"I have never been the girl that is noticed for anything," But I want to be that girl.

I have never been the girl that is noticed for anything. I have never been the popular girl in school. I have never been the most talented at anything. I am not the kind of girl that gets that kind of attention from the boys. I am the girl who has a lot of guy friends but not really any boyfriends. I have never been the girl who is confident in herself since day one — outside or inside. I have never been the girl who has been described as "gorgeous."

I am the kind of girl that feels like she doesn't know what to do with her life. I don't know what I am on this Earth for. I don't feel like I am needed anywhere. I am the girl who feels like your least favorite playing piece from the monopoly game, unimportant but still there.

I want to be the girl that is known for her brains. I want to be the girl that people describe as having a beautiful soul. I want to be the girl that has full confidence in herself and loves herself. I want to be the girl that is kind. I want to be the girl that can take care of herself. I want to be the girl that people say has a transcending mind. I want to be able to say exactly what I am thinking to whoever I want. I want to be that girl that always has something nice to say about you.

I am not the kind of girl who will put you down and be mean just for the sake of being mean. I am not the kind of girl who only cares for herself and her own betterment. I am not the type of girl that cares only for her looks and not for her personality. I am not the type of girl that will judge you by your looks or what you put out to the world.

For all of the things I am not, I can say that I'm proud of the things that I am.

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.

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.
