To My Hometown Girls

You guys have been such a big part of my life.

To My Hometown Girls

Dear my hometown girls,

I can not even begin to express how grateful I am that you all are apart of my life. You guys have always lended a shoulder when I needed to cry. You have made me laugh until my stomach hurts, and you most certainly have never turned down a trip to Laha or Starbucks.

You guys have been such a big part of my life. You were there for the transition from Braxton to ATMS, and then from ATMS to Trinity. You were there through the awkward phases aka middle school, and then helped to keep me sane during what seemed like the longest four years of our lives. You celebrated when I finally chose a college, and we cried as we walked across that stage to receive our diploma. It never seemed real that we had graduated high school and were moving on to bigger and better things.

Even though we are all at three different colleges now, all doing different things and becoming better versions of ourselves, y'all are still the ones who know me better than I know myself. You are the ones who I can call anytime I just need to talk. You are the ones who understand all of my awkward encounters. You are the ones who still give me the best advice and help me make decisions because we all know I'm too indecisive to make them for myself.

For so long now, you have been the ones I have went to when I was bored and just wanted to hang out or when I was stressed to the max and needed to talk to someone who understands. Its the nights spent at each others houses laughing and gossiping that I miss the most. Its the all the spirit weeks we did together, and every rival football game that we attended. It was the trip to the beach we took that one day randomly on spring break. It's memories like this that make me miss our little small town, and being only five minutes away from each other.

So thank you for the endless laughs, jokes, and stories. Thank you for being my best friends through all of the different life phases we encountered, and especially thank you for still being by my side as we journey through this new adventure called college.

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.
