The Friend Group Family Tree

Each member of a friend group brings with them something different to add to the whole of the group dynamic. Whether you think you're the mom or the creepy uncle, everyone falls somewhere on the friend group family tree.

1. The Mom

If you can almost always be seen sporting a backpack full of snacks, an extra jacket, and anything else any of your friends may need, then you might be the mom of the friend group. Sure, it's a tough job keeping all these kids in line, but someone has to do it.

2. The Grandma

The Grandma of the friend group is the friend who can easily take a nap, no matter what time of day it is. The grandma may also not go out as much as everyone else because they prefer to stay in where they can wear their favorite pajamas and watch a good movie.

3. The Rebellious Teen

Rebellious teens, you know who you are. You have heard the words "Be careful!" from the mom of the group many times. The rebellious teen of the friend group is the one you really do not want mad at you. They have a short temper know how to hold a grudge like a pro.

4. The Goody-Two-Shoes

The goody-two-shoes of the family is the one rule follower who tries, although frequently without success, to keep everyone in line and out of trouble.


5. The Baby

The baby of the friend group is the one who everyone loves, even when they're being annoying, and who can get away with absolutely anything.

6. The Puppy

The puppy of the friend group has all the energy and excitement of a golden retriever mixed with the curiosity of a husky and all the cuteness of a black lab. It is impossible to be mad at them because they are just so gosh darn cute.


7. The Creepy Uncle

The creepy uncle of the friend group is the one who aggressively flirts with everyone and doesn't seem to quite understand personal space.

8. The Golden Boy

Star of the basketball team, super nice guy, and all-around heartthrob. The golden boy is impossible not to like and only makes you love him more with each grin from his perfect pearly whites.

9. The Cool Aunt

The cool aunt of the friend group has to be good at keeping secrets and keeping you out of trouble while also being the one who got you in that trouble in the first place. Your cool aunt is the one who tells you when you are looking extra good and is always ready to party.

10. Dad

The dad of the friend group is the boss, calls the shots and is always in charge. You always have your kid's backs and they love you for it.

"Family is like fudge, mostly sweet but with lots of of nuts."

I think the hardest thing about going away to college is figuring out how to become an adult. Leaving a household where your parents took care of literally everything (thanks, Mom!) and suddenly becoming your own boss is overwhelming. I feel like I'm doing a pretty good job of being a grown-up, but once in awhile I do something that really makes me feel like I'm #adulting. Twenty-somethings know what I'm talking about.

I went to a small high school, like 120-people-in-my-graduating-class small. It definitely had some good and some bad, and if you also went to a small high school, I’m sure you’ll relate to the things that I went through.

1. If something happens, everyone knows about it

Who hooked up with whom at the party? Yeah, heard about that an hour after it happened. You failed a test? Sorry, saw on Twitter last period. Facebook fight or, God forbid, real fight? It was on half the class’ Snapchat story half an hour ago. No matter what you do, someone will know about it.

Chandler Bing

I'm assuming that we've all heard of the hit 90's TV series, Friends, right? Who hasn't? Admittedly, I had pretty low expectations when I first started binge watching the show on Netflix, but I quickly became addicted.

Without a doubt, Chandler Bing is the most relatable character, and there isn't an episode where I don't find myself thinking, Yup, Iam definitely the Chandler of my friend group.

Working with the public can be a job, in and of itself. Some people are just plain rude for no reason. But regardless of how your day is going, always having to be in the best of moods, or at least act like it... right?

1. When a customer wants to return a product, hands you the receipt, where is printed "ALL SALES ARE FINAL" in all caps.

2. Just because you might be having a bad day, and you're in a crappy mood, doesn't make it okay for you to yell at me or be rude to me. I'm a person with feelings, just like you.

3. People refusing to be put on hold when a customer is standing right in front of you. Oh, how I wish I could just hang up on you!
