It's The Most Wonderful Time Of The Year

It’s that time of the year again: spring! To me, spring is the happiest time of the year. Full of bliss, new beginnings and positive vibes, there’s no doubt this season is the season of change. I tend to believe everyone is their happiest during springtime, and I believe that is because of spring cleaning.

Spring cleaning doesn’t have to be the cleaning of your home or closet, it can be the cleaning of your life, too. Clean out the negative energy you may have in your life, and replace it with good energy that is sufficient enough to make you a happier individual.

Here are five things you can get rid of during your spring cleaning:

1. Negative people.

It’s time to cut out that one bad friend that you are holding onto for whatever reason. Negative people cause negative vibes! You don’t want that during the most beautiful season of the year. Its OK to let go.

2. Bad habits.

This one comes in many different forms for many different people. Now is your time to rid of those nasty habits and start better, healthier ones.

3. Self-hatred.

It’s time to stop being so hard on yourself! Start this spring off with a positive outlook on yourself. Take time to learn to love yourself and accept yourself for who you are. There is only one you.

4. Putting other peoples needs before yours.

Being selfish is OK! Sometimes you need to think of yourself. Living your life to please others will not get you anywhere and will not make you happy at all! Put your happiness and needs before anyone else’s.

5. Not living your life to the fullest.

We are blessed with one life and one life only. Do the best you can to make it the best life yet! This spring, don’t let consequences (unless they’re actually illegal/life ruining) stop you. Live your life in a way that allows you to look back and say, “Man, I’m glad I did that.” Try something new, make new friends and apply yourself in a way that you were too scared to do before.

Since spring is here, I’m going to be ridding away of my negative energies and replace them with positivity. Be happy, be thankful and be excited to embark on this fresh, clean, new journey that is spring!

If I have learned one thing in my lifetime, it is that friends are a privilege. No one is required to give you their company and yet there is some sort of shared connection that keeps you together. And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.

College is a great place to meet people, especially through Greek life. If you look closely at sororities, you'll quickly see there are many different types of girls you will meet.

1. The Legacy.

Her sister was a member, her mom was a member, all of her aunts were members, and her grandma was a member. She has been waiting her whole life to wear these letters and cried hysterically on bid day. Although she can act entitled at times, you can bet she is one of the most enthusiastic sisters.

Every kid in college and/or high school dreams of summer the moment they walk through the door on the first day back in September. It becomes harder and harder to focus in classes and while doing assignments as the days get closer. The winter has been lagging, the days are short and dark, and no one is quite themselves due to lack of energy and sunlight. Let's face it: life is ten times better in the summertime.
