and online were dedicated to explaining how to get the perfect summer body. I, like many other people, quickly hopped on this fad and began finding the best diet and exercise plan.

Well the summer is coming to an end, and I have realized that I never really did get that perfect summer body, and you know what? I'm OK with that fact, and I have created a list that explains why, incomparably.

1. Your girl loves carbs.

After all, pasta is a girl's best friend.

2. Really, I love all food.

Go ahead and add any food over 400 calories with no nutritional value to the list of a girl's best friends.

3.Those closest to me enable my bad habit.

Whether it be my significant other assisting me in getting ice cream at three in the morning or my best friends insisting on eating at places with the best junk food, can you blame me for giving up healthy food?

4. Naps: not just for the old.

Naps are sent from heaven and should never be overlooked.

5. I am too lazy to be considered lazy at this point.

I'm aiming at beating the record for most days without leaving bed, and I'm pretty close.

6. Exercise and I are frienemies.

I like exercising as much as the next person (not at all).

You can still look amazing in your bikini with a little pooch; you can still rock that crop top with some love handles. Don't let anyone determine whether you have the ideal standard or when your allowed to feel great in your body. Rock what your momma gave you, and get that extra scoop of ice cream!

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.

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.
