C'mon girl, GLOW Up

From fetus to fierce hunnies, we all were awkward puberty girls but then we figured out that makeup was a thing.

Puberty. Man, that hit most of us like a train! We had pimples for the first time, braces, weird t-shirt fabric training bras that came in a pack from target and everything else under the sun that could be deemed as embarrassing.

Growing up now is a WHOLE DIFFERENT STORY. We live in a world with one beauty guru after another telling us how to “beat” or our faces and wing our eyeliner to look like the heaven sent angels we are.

When my friends and I were learning about makeup, it was the blind leading the blind. There was almost a silent competition to see who could get away with the most makeup without their mom telling them to take it off.

Teenage girls strut around shielded by their contour and kylie lip kits invincible to the ugly/awkward stick that inevitably hit all of us.

With the countless Instagram models and tumblr goals posted on social media, growing up today is nothing like it was 10 years ago. Girls growing up have completely skipped the ugly stage most of us suffered through.

Like every bad storm, the sun always comes back and shine down upon us. In our case we glowed up and stopped being awkward and figured out how to make ourselves more presentable.

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.

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.
