Thank you, Dad

Dear Dad,

I cannot thank you enough for all that you have done for me. I hope your Father's Day was everything and more because you are everything and more to our family.

Thank you, Dad

For being my #1 fan

Thank you for supporting me in my passion for dance. Without your financial sacrifices, I wouldn't have been able to learn all of the life lessons that dance taught me over the years. I will forever be grateful for your support in doing what I love.

For giving our family the world

Our family vacations have given me a love of travelling. From Ireland to Aruba to Hawaii, you have given our family the world. These are memories that will truly stick with me forever.

For always supporting me

Leaving for college has definitely made me appreciate all that my parents have done for me. I can't thank you enough for supporting me as I make my dreams come true at college. I hope I can make you proud as I gain a career of my own. I wouldn't be where I am today without your support.

For keeping me weird

No matter how stressful your day was at work, you are always your weird self around our family. You've taught me to embrace my weirdness. I like that I can be weird around you because you are the weirdest of them all. I love each and every one of our silly moments together.

For fostering a love of sports in me

You've taken me to baseball games since before I can remember. Thank you for teaching me the game. I like that I can talk baseball with you now. Watching Penguins' hockey with you is also one of my favorite things. I know, even when I'm old with my own family, I will always want to watch Pittsburgh sports with you.

For giving me the strangest nicknames that will always stick with me

I am almost certain that no other father in the world calls their daughter Pants. The origination of the nickname still remains a mystery to me, but it has become our little thing. There's nothing better than when you come home from work and yell "PANTS". I know sometimes I act like I hate it, but I secretly do appreciate it.

Happy Father's Day, Dad. I love you!

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.

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.
