I am very thankful for all my friends. I love each and every one of them. I feel very grateful that I have such great friendships both at home and at school and I don't know how I got so lucky to have so many loving people in my life. Right now, I am 247 miles from one of my best friends and I am missing her like crazy. She deserves to know how grateful I am and how proud I am of her.

Dear Em,

I have no idea what I would do without you. Right now, we are only four hours apart, but the separation anxiety is so real. I want to tell you how proud I am of you for everything you've accomplished this past year. I watched you kick Anatomy class' butt, you took an important leadership role in our sorority, you are navigating your way through your faith and beliefs, you went abroad and explored insanely beautiful parts of Europe that held important, sentimental value, and you have remained the most supportive, loving, and loyal best friends I could ever ask for.

I still find it insane that we not only share the same name, but nearly all the same thoughts. We always say we each make up half of one whole brain and although we joke about it, I'm starting to think we do actually share a brain. I can always count on you to be there for me and somehow you always give the right advice and lead me in the best direction.Our friendship is one of the major reasons I can tolerate being 800 miles from home- I always have a sister right by my side. I love you to pieces.

Always remember: she got off the plane.

Love, Em

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.

1. The Legacy.

Her sister was a member, her mom was a member, all of her aunts were members, and her grandma was a member. She has been waiting her whole life to wear these letters and cried hysterically on bid day. Although she can act entitled at times, you can bet she is one of the most enthusiastic sisters.

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.
