From The Girl Lucky Enough To Have A Guy Best Friend
Ashley Denton

That's right, the guys I am lucky enough to call my best friends, this one is for you. Firstly I'd like to say Thank you. Thank you for always being there for me without even being asked… You always have a way of just knowing when something is not right. Thank you for always being my shoulder to cry on, they say that guys are supposed to be big, rough, tough and mighty but honestly no... that's the biggest and untrue stereotype. You are nothing of the sorts and I count my blessings every day for that.

You guys have taught me so much, from how to go into complete beast mode while playing one on one to teaching me the basics of how to play video games, and you never seem to give up on me even though you know I am the absolute worst at it! I love the fact that we can just chill together and you're not afraid to let me be just one of the guys with you, we can just chill and everything is cool but you also know how to treat me like a proper lady, and one of my favorite parts is that you will never turn down a spur of the moment shopping trip! I have learned so much from you dude, you are the one I can go to for guy advice and you will tell me straight up how it is. You're not afraid to call me out on my sh** and tell me when I am out of line or just going crazy. You know how to make me laugh harder than anyone else can and I know I can always count on you to cheer me up when I am down.

You're not big brother but you know how to act like it sometimes… I feel bad for the next guy who tries to play me because I know he's going to have to deal with you and your not afraid to put him in his place if he steps out of line. I'm jealous of the girl you end up with, she is going to be one lucky girl but she will be blessed with a true gentleman. She better treat you right though because just like you I'm not afraid to put her in her place. I have high standards and expectations for the girl you end up with because she is going to end up being with an amazing, kind-hearted and funny guy.

You may or may not have been here since day one but that's ok because friendship isn't about whos been there the longest it about whos never left your side, and whose loyalty you have never had to question and I can say proudly and happily say that I have never had to question yours, you have always been there for me and I honestly can't thank you enough for that. You have been one of the only constant and consistent people that I know I can always rely on.

Thanks, dude… for everything...

5 Things To Do That Are Better Than Writing A Paper

Don't waste your time trying to write that paper when there are so many more interesting things you could be doing.

Writing a paper is never fun and is rarely rewarding. The writer's block, the page requirement, be specific, but don’t summarize, make sure you fixed any grammatical errors, did you even use spellcheck? and analyze, analyze, analyze.

Papers can be a major pain. They take up so much time and effort that by the end of the process you hate yourself and you hate the professor for making life so difficult. Questions of your existence start roaming in your mind. Am I even cut out for college if I can’t write a single paper? Am I even capable of taking care of myself if I lack the energy to open my laptop and start typing?

sisters
Taylor Hooper

I can barely remember back when I was the only child. Most would say it’s because it is extremely difficult to remember things as a toddler but I would say it's because I was bored until my sister came along. My mother always says how important the "sister bond" is and with every year that passes I realize how right she is. Instead of writing a novel about all of the wonderful things there are about having a sister I decided to list a few of them instead.

It is the time of our lives that we are beginning to enter the adult world and most of us, if not all of us, have no idea what we are doing. It's like starting a video game, but skipping the tutorial. We're all just running around aimlessly hoping we accidentally do something right that moves us along the right path. Now that graduation has just happened, or is right around the corner for some of us, it's time to start thinking about how we are going to take care of ourselves once we are on our own.

If you’re anything like me, you love a good cup of coffee. My coffee always comes from Starbucks; I refuse to drink it from anywhere else. Over the years, it’s become one of my biggest addictions. So, if you are aware that you’re a Starbucks addict as well, or maybe you need to check to see if you’re an addict, here are seven ways to tell.

It can be overwhelming at times and it’s important to take a step a back and calmly think things over. Maybe gain some perspective.
