Being a B.F.F as told by 'Friends'

I'll be there for you (when the rain starts to pour), I'll be there for you (like I've never been there before)!

Being a B.F.F as told by 'Friends'

Best friends are so important in life. When you find yours, hold on to him/her and never let them go. They are going to be your other half, some may even say soul sista, or mista! They will be the ones who pick you up when you're down, listen to you rant about people for hours (without getting tired of it), make you laugh endlessly (even in situations where it is completely inappropriate to laugh), but most of all they will be by your side through everything that you go through. I'll say it again for the people in the back, they will be by your side through EVERYTHING that your life deals out! Here are 7 times the 90's classic, 'Friends', has perfectly described what it is to be a B.F.F:

1. They are the only ones who can call you out and bring you back to reality:


Let's be honest, most of us can get out of line. Who am I kidding, we can get totally out of control! Thank goodness for best friends who aren't afraid to step in and knock some sense into us!

2. They can complete your thoughts:

Seriously, how many times have you been in the middle of a sentence and just completely blanked, that's what B.F.F.s are for! They know your every thought, sometimes even when you don't know it!

3. They are down for whatever and they are going to bring the party with them:

I can't count how many times hanging out with my best friend has consisted of doing literally nothing... but she was pumped, so I was pumped! Some of the best memories are from plans that have no direction. Getcha a friend that is willing to be spontaneous and fun with you!

4. They don't let you feel low alone :

If I feel lousy my best friend gets me ice cream, or tells other people to get me ice cream, she makes sure I get ice cream. The point is, she isn't going to let me suffer alone. She will sit there and eat a tub of Ben and Jerry's with me while I pour my heart out!

5. They are your biggest cheerleader:

Being in college, getting a promotion, and anything in between, I know that when I tell my best friend the good news she will break out in a cheer for me! It could be something as small as, "I didn't eat a whole bag of sour cream and cheddar potato chips today!"

6. They know your quarks, like they are their own:

I can't even begin to explain how accurate this is... My B.F.F knows how I am about food and hugs. She is the first to let new people know all about my quarks, i.e. I am always eating something, and I am not a hugger.

7. They can see right through your lies:

Best friends are the ones who can take one look at you, and know something is wrong. They don't even need to hear your fake "I'm fine". Heck, they can probably read your texts and know you aren't fine.

As stated before, best friends are hard to find, so when they come in to your life, let them know just how much they mean to you! I would just like to thank my B.F.F for all she has done, and continues to do for me. I would truly be lost without her in my life! Thank you Jesus, for giving me the sweet soul that is my friend, I promise I will do my best to not be too weird to lose her.... but I can't guarantee anything ;)!

5 Things To Do That Are Better Than Writing A Paper

Don't waste your time trying to write that paper when there are so many more interesting things you could be doing.

Writing a paper is never fun and is rarely rewarding. The writer's block, the page requirement, be specific, but don’t summarize, make sure you fixed any grammatical errors, did you even use spellcheck? and analyze, analyze, analyze.

Papers can be a major pain. They take up so much time and effort that by the end of the process you hate yourself and you hate the professor for making life so difficult. Questions of your existence start roaming in your mind. Am I even cut out for college if I can’t write a single paper? Am I even capable of taking care of myself if I lack the energy to open my laptop and start typing?

10 Reasons Why Sisters Are The Best

Who could be a better friend than your own sister?

sisters

I can barely remember back when I was the only child. Most would say it’s because it is extremely difficult to remember things as a toddler but I would say it's because I was bored until my sister came along. My mother always says how important the "sister bond" is and with every year that passes I realize how right she is. Instead of writing a novel about all of the wonderful things there are about having a sister I decided to list a few of them instead.

It is the time of our lives that we are beginning to enter the adult world and most of us, if not all of us, have no idea what we are doing. It's like starting a video game, but skipping the tutorial. We're all just running around aimlessly hoping we accidentally do something right that moves us along the right path. Now that graduation has just happened, or is right around the corner for some of us, it's time to start thinking about how we are going to take care of ourselves once we are on our own.
