Every love story is beautiful, but ours is my favorite.

Lucky I'm In Love With My Best Friend
Zoey Zogby

Every relationship is full of something different that makes it absolutely amazing. But, some aspects make things a little more special than everything else. When you fall in love with your best friend, there are a few wonderful things that happen that never fail to make every single moment-every single memory-absolutely special. It's nothing huge, but it's the little things that always make everything all the better.

1. Every Moment is a Memory

Whether it's taking corny pictures together on a college campus or strolling around a mall window shopping hand in hand, falling in love with your best friends means that every single thing that you do together is a memory that's going to last a lifetime. They're the moments that make everything even better, because you're spending them with the love of your life, and your best friend.

2. They Want to Experience Everything You Love

If you love Broadway and the city that never sleeps, they'll wonder around New York City enjoying the way your eyes form little hearts every single time you pass another tourist trap. They'll sit there taking selfies with their programs in the air and take dramatic pictures of you with your hands in the air underneath the theater's marquee. And you'll sit there and learn everything that they like to do, whether it's sitting through long lectures about sports or learning to play an instrument they play or trying your hardest to beat them at video games.

3. You Can Tease Them Relentlessly

It's so much easier to be comfortable around a person that you're dating when you have a friendship with them. Especially when that friendship predates the relationship. It makes it impossible to keep embarrassing stories from them, because they know everything humiliating that you've ever done or experienced. But, you know all of those things about them, and you both mock one another about all of those things every chance that you get.

4. The Fights Are Cheesy and Dramatic

They've over stupid little things and they don't mean much of anything, but they're always some stupidly drawn out thing that usually involves you hitting him playfully on the arm and him pretending that it hurts because he knows that you'll just get more ignored if he acts like you never touched him.

5. They'll Take a Million Stupid Selfies With You

They already know that you like to take daily selfies using every single snapchat filter known to man, so they're fine with volunteering to stand besides you whenever you need a second person for the filter. And they're fine with having you take fifty of the same picture so that you can pick which one is best, even though they don't see a difference between shots.

6. They Brag About Every Little Thing You Do

They think that you're perfect, even when you're sitting on the couch in baggy sweatpants with your hair up and no makeup on, reading a book with a cup of coffee in front of you. Whether it's an A on a paper or getting a new part time job or an internship, they're the first person to brag about how amazing their girlfriend is, because they don't care if other people think they're bragging. They've known how amazing you were for a while, so they're fine with letting everybody else in on the secret.

7. They're Never Afraid to Be Goofy With You

You're best friends and that means that you're going to be just as free spirited with them as you would be during girl's night. In fact, you're even more comfortable around them because there's no reason to get all dolled up and go out. Instead, you can sit in pajamas and watch Netflix, yelling at the TV. Or you can dance around the kitchen while you're cooking at the strangest time of day. No matter what, you know that you can be totally ridiculous.

Think of everything that you've heard about college... and completely forget it.

College is a crazy, beautiful, amazing whirlwind. It is highly popularized in television and movies, but not necessarily in the most accurate way. Yes, there's frats, dingy dorms, raging house parties—but there's also a lot that people fail to mention.

1. If you thought that you knew how to study, you're wrong.

All of your classes aren't taught every day, so professors aren't on your case constantly about reading and memorizing material. Once you get back that "questionable" first exam grade, you'll kick it into high gear and figure out what works for you

Girl With Bleached Hair
Tumblr

I've been a bleach blonde for over a year now, and let me tell you, it is a lifestyle. More hair appointments, longer showers, and special shampoo. But it is totally worth it!

1. Mentally preparing yourself to convince your hair dresser that white is the way to go.

2. Or the anxiety of what could go wrong by bleaching your hair at home.

3. You could either become a ginger

4. Or a pixie

5. The face you make in the mirror when you take off your towel to unveil the perfect white strands.

6. Taking a million selfies the day you bleached it, because you know your roots will be back in literally 2 days.

7. Having to get bangs or a big chop because your hair is so damaged.

8. Having orange highlights in between touch-ups.

9. Going out for a drink afterwards to debut your updated look.

Despite the struggles, you love your platinum blonde hair! You make sure Instagram knows it, too. You don't need a filter, because the color is flawless by itself!

Finals: just thinking about them gives you anxiety. Only two weeks separate you from summer, but they're the longest of the semester. There's a familiarity to this season, now that you have had so many testing cycles under your belt. But that doesn't quell the ever present stress to pass your finals and your classes. Even better, as a package deal during these wonderful weeks, you get to wake up early to study and you get to take exams that can begin anytime from 7 A.M. to 7 P.M. Now that we have established that this week is not fun, here are some super relatable moments that punctuate finals week.

I've been at this college thing for almost three and a half years, and while I thought that high school was truly the lowest point of my existence, I'm beginning to realize that it was a walk in the park. Like, I miss the days when the biggest white lie I told my parents was my made up excuse about being late for fourth period. These days, the white lies are a tad more complex, and as ashamed as I am to admit it, I've definitely told a few of these.
