UGH

I can't help but think that I will never ever be able to find the one for me. I'm utterly convinced that I will never find a significant other and will die alone. And, I'm not okay with it as much as I was before. I just think that seeing everyone around me be so happy and content with life and here's me hating life and everything about it.

I just wish I could just look at myself in the mirror and accept myself for who I am and not sit there and resent myself. Like I always have been this way and I thought that maybe college would change me and I would start to love myself for me but instead it just got worse.

I thought that maybe joining a sorority would make me feel better because I would be surrounded by girls who love me a lot and I love them but instead being in a sorority has made it worse. My anxiety and depression seem to have gotten worse because of how much I've started to hate myself, my looks, my body, my personality? I just wish I had the balls to talk to a boy, I can never talk to a boy so how am I supposed to start a relationship with a boy? I just wish that I had the ability to be an attractive human being and be able to tempt a boy enough to make him come up to me and start talking to me. Or if I go up to them, they actually accept me for me and not back away, running and screaming.

The lack of confidence that I have stops me from loving myself and on top of that, I'm a coconut. The color of my skin is brown except on the inside, I'm white. I act like the people I surround myself in. I mean heck, I'm in a sorority. How does that happen? I never thought that I would ever be able to fit in a place like that. I mean in the end all you wanna do is to be able to get along with them, but I tend to get sorta jealous of them. All I want is to be like them, especially since all the boys come up to them and not me.

My friend told me that I need to make sure that I make the first move and not them because they like the girls who make the first move. I really hope that's the truth, because I'm about to do that tonight with my social. I wish I had more guts to actually talk to guys, all I need is confidence and not a drink.

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.

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. The winter has been lagging, the days are short and dark, and no one is quite themselves due to lack of energy and sunlight. Let's face it: life is ten times better in the summertime.
