We all have "that friend."

The one who has always been there for you for as long as you've known them, whether it's been 10 years or six months. Even if you don't like the term, this is your best friend. This is the person who is your ride or die. The person who helps you no matter what happens and the person who well... is probably right.

While our best friends relay a bunch of wisdom upon us, they usually tell us the same things that maybe for once... we should listen to.

1. "He's not the one."

I know he's tall and cute, but if your best friend isn't a fan... maybe you should take a second look.

2. "That outfit looks great on you!"

Your bestie would never steer you wrong.

3. "Don't buy that."

4. "That sounds like a bad idea."

If your bestie isn't on board, then it might be a no-go.

5. "Stop being so dramatic!"

Maybe the fact that you lost your favorite Chapstick isn't THAT big of a deal.

6. "Don't call him!"

Because he doesn't deserve to hear your voice and you don't need to waste your time.

7. "I don't trust her."

If your best friend doesn't trust her, then she has a pretty dang good reason.

8. "You should look for a new job."

If you're complaining THAT much about it, then maybe it's time to get in a better environment.

9. "It's going to be okay."

Because it will.

10. "I will always be there for you."

5 Things To Do That Are Better Than Writing A Paper

Don't waste your time trying to write that paper when there are so many more interesting things you could be doing.

Writing a paper is never fun and is rarely rewarding. The writer's block, the page requirement, be specific, but don’t summarize, make sure you fixed any grammatical errors, did you even use spellcheck? and analyze, analyze, analyze.

Papers can be a major pain. They take up so much time and effort that by the end of the process you hate yourself and you hate the professor for making life so difficult. Questions of your existence start roaming in your mind. Am I even cut out for college if I can’t write a single paper? Am I even capable of taking care of myself if I lack the energy to open my laptop and start typing?

I can barely remember back when I was the only child. Most would say it’s because it is extremely difficult to remember things as a toddler but I would say it's because I was bored until my sister came along. My mother always says how important the "sister bond" is and with every year that passes I realize how right she is. Instead of writing a novel about all of the wonderful things there are about having a sister I decided to list a few of them instead.

It is the time of our lives that we are beginning to enter the adult world and most of us, if not all of us, have no idea what we are doing. It's like starting a video game, but skipping the tutorial. We're all just running around aimlessly hoping we accidentally do something right that moves us along the right path. Now that graduation has just happened, or is right around the corner for some of us, it's time to start thinking about how we are going to take care of ourselves once we are on our own.

College involves a whirlwind of emotions, whether it’s from the stress of an assignment (or twenty), or from fighting with your roommate. It can be overwhelming at times and it’s important to take a step a back and calmly think things over. Maybe gain some perspective.
