It's the little things that count.

School is one big bummer. Nobody wants to go. It truly does suck. But even though you may hate it more than anything, there are some good things to do.

1. Organization

For me, by the end of summer I am a hot mess who can't get out of bed. School fixes that for me. It builds me a routine that I can follow and makes me get out of the house.

2. New clothes

When was going shopping for back to school clothes not the best thing ever?

3. Wearing those new clothes and stunting on people

Walking down those hallways and knowing you look good in front of all the people you don't like.

4. Seeing your favorite teachers again for the first time

We all have a couple teachers that make school worth it for us.

5. Reconnecting with old friends

You may have some friends you didn't get to see over the summer that you miss. And school's the best excuse to socialize.

6. Playing sports

If you're an athletic person, school means the start of fall sports, the season you've been waiting for.

7. Clubs

There are clubs for almost anyone in school. Meeting other people with mutual interests is never a bad thing.

8. School crushes

They may be dumb and not worth your time, but it is a great way to kill time and procrastinate in school. Giving your attention to a cute someone makes school a little bit for fun.

9. Field trips

Need I say more?

10. Movie time

You may not be in elementary school anymore and it may be a boring educational movie, but at least movie time always equals nap time.

11. Learning

You know, the whole sole reason that you're actually there. Broadening your horizons and becoming a better person is always the best part.

Friendship. It's defined as the state of being attached to another person by feelings of affection or personal regard, but what really is friendship? Is it that occasional hallway talk with that one person who always manages to cheer you up? Is it that relationship you have with someone where they can be gone for a long period of time, but when they come back, it's like they never left? Is it spending every waking hour with someone, and knowing every detail about their life? Is it the relationship that's filled with fighting, but filled with even more resolution? I've learned that it's all of these things, and every friendship is different. It's a beautifully dysfunctional mess that should always be cherished and never be taken for granted.
