I’m no scientist, but I’m pretty sure water can be considered medicine. There are tons of benefits of drinking water -- but let’s get real -- how many glasses do you drink a day? Hopefully when you read about how amazing your body will feel after being hydrated properly, you will want to fill up a glass right after you read this. Here are 13 awesome ways water makes you healthier. Stay hydrated!

1. Clears acne

Water flushes out the toxins from your skin and gives you a glow; I’ll take it.

2. Relieves bloating

Bloating happens, but drinking water will help to relieve it.

3. Aids in digestion

You digest food better when you have a glass of water with your meals.

4. Getting over a cold

If you’re sick, the absolute best thing to do is stay hydrated.

5. Are you really hungry?

Sometimes our bodies make us think we are hungry when our brain is really trying to tell us we need water.

6. Have a better workout

When you are in the gym working up a sweat, water is the greatest for replacing what you sweat out.

7. Helps sore muscles

Even after exercising, keep drinking water to prevent your muscles from tightening up and feeling sore.

8. Stops bad breath

A major reason why bad breath is a thing is because our mouths are dry. Drink up!

9. Avoid headaches

Dehydration plays a big role in why you get those pounding headaches.

10. Boosts your energy

Instead of grabbing a coffee when you need a pick-me-up, just drink some water and you should feel energized.

11. Heals dry skin

When lotion isn’t cutting it for your dry skin, water will rehydrate your skin.

12. Helps after drinking

After a long night, your body needs water to soothe your hangover and help those kidneys.

13. Your insides will thank you.

Our bodies are made of about 60% water; we thrive when we’re hydrated.

Do as I say, not as I do.

Your eyes widen in horror as you stare at your phone. Beads of sweat begin to saturate your palm as your fingers tremble in fear. The illuminated screen reads, "Missed Call: Mom."

Growing up with strict parents, you learn that a few things go unsaid. Manners are everything. Never talk back. Do as you're told without question. Most importantly, you develop a system and catch on to these quirks that strict parents have so that you can play their game and do what you want.

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!
