Dear Guy Best Friend,

I personally wanted to take this time to say thank you. There have been so many times, day and night, that I should have said this more or should have said it louder, because you honestly deserve this thank you and eight kajillion more.

Thank you for always being there when I needed you the most.

I could have seen you five minutes ago or maybe it has been five years, but this never stopped you. Thank you for never letting time get in the way between us two. It never mattered where I was or what you were doing, but you always made time to at least make sure that I was okay. You have always been there for me with 100-mile car rides and suffering through 100-degree heat together, and I honestly wouldn’t have it any other way.

Thank you for always making me smile.

Whether I was having a bad day or it was just a look you would give me, you never failed to put a huge grin on my face. You are always cracking a joke or acting like a complete goofball, but I love you for this more than anything. I know that if I am ever having a bad day that you are the person that I want to see and go to. (Even if you hit me with a towel or try to shoot me with a BB gun.)

Thank you for loving me no matter what.

There have been so many times where I have been mean or even pushed you away, but you always take me right back and always forgive me. I know I can be super needy and bratty sometimes, but it has never stopped you from being you and still trying to make everything better. You have always been there, and I am so thankful for this.

Thank you for showing me that there are amazing men still in this world.

You always tell me that there is “the one” out there for me, and this is something that I truly believe. As we face our issues differently when it comes to this, I want to thank you for showing me that there are amazing people in this world that are going to go above and beyond to make me happy.

Thank you for loving me for me.

You have never wanted me to change a single bit or want me to be different than the person that I am today. You always make me feel special and loved for the person that I am. Thank you for showing me that it is okay to be me and show me that the person that I am is the best me that I can be. We have both had our fair share of mistakes in the past, and I am glad for them, but thank you for not judging me on mine and accepting that they are for the better.

Guy best friend, you truly are one of the best people that I have ever met in this world. You love and care so much for everyone around you and I don’t know what I would do without you in my life. You are stuck with me now so don’t think that you are going anywhere anytime soon.

I love you so much. Thank you for everything.

Anticipating The End Of Your First Semester, As Told By April Ludgate

"I don't want to do things. I want to not do things."

National Writers Society

NBC Universal

Everyone who is in college right now, or has ever been, knows the struggle of pulling in the strings at the last second. It seems impossible, and you have to do a LOT of things in order to assure your future for the next semester.

April Ludgate, historically, is a very annoyed person, and she doesn't hide it. Of all the times that I binged and re-binged "Parks and Rec," her attitude relates more and more to me.

To The Cheerful Person On Their Rainy Days, You Are Valid

The world is not always sunshine and rainbows, and you do not have to be, either.

Ask friends of mine to name a quality about me, and one a lot them will point out the fact that I am almost always smiling. I like to laugh and smile -- not to quote Buddy the Elf in April, but smiling is my favorite! It is probably my favorite go-to expression. However, what a lot of people do not see is that I have my down days. I have days when smiling and laughing is a real struggle, or when I have so much on my plate that going out of my way to behappy takes more effort than I have stored in me. Be it a symptom of college and growing up or a facet of life, I cannot always be content.

"I don't want to do things. I want to not do things."

1. When you look at the syllabus and realize there are only three weeks of the semester left; even though the first day was LITERALLY yesterday.

2. You look at your grades and realize they probably aren't as high as they should be, which is a terrifying realization.

3. When you think to yourself at night, "tomorrow, I will wake up early and go to the library ALL day, and, hell, maybe after I'll go to the gym for a little bit, just to push myself that extra mile."

4. Tomorrow actually comes. The inevitable and overpowering sense of procrastination is too strong to overcome.

5. But you DO end up going to the library. Not all day though, but still, a while. But no, you do not go to the gym. Still, you made an effort, so you decide to treat yo' self.

6. When you realize you need to schedule a meeting with your adviser because you need to sign up for classes next semester. But you also realize that since you waited until the last minute, you're going to get stuck with all of the crappy classes.

7. When you low-key try to slip into conversation with your professors that you need extra credit because you're that desperate.

8. When it's already the third time you've seen your adviser in two days because you have no damn clue what you're doing and need all the help you can get.

9. When you apply for a job associated with your major even though you have no experience, but you just want to dive headfirst into the deep end of adulthood and get it over with.

The world is not always sunshine and rainbows, and you do not have to be, either.

It would be so much easier to just pay someone to do it for you

1. Figuring out when to start

6. Going through clothes to find what you need

7. Finding out your siblings took something from you
