This is not a Valentine’s Day love poem. But riddle me this, are real love and true love one in the same? How do you know the difference between the two? Can you even tell the difference between the two? No? Well, allow me to explain.

Real love with a capital "L" is committing and trustworthy, but sometimes if you are not careful it will let you down. Real love means the loving of mind, body, and soul; if you only love the body and not the mind or soul then you should rethink things.

True love is committing and trusting and it will never let you down. True love will love you even when real love or what you thought to be real love, walks away. True love will never leave nor forsake you; if you haven’t guessed it by now I am talking about God. God is true love, and true love always conquers all. To all the couples and singles: this is not a Valentine’s Day poem, but stay strong and have a good one. Know that true love is there when real love deceives you.

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.
