I Hope You Treat Her Better

I'm not sure I ever got your best..

I Hope You Treat Her Better
Courtney Banks

You never treated me badly, but I'm not sure I ever got your best. However, I know that one day a girl will come along and really peak your interest. When that day comes, I hope you treat her better.

I hope you take her out on dates without her having to beg for them. It doesn't have to be an expensive dinner, you could get take out and watch movies in bed with her. I'm sure it would make her happy.

I hope you remind her of how special she is and how much she means to you. Never let her feel unappreciated. It's the little things that she will remember, take time for those.

I hope you take time to have fun with her. Be goofy and wrestle around. Make silly faces in the pictures you take with her. Make her smile, always make her smile.

I hope you spend time with her family. Get to know who she really is around the people she's most comfortable with. Listen to her stories about the family she's lost, and all of her childhood memories.

I hope she spends time with your family, too. I always loved them, and I wish I got more Sunday dinners with them. Your family made me feel so welcome, and I hope one day they do the same for her.

I hope you see her flaws. When you do I hope you help her with them and learn why she has them. Is she scared to trust you because she's been hurt before? Figure all of them out, help her like you tried to help me.

I hope you share your flaws with her. Let her know why you're so protective over her, and why you would rather keep your emotions in. She needs to know why you are the way you are.

I hope you talk to her and share your feelings with her. Here was a huge fault in our relationship. We never talked about our problems until we were falling apart. No one deserves to know that there are issues when it's too late to fix them.

I hope you don't run out on her when things get hard. I hope you give her the chance that I always wanted. I hope you always talk your problems out, and never go to bed angry.

Most of all I hope you love her. I hope you give her all the things you promised to me. I hope you show her off like she is your world. I hope you can't help but smile when you're around her. I hope she makes you the happiest man on earth. I hope she helps you fulfill your dreams. I hope she follows you when your life out grows this small town, even if it means moving to Tennessee. I hope you never doubt that you made the right decision in leaving me. I really hope you treat her better.

Dear High School Friend Group,

My sweet angels, where would I be without you guys. We all grew up together because we either met in middle school or high school and watched each other grow up and get "old." We got to go to prom together and then graduate together. Then watched each other as we continued our lives in college, joining sororities and meeting people who will impact our lives forever. It all has happened so fast.

Oh college, we can’t live with you, but we can’t live without you. It’s a love/hate relationship, really. College is an experience that no one can ever prepare you for, and maybe that’s a good thing. You never really expect any of the things that college encompasses until you are there. College is fun, but don’t have too much fun. C’s get degrees, but they don’t get you into graduate school.

Blair Waldorf

The "Gossip Girl" series may be over, but Blair Waldorf's iconic character lives in our hearts forever. Blair was the queen of the Upper East Side, and a character you either loved or hated. She taught us everything we needed to know about life, love and of course, how to score a Chuck Bass. So the next time you feel a bit lost and are in need of guidance, look no further than to the Queen B herself.

As I spend my Sunday avoiding my homework and other adult responsibilities, I realized that I've watched this series over and over about a million times. Sadly, there isn't a Blair quote I don't know, so I came up with a list of a few favorites. You know you love her...xoxo

College is an endless cycle of crappy, sleepless nights, tedious, boring lectures, and hours of never-ending piles of homework.

Summer: a time (usually) free from school work and a time to relax with your friends and family. Maybe you go on a vacation or maybe you work all summer, but the time off really does help. When you're in college you become super close with so many people it's hard to think that you won't see many of them for three months. But, then you get that text saying, "Hey, clear your schedule next weekend, I'm coming up" and you begin to flip out. Here are the emotions you go through as your best friend makes her trip to your house.
