Dear Football Season,

Hooray! You're almost here! Soon my Saturday's will be filled with tailgating, cute pics at the stadium, and watching my favorite guys kick some serious butt. I've always loved college football. I knew when I was getting ready to go to college, I wanted to go to a school in the SEC. Let's face it, the SEC is by far the best conference.

As soon as the first game began my freshman year, I was hooked. I loved the thought of dressing in my game day gear, getting ready with all my sisters, and pregaming at various tailgates. I loved the thrill of the game, the roar of the crowd, the joy of screaming our fight song when we score and calling the hogs 7,000 times every game.

The first hog call before kick-off gives me the most excitement and chills. I love hearing the sound of several thousand students and loyal hog fans calling the hogs together. It never gets old, even after two years as a collegiate fan.

I love nothing more than being a fan of Arkansas football. Hearing so many people chant and cheer every week as we continue to grow and become better and better is such a wonderful experience. Even when we lose, we are happy to be Hog fans. We love our boys, no matter if we win or lose.

Football season, you are some of the best weekends of my entire life. I have so many great memories from football game's past. Rushing the field after beating LSU, feeling utter defeat after losing to A&M at Cowboy's Stadium, even letting my parents experience the student section during Parent's Weekend. It is a very exciting time, and something to always look forward to. I get sad when you end and excited when it gets closer and closer to your arrival once again.

So, thank you. Thank you for the best Saturday's a girl could ask for, the most fun memories, and the excitement you bring to my life. I can't wait for you to come back into my life in just a few short weeks.

Go Hogs.

I think the hardest thing about going away to college is figuring out how to become an adult. Leaving a household where your parents took care of literally everything (thanks, Mom!) and suddenly becoming your own boss is overwhelming. I feel like I'm doing a pretty good job of being a grown-up, but once in awhile I do something that really makes me feel like I'm #adulting. Twenty-somethings know what I'm talking about.

I went to a small high school, like 120-people-in-my-graduating-class small. It definitely had some good and some bad, and if you also went to a small high school, I’m sure you’ll relate to the things that I went through.

1. If something happens, everyone knows about it

Who hooked up with whom at the party? Yeah, heard about that an hour after it happened. You failed a test? Sorry, saw on Twitter last period. Facebook fight or, God forbid, real fight? It was on half the class’ Snapchat story half an hour ago. No matter what you do, someone will know about it.

Chandler Bing

I'm assuming that we've all heard of the hit 90's TV series, Friends, right? Who hasn't? Admittedly, I had pretty low expectations when I first started binge watching the show on Netflix, but I quickly became addicted.

Without a doubt, Chandler Bing is the most relatable character, and there isn't an episode where I don't find myself thinking, Yup, Iam definitely the Chandler of my friend group.

Working with the public can be a job, in and of itself. Some people are just plain rude for no reason. But regardless of how your day is going, always having to be in the best of moods, or at least act like it... right?

1. When a customer wants to return a product, hands you the receipt, where is printed "ALL SALES ARE FINAL" in all caps.

2. Just because you might be having a bad day, and you're in a crappy mood, doesn't make it okay for you to yell at me or be rude to me. I'm a person with feelings, just like you.

3. People refusing to be put on hold when a customer is standing right in front of you. Oh, how I wish I could just hang up on you!
