Holiday Shopping is Here! Are You Ready?

The Holidays are here! Whether that means you are filled with the joy and love that the holidays are supposed to bring or you are filled with the dread of spending all the money that you have saved up, you can't deny that there is something special in the air as the holidays approach. As Black Friday comes to a close, I figure, what better way to kick off the first traditional week of holiday shopping than with a list of feelings we all have when we are all shopping for the most wonderful time of the year?

1. When you find the perfect gift for someone

2. Trying to find parking at your local mall or shopping center


3. Finally finding said parking spot then having someone take it right out from under you

4. Walking into the mall and knowing that you might see what hell looks like

5. When a store is too crowded and you decide to nope the hell out of there

6. When you see a fight break out in a store

7. But then you start to take a side and secretly cheer them on

8. When you only have one more person on your list

9. You're finished! You are finally done with holiday shopping!

10. But then you realize you have to face the wrath of the parking lot again

So, whether you are absolutely pumped to find that perfect gift, or you are dreading the mere thought of being around the masses of people who are all there for the same reason, it's always important that we remember the real reason for the holidays, and that is to be with the people we love. When you go holiday shopping this season, be respectful to other people and keep in mind that when it is all said and done, you don't have to worry about doing it again for a whole year!

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.

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.
