Ladies, College Is About Meeting Your Bridesmaids, Not The Groom
Maddie Stallings

This past week, I saw a tweet that read “college is about meeting the bridesmaids, not the groom.”

It hit me because lately, I have just been in this mood of wanting a boyfriend, and trying to search for “the one.”

That tweet kind of gave me a wake-up call, like hey, I am young, I am free, and I should just be having a good time with my girls.

I just finished my freshman year of college. I have made friends and built strong friendships since graduating high school. Some of the girls I am friends with, I could imagine being my bridesmaids. Now, the guys in my life, yikes, definitely no grooms so far.

But that's okay, I am okay with focusing on my girlfriends and just having a good time.

It is prime time in my life, time to be carefree, have girls nights, and make lifelong friends.

Not only have I met some of my best friends in college, but I still have friends from elementary and high school.

I have started to learn how to cherish and depend on my girls because well FRICK BOYS!

There is really no rush to meet your groom in college, there is no need. Chill out and spend time with your girls, because you want your best friends standing by your side when you do finally meet and are marrying your groom.

Your girls should always come first and make sure those friendships are strong. Boys will come and go, especially in college.

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.
