The Little Things

This is what a real friendship consists of.

The Little Things
We Heart It

When I was younger, I use to think friendship was sleepovers and play dates. That it was whoever's house was hosting the best birthday parties or the girl who let you borrow her new Justin Bieber CD. That friendship was a phase or a connivence. Now I know it is so much more beyond letting someone borrow your crayons in class or saving them a spot in line at lunch time.

Friendship is three in the morning talks about what happened the day before and why the hell you're still awake.

Friendship is three in the afternoon laughing so hard you're on the floor at a corny joke for the third time that day.

Friendship is being able to talk nonsense and have that nonsense be completely respected.

Friendship is when your car is in the shop and they offer to drive you around.

Friendship is when you've had your heart broken and they let you sleep at their place until you feel whole again.

Friendship is spitting that large pizza you both don't need.

Friendship is when you look at each other and know exactly what each other are thinking.

Friendship is knowing that your closet is now open publicly to your friends and vice versa.

Friendship is running boring errands together so you don't have to do them alone.

Friendship is them knowing that you don't like pickles on your sandwich.

Friendship is rooting you on when you can't even root for yourself.

Friendship is sitting there eating in silence because you would rather eat than talk (and they would too).

Friendship is holding them accountable for their mistakes and helping them learn from the past.

Friendship is a shoulder to cry on when a Monday gets the best of you.

Friendship is being your date to any event or function you get a plus one to.

Friendship is trusting whole-heartedly that the other person has your best interest at heart.

Friendship is binge watching shows during rainy days.

Friendship is a call over a break to let them know every detail of their life you have missed.

Friendship has no limit.

Friendship has no timeline.

Friendship does not know distance.

Friendship is convincing creepy guys that you are in a relationship with each other to get them to leave you alone.

Friendship is never judging you from a decision you realize wasn't the best idea.

Friendship is the first person you call to tell good news.

Friendship is the first person you call to tell bad news.

Friendship is calling each other's parents "mom and dad".

Friendship is love in the strangest ways when all else is lost.

"Friendship isn't a big thing. It's a million little things." -- Unknown

We Heart It

Over the past decade, television has undergone a very crucial transition: the incorporation of female lead characters. Since it's a known fact that girls actually do run the world (Beyonce said so herself), it's time for the leading ladies of the small screen to get some credit. Without these characters, women would still be sitting in the background of our favorite shows. These women are not only trailblazers for female empowerment, but role models for women worldwide. With that, here are 15 of the smartest, sassiest ladies gracing our screens that remind us that women do, indeed, rule:

If you are like me, you have an interesting personality. Basically, you love to be sassy and snarky, gossip, and act like a total bitch (not really), but deep down, you are actually a very genuinely nice person. The idea of actually hurting someone truly makes you feel bad, and you probably have never actually hurt someone’s feelings because your kindness always shines through, even if you do not want it to. Not sure exactly what I would call this type of personality, but if you identify with it, here are some feelings you can undoubtedly relate to.
