To The Roomie Who Has Turned Into A Lifelong Friend

Here's to you

Not everyone can say their roommate is their best friend, so I guess I'm one of the lucky ones.

Thank you for, quite literally, always being there.

From the minute we wake up to the minute we go to bed, I'm pretty sure we're always in contact. If we're not wandering around campus with each other, eating together, talking about the Real Housewives, or sitting in our living room ranting about someone or something, I'd bet my life we're texting or Snapchatting or tagging each other in memes on Facebook.

Thank you for being my personal therapist.

Whether I'm stressed about school, boys, what to wear, or even what to get for dinner, I know I can always turn to you (and I always do) for 10/10 advice at any time of the day. It may not be what I want to hear, but it's always what I need to hear.

Thank you for knowing me inside and out.

I know I get easily annoyed, but so do you, and that's why we're friends. You always know what I'm thinking and you always know how to snap me out of my bad mood, even though my favorite times are when we sit in our apartment and dwell in our bad moods together.

We laugh in situations we probably shouldn't and we say what's on our minds when we probably shouldn't, but we never regret it because at least we know we have each other.

I don't know how I'm going to survive an entire semester when you leave me to go abroad, but somehow I know we'll keep each other updated on all the crazy things going on in our lives and I'll count down the days until you come back to school and we're roommates once again.

I saw a picture on VSCO yesterday and it said, "college is about finding your bridesmaids, not your groom."

I'm glad I found you.

5 Things To Do That Are Better Than Writing A Paper

Don't waste your time trying to write that paper when there are so many more interesting things you could be doing.

Writing a paper is never fun and is rarely rewarding. The writer's block, the page requirement, be specific, but don’t summarize, make sure you fixed any grammatical errors, did you even use spellcheck? and analyze, analyze, analyze.

Papers can be a major pain. They take up so much time and effort that by the end of the process you hate yourself and you hate the professor for making life so difficult. Questions of your existence start roaming in your mind. Am I even cut out for college if I can’t write a single paper? Am I even capable of taking care of myself if I lack the energy to open my laptop and start typing?

10 Reasons Why Sisters Are The Best

Who could be a better friend than your own sister?

sisters

I can barely remember back when I was the only child. Most would say it’s because it is extremely difficult to remember things as a toddler but I would say it's because I was bored until my sister came along. My mother always says how important the "sister bond" is and with every year that passes I realize how right she is. Instead of writing a novel about all of the wonderful things there are about having a sister I decided to list a few of them instead.

It is the time of our lives that we are beginning to enter the adult world and most of us, if not all of us, have no idea what we are doing. It's like starting a video game, but skipping the tutorial. We're all just running around aimlessly hoping we accidentally do something right that moves us along the right path. Now that graduation has just happened, or is right around the corner for some of us, it's time to start thinking about how we are going to take care of ourselves once we are on our own.

If you’re anything like me, you love a good cup of coffee. My coffee always comes from Starbucks; I refuse to drink it from anywhere else. Over the years, it’s become one of my biggest addictions. So, if you are aware that you’re a Starbucks addict as well, or maybe you need to check to see if you’re an addict, here are seven ways to tell.

College involves a whirlwind of emotions, whether it’s from the stress of an assignment (or twenty), or from fighting with your roommate. It can be overwhelming at times and it’s important to take a step a back and calmly think things over. Maybe gain some perspective. The following aren’t foolproof tips and may not apply to you, but I was able to find success with them (hope you do too!)
