For The Best Friend Who's In It For The Long Run

This is as cheesy as the title comes off to be.

Dear Best Friend,

Thank you for always being there. I have lost many best friends in the past simply because the universe had you for me. You and everyone reading this knows who you are. Other best friends made me laugh, but you were the only one that stayed and dealt with my bullshit for the long run.

You didn't move away or find new friends. Even when we did move away to different colleges and found new friends, our connection never broke. We'd always come back to each other and fall right back where we left off. I'd drop you off at your house, and we'd end up talking and catching each other up on our lives. My mom would call me worried because she didn't know where I was. Thank you for being supportive of my dreams. I don't get to see you very often, and I wish our schedules allowed us to be together more, but whenever we hang out, it never changes between us.

You were there when my first dog, Wylie, died, even though he growled at you when he stepped on your art project. You were there when I called you crying on the phone cause of boy troubles.

You were there when I blew up a bottle of suicide sauce while eating at Bajas.

You laugh at me and with me, and I couldn't have asked for a better friend than you. I love everyone in my life, and all of the people that I have met and come across are amazing and loving souls, but you are one of the big blessings in my life.

You were the first to stay and make a mark in my life.

Thanks, Analise, I love you, bitch.

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?

10 Reasons Why Sisters Are The Best

Who could be a better friend than your own sister?

sisters

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.

If you’re anything like me, you love a good cup of coffee. My coffee always comes from Starbucks; I refuse to drink it from anywhere else. Over the years, it’s become one of my biggest addictions. So, if you are aware that you’re a Starbucks addict as well, or maybe you need to check to see if you’re an addict, here are seven ways to tell.

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. The following aren’t foolproof tips and may not apply to you, but I was able to find success with them (hope you do too!)
