10 Summer Situations Almost All Girls Can Relate To

The joyous hot summer weather brings about a specific set of challenges that every girl must over come. Here's a few of mine.

1. The Reverse Mustache

Have you ever put fake tan, or even bronzer, all over your body and face on a hot day in an attempt to get that summer goddess glow? Well if you have, you'll know come night time there will be a small white strip on your upper lip where the dark pigment has sweated off throughout the day, leaving the dreaded reverse mustache.

2. Underarms Puddles

This one again has to do with sweating (eww). The perfect mix of cotton fabric and the summer heat leaves your shirt with a nice dark ring of moisture around your underarms. #TeamNoSleeveSummer

3. Uneven Tans

Am I the only person who forgets to flip when they're at the beach tanning? It just never occurs to me, so I always end up with one side of my body being four shades darker than the other.

4. Pedicure Problems

It might just be because I'm constantly in the water at the beach or pool, but my pedicures never last in the summer. After less than just two weeks they start chipping and my skin starts peeling, which is not the move when I wanna be wearing cute sandals all the time.

5. Summer Flings

They never last, but it's fun during the months where the sun doesn't set until nine. Then they end and become a simple memory.

6. No Nude Bras

I love wearing fun colored bras, and sometimes I don't mind when they are peeking through my clothing, but in the summer I wear so many light colored shirts that my two nude bras can't keep up with my wardrobe choices. Inevitably, when my sensible bras are in the wash, I'll attempt to pair a dark red bra with light pink shirt hoping that no one will notice the difference. They notice.

7. Pink Cheeks

Maybe it's just my facial structure, but somehow I always manage to burn my cheeks no matter how much sunscreen I slather on.

8. Bye Bye Hair Tie

For some reason, I'm always running low on hair ties in the summer. Either they break super easily, or they fall out of my hair while swimming without me realizing. Either way, I'm left with a naked wrist and a burning hot neck.

9. Booty Shorts Verses Hot Car Seats

There is no worse experience than feeling super cute in your short shorts, only to have your thighs slightly seared the moment you sit down in your car.

10. Chapped Lips Pits

I go to extremes to prevent this from happening by using only medicated lip balm and reapplying almost every other hour, but I wouldn't wish chapped lips (especially when you're kissing someone) on anyone.

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.

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.
