Treat your girlfriends like Leslie Knope treats Ann Perkins. For those of you out there who are blissfully unaware of the genius that is "Parks and Recreation," Amy Poehler as Leslie Knope and Rashida Jones as Ann Perkins have truly nailed girl code. I decided to take some notes on their girlfriendship and apply them to college life. Thus, these 20 promises were born.
1. I promise to let you vent to me about hating another girl even if I've never met her.
2. I promise to pick you up at 7 a.m. from a frat to spare you from your stride of pride in last night's heels.
3. I promise to binge eat with you at 2 a.m. on a Saturday night because who wants to feel guilty alone?
4. I promise to tell you if your outfit isn't as hot as you think it is.
5. I promise to hold back your hair whenever necessary.
6. I promise to try my best with helping you figure out a good Instagram caption.
7. I promise to listen to you go on and on about some guy even if I swear I've heard it all a million times before.
8. I promise to make sure you know how amazing you are as often as I can.
9. I promise to cuddle with you when you need it and stay far away when you don't.
10. I promise to go on endless adventures and try exciting new things with you when you need someone to try them with.
11. I promise to go out if you really want me to, even if I would rather sleep instead.
12. I promise to never lie to you. I may keep things from you to spare your feelings but if confronted, I will never lie.
13. I promise to admit when you're right and I'm wrong (as rare as that may be) even if it's a huge blow to my ego.
14. I promise to try to put you in a better mood when I know that you're upset.
15. I promise to force you to go to the gym with me even if I have to drag you.
16. I promise to watch funny videos with you for hours on end when we are bored.
17. I promise to send you my ugliest SnapChats and to always screenshot yours in return.
18. I promise to never let you forget your embarrassing moments (only when the proper amount of recovery time has passed of course).
19. I promise to always stand up for you when you aren't around.
20. I promise to still like you even though I know everything about you, and to love you even when I hate you.
