The Thank You Letter My College Bff's Deserve

Because our friendship goes far beyond frat parties, $5 pitchers, and tailgates.

Personal

We never thought the time to go our separate ways would come, but it's finally here. Soon enough we will say goodbye to thirsty Thursdays, ice cream dates, and singing our hearts out to Before He Cheats by Carrie Underwood in the living room.

As much as I wish we could remain college students forever, I'm beyond excited to watch all of you live your best life and make all of your dreams come true.

Reminiscing on the past 4 years, I have many things I'm thankful for, but I'm most thankful to the people who helped shape me into the person I am today. So this letter is for you guys.

Thank you for being there for me all of the times I needed you, with no questions asked. For all of the times I was upset, feeling defeated, or just didn't really feel like being alone and you would drop whatever you were doing just to come over and hang out with me, thank you.

Thank you for always hyping me up. Countless times I've felt ugly, fat, not good enough, any many other things. But thanks to you and your constant reassurance, I started to see myself in a new light, learned to not be so mean, and to love myself the way I am.

Thank you for the endless laughs. Whether it be from one of the million, and I'm not exaggerating when I say million, memes you send me in a day, or from a funny memory we still can't let go of from 2 years ago, I'm always laughing.

Thank you for always having my back, giving me advice, and telling me the things I don't really want to hear, but need to hear. You have always had my best interest in mind and for that, I am forever grateful.

And finally, thank you for being one of the greatest parts of my college experience, and my future bridesmaids. There have been so many ups and downs over the past 4 years, but I wouldn't have wanted it any other way.

I can only hope that ten or maybe even twenty years from now, we will still be able to get together like we never parted. For now, I'm going to cherish all of the time we have left living in the same city, and try to remind you how much I love you and am thankful for you every chance I get.

5 Things To Do That Are Better Than Writing A Paper

Don't waste your time trying to write that paper when there are so many more interesting things you could be doing.

Writing a paper is never fun and is rarely rewarding. The writer's block, the page requirement, be specific, but don’t summarize, make sure you fixed any grammatical errors, did you even use spellcheck? and analyze, analyze, analyze.

Papers can be a major pain. They take up so much time and effort that by the end of the process you hate yourself and you hate the professor for making life so difficult. Questions of your existence start roaming in your mind. Am I even cut out for college if I can’t write a single paper? Am I even capable of taking care of myself if I lack the energy to open my laptop and start typing?

10 Reasons Why Sisters Are The Best

Who could be a better friend than your own sister?

I can barely remember back when I was the only child. Most would say it’s because it is extremely difficult to remember things as a toddler but I would say it's because I was bored until my sister came along. My mother always says how important the "sister bond" is and with every year that passes I realize how right she is. Instead of writing a novel about all of the wonderful things there are about having a sister I decided to list a few of them instead.

It is the time of our lives that we are beginning to enter the adult world and most of us, if not all of us, have no idea what we are doing. It's like starting a video game, but skipping the tutorial. We're all just running around aimlessly hoping we accidentally do something right that moves us along the right path. Now that graduation has just happened, or is right around the corner for some of us, it's time to start thinking about how we are going to take care of ourselves once we are on our own.

If you’re anything like me, you love a good cup of coffee. My coffee always comes from Starbucks; I refuse to drink it from anywhere else. Over the years, it’s become one of my biggest addictions. So, if you are aware that you’re a Starbucks addict as well, or maybe you need to check to see if you’re an addict, here are seven ways to tell.

College involves a whirlwind of emotions, whether it’s from the stress of an assignment (or twenty), or from fighting with your roommate. It can be overwhelming at times and it’s important to take a step a back and calmly think things over. Maybe gain some perspective. The following aren’t foolproof tips and may not apply to you, but I was able to find success with them (hope you do too!)
