Thank You For Being My Best Friends

I owe my friends everything, especially a thank you.

To my best friends:

I don't know about you, but my friends are one of the biggest parts of my life. They are my biggest support system to fall back on when things are going sour, and always there for me when I'm on cloud nine. Being a best friend is a thankless job. You have to deal with one another on a very personal level. But as with anything - with great work comes an even better reward. Here is a thank you to my best friends!

Thank you for:

1. Sharing your fries with me even when you didn't want to

because I was probably gonna take them anyways.

2. Actually telling me when my outfit looks ugly.

5. Letting your closet be my closet.

and for letting me *basically* keep those pair of leggings you lent me.

6. "I look fat in this pic can we take another?"

7. "Can you hand my water bottle? I'm in bed."

8. Still loving me even when I don't reply to your texts.

or when I text you a million times in a row.

9. Sitting through countless episodes of my favorite TV show even though you can't stand it.

10. Covering me for coffee.

And fro yo, and pizza and that entire dinner last month

11. And not getting mad when I forget to pay you back.

because it all evens out in the end, right?

12. Laughing at all my jokes.

13. Even when my jokes aren't funny.

Because I'm hilarious even when I'm not.

14. Helping me clean my messy room.

15. Listening to me complain about guys.

All guys are dumb

16. And for never judging me when I went back to boys whom you told me were bad news.

17. Laughing at all my stupid antics.

18. Keeping me company when I run errands.

because a target trip is much more fun with my best friends

19. Lifting me up when I'm sad.

20. Celebrating with me when I'm happy.

21. and keeping me grounded when I get a big head

Thanks for keeping me humble.

22. Letting me pick the music when we are getting ready, even though you don't like it.

23. Being the most amazing friend a girl could ask for.

I love you all forever!

Things I Am Actually Going To Do This Semester

Or at least try to do.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.

Top 20 Thoughts College Students Have During Finals

The ultimate list and gif guide to a college student's brain during finals.

University of Vermont

Thanksgiving break is over and Christmas is just around the corner and that means, for most college students, one hellish thing — finals week. It's the one time of year in which the library becomes over populated and mental breakdowns are most frequent. There is no way to avoid it or a cure for the pain that it brings. All we can do is hunker down with our books, order some Dominos, and pray that it will all be over soon. Luckily, we are not alone in this suffering. To prove it, here are just a few of the many deranged thoughts that go through a college student's mind during finals week.

I know every college student has daily thoughts throughout their day. Whether you're walking on campus or attending class, we always have thoughts running a mile a minute through our heads. We may be wondering why we even showed up to class because we'd rather be sleeping, or when the professor announces that we have a test and you have an immediate panic attack.
