Whether it's a long drive for a family vacation, business, or because you're on the run from the cops, most all of us have found ourselves stuck in a car for a long period of time before. And for those of you who have done both solo journeys and trips with others, you know that it's about 3000 percent more exhausting to travel with a car full of other human beings than it is to travel with just yourself. This past week, I drove a whopping 11 1/2 hours with my two best friends to Nashville, TN in the middle of the night for a little friend-getaway. But that doesn't matter, what does matter is that I decided a lot of the thoughts I was having could be better summed up and complimented by "RuPaul's Drag Race" gifs. So here we are, a list of thoughts I had while driving as told by "RuPaul's Drag Race":

Hour 1:

This drive will be easy.

Hour 2:

We have so many snacks and drinks, it is a literal paradise.

Hour 2.5:

I have to pee right now and the next rest stop is 25 miles away.


Hour 3:

If I hear one more Taylor Swift song I'm going to crash this car. That's it, I'm putting on my music, because I am driving, and no one can stop me.

Hour 4:

I can't believe they took the AUX cord away from me.

Hour 5:

Both my friends have fallen asleep and have left me to drive I-81 all alone.

Hour 6:

I am sick of eating granola bars, chips, and Swedish Fish. I want real, actual, food.

Hour 6.5:

I guess McDonald's is fine.

Hour 7:

Only 400 more miles until we're there!

Hour 8:

This was a terrible idea. I'm so tired. I'm going to die.

Hour 9:

*sings along to the entire "Grease" soundtrack as a coping mechanism*

Hour 10:

Everyone is asleep again.

Hour 11:

We're so close. We're so close to our destination. We're SO CLOSE.

After Arriving:

That was brutal and I can't believe I have to do it again in four days to get back home.

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.

1. The Legacy.

Her sister was a member, her mom was a member, all of her aunts were members, and her grandma was a member. She has been waiting her whole life to wear these letters and cried hysterically on bid day. Although she can act entitled at times, you can bet she is one of the most enthusiastic sisters.

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.
