Thank you.

Thank you for sticking with me even when I put you through hell.Thank you for always telling my heart what it needs when my mind isn't sure. And thank you for being absolutely perfect at any size.

And I'm sorry.

I am sorry for saying such horrible things about you that I would never even say about my worst enemy. I'm sorry for depriving you of what you needed. I'm sorry for putting you through so much.

You have carried me through this life without faltering or failing. You have grown strong and shown me that your size doesn't matter as long as you feel good mentally and physically.

You have carried me through the highest highs and the lowest lows. You have endured everything life has thrown at you. You have loved me and made me more confident than I could have ever imagined.

No matter where I am in life, I know you will be there, like you always have, pushing me to move forward and continue to progress.

I know some days I hate you for no reason, but I promise to start putting you first. I promise to love you even on my worst days. And I promise to see you as you are, not through the distorted lens of my mind.

Thank you for being patient on this journey of self love. Thank you for forgiving my evil thoughts. Thank you for continuing to push through life with me. Thank you for doing your part in making me who I am and who I have always needed to be.

You have taken me up mountains. Slowly but surely, we got there together. And I will continue to nourish and support you as we continue this life together. I can't wait to see what incredible things we can accomplish.

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.

College is a great place to meet people, especially through Greek life. If you look closely at sororities, you'll quickly see there are many different types of girls you will meet.

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.
