Four Best Friends Are Better Than One

As told by 'New Girl.'

Four Best Friends Are Better Than One

Everyone has that one person they go to for everything, you tell all of your secrets to, always hang out with and would do anything for. As Meredith Grey would say, this is your person. Throughout life, your person will probably change a couple times. Mine did from high school to college. If you're lucky though, you won't have just one person. I have four people that, when you put them together, are my one person, and I wouldn't have it any other way.

They Join Your Crazy

When the five of you go out, you don't worry about not knowing anyone or acting the right way to fit in. You just let loose and be your chaotic selves, because with your little group of five you don't care what others think. You aren't afraid to be looked at or talked about because it isn't just you out there being a fool. It's a group being stupid, and it looks normal!

Dating

Dating can be a struggle. There is always one friend that is either single or having relationship problems. When one of your friends starts dating someone new, they have to be approved by the whole group. This may sound like a downside to having four best friends, but it isn't. It's four people that can look at the situation and get a feel for the potential relationship. Listen to your friends. They know you best.

Back Up

There are times in everyone's life that you are in a situation that you just need someone on your side. Whether it be with an ex, a professor is being unfair, your parents won't listen to what you have to say or even you just need to vent, a best friend is always there for you, so imagine having four other people in your corner to defend you and stand up for you when you sometimes can't do it by yourself!

Activities/Hobbies

Finding someone to join you in your weird activities is much easier when you have four people to choose from, and at least one of them will love the idea of going on some crazy adventure with you.

Finding your person is an important part of life, and sometimes if you're really lucky like me (or just needed more than one person to deal with your crazy), you get to have your only four friends in life, and you wouldn't change a thing!

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

The 5 Painfully True Stages Of Camping Out At The Library

For those long nights that turn into mornings when the struggle is real.

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.

Thanksgiving break is over and Christmas is just around the corner and that means, for most college students, one hellish thing — finals week. It's the one time of year in which the library becomes over populated and mental breakdowns are most frequent. There is no way to avoid it or a cure for the pain that it brings. All we can do is hunker down with our books, order some Dominos, and pray that it will all be over soon. Luckily, we are not alone in this suffering. To prove it, here are just a few of the many deranged thoughts that go through a college student's mind during finals week.

I know every college student has daily thoughts throughout their day. Whether you're walking on campus or attending class, we always have thoughts running a mile a minute through our heads. We may be wondering why we even showed up to class because we'd rather be sleeping, or when the professor announces that we have a test and you have an immediate panic attack.
