Dear Summer of 2016,

Thank you for being so worthwhile. With so many amazing things that happened between May and the start of the school year,I truly believe that I had the most fun of any summer during this year's summer.

To start off, the most amazing part of the summer was the Kimye v. Taylor Swift battle. To make it clear, I am, and forever will be, on Kimye's side, for many reasons. But, what made it truly worth it was how much Kim and Snapchat (inadvertently) DRAGGED Taylor Swift with those videos. Even though Taylor tried to recover with her "narrative" statement that completely blamed Kanye, it was obvious that people began to see her as how I've been seeing her for the mast couple years, and she has a lot of work to do to fix her image.

Anyway, different than that was the amount of absolute jams there were this summer. Drake, Ariana Grande, FRANK OCEAN, Rihanna, The Chainsmokers, and soooooo many more. I don't think there was ever a moment where I wasn't dancing crazily around my room or just jamming out randomly at my summer job.

Finally, this is gonna sound cheesy, but thank you for finally having the Olympics again 2016. In 2012, I was just an innocent teenager that really didn't care about sports. I still hate sports, but now I have a deeper understanding of various sports, including the ones that aren't so mainstream. I was actually able to show to people that I knew what I was talking about, instead of just saying "Yaasss Gabby flip!" like I did in all of the London Games.

Other than these monumental events that came with the year, I think 2016 was pretty good. Even though I (and everyone below 22) has to go back to school, I'm happy to say the summer made the wait completely do-able. RIP 2016.

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.

College is a great place to meet people, especially through Greek life. If you look closely at sororities, you'll quickly see there are many different types of girls you will meet.

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.
