We may not have been friends very long yet, but I know that this friendship is one I hope to have for many years.

First of all, I just want to thank you.

Thank you for the nights when you let me come back to rant.

I know that when I’ve had a long day or need someone to lean on that you’re there. You listen to me whine about pointless things that don’t even really impact me. You even listen when I’m going on useless tangents about the latest drama, or the fact that I think I want to change my life plan for the 50^th time that day alone.

Thank you for the nights when I just want to go get food.

It’s crazy just how much you support late night snacks with me. You run to the café or just heat up some mac ‘n cheese with me. Thank you for all of the nights when I want a late night shake and you go with me. Whether it is while we’re sitting in our rooms or after a practice. You do it, and that’s what matters.

Thank you for making the ordinary things, extraordinary.

Thank you for making things like going to the store or going to band practice so much fun! You know how to make something like eating dinner into something more like a comedy show. Thank you for making me laugh even when we’re just sitting in the lounge doing work or at least trying to do work. Donating blood was never such a fun thing until I met all of you.

Thank you for relaxing with me.

Thank you for the nights when you watch movies with me to relax. I think this is the one I appreciate most. You realize when we all just need a break to watch Newsies, High School Musical, Grease, or Beauty and the Beast.Those relaxing nights just laughing and singing are what I’ll remember most from college, not the tests. Thank you for the memories we’ve shared and those yet to come.

Thank you for giving me that extra push I need.

Although I may never want to agree to this one, I always will appreciate it. Even when I want to just hangout, you always understand when I need to study more. Without your support, my success wouldn’t be possible. A group of people to lean on and care about is absolutely necessary for success. You all are that to me.

Thank you for being so kind and accepting me.

You accepting me even with my bit of a weird side is much appreciated. When you compliment me and send nice messages, it’s something that really helps me get through a busy day. Thank you for encouraging me on the worst of my days. It truly means a lot.

Lastly, Thank You for Being YOU!

We may not have been friends very long yet, but I know that this friendship is one I hope to have for many years.

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.
