30 Thank You's I Owe To My Lifelong Besties
Personal Photo

Not everyone is lucky enough to be born with a built-in best friend like I was, but everyone can relate to these everyday thank you's they owe their lifelong bestie. Some friendships are just simply irreplaceable, and will always hold close to your heart. It may be easy to take these special relationships for granted; which is why I owe my best friends a reminder of why I hold them so close to my heart.

I'd like to say thank you for...

1. Showering me with compliments when I need it.

2. Letting me vent and cry when I need to let it all out.

3. Sitting in silence with me and everything being perfectly normal.

4. Hours and hours long of FaceTime calls.

5. Finishing my sentences for me.

6. Laughing with me about the same things for hours.

7. And laughing at me, too.

8. Loving my family as much as I do.

9. Lending me your mom as my own.

10. Giving me the most honest advice without hesitation.

11. Sharing anything and everything.

12. Instantly snapping me out of my bad moods.

13. Encouraging and supporting me to step out of my comfort zone.

14. Never letting time apart affect our friendship.

15. Being the twin sister I've always wanted.

16. Hating the same people I hate.

17. Having my back no matter what, even if you don't always agree.

18. Always being down for taking pictures.

19. Dreaming about our wedding days and future maid-of-honor obligations.

20. Really listening to me when I need an ear.

21. Telling me absolutely everything, even things that are hard to hear.

22. Sticking by my side through my "off" days.

23. Giving the most honest shopping advice.

24. Never judging me for my mistakes.

25. Hating my exes (sometimes more than I do).

26. Being my go-to for long car rides with the windows down and music blaring.

27. Accepting me for me, without question.

28. Being the longest and most stable relationship in my life.

29. Giving me your trust without a doubt.

30. Always wanting the best for me, even when I don't realize it.

No one could ever replace my best friends. I'm more than thankful for the unique aspect that each of these friendships bring into my life, and I know that I couldn't survive without them. Not only is it the most reassuring feeling in the world to have a group of girls that always have your back, but it also doesn't hurt to know you have a solid group of bridesmaids holding your hand until the very end.

The Great Christmas Movie Debate

"A Christmas Story" is the star on top of the tree.

The Great Christmas Movie Debate
Mental Floss

One staple of the Christmas season is sitting around the television watching a Christmas movie with family and friends. But of the seemingly hundreds of movies, which one is the star on the tree? Some share stories of Santa to children ("Santa Claus Is Coming to Town"), others want to spread the Christmas joy to adults ("It's a Wonderful Life"), and a select few are made to get laughs ("Elf"). All good movies, but merely ornaments on the Christmas tree of the best movies. What tops the tree is a movie that bridges the gap between these three movies, and makes it a great watch for anyone who chooses to watch it. Enter the timeless Christmas classic, "A Christmas Story." Created in 1983, this movie holds the tradition of capturing both young and old eyes for 24 straight hours on its Christmas Day marathon. It gets the most coverage out of all holiday movies, but the sheer amount of times it's on television does not make it the greatest. Why is it,
then? A Christmas Story does not try to tell the tale of a Christmas miracle or use Christmas magic to move the story. What it does do though is tell the real story of Christmas. It is relatable and brings out the unmatched excitement of children on Christmas in everyone who watches. Every one becomes a child again when they watch "A Christmas Story."

After talking to a few of my friends at college, I realized that a lot of them don't really have "Christmas traditions" in their family, and I want to help change that. Here's a list of Christmas traditions that my family does, and anyone can incorporate into their family as well!

It’s here; that time of year when college students turn into preschoolers again. We cry for our mothers, eat everything in sight, and whine when we don’t get our way.
