What Makes Me An Onion

These are the layers people don't normally see in me.

As Shrek gave Donkey the lesson about onions and ogres, "No. Layers. Onions have layers. Ogres have layers. Onions have layers. You get it? We both have layers.", I decided I'd write about what makes me an onion. As much as people dislike onions, I couldn't help but write about them because I love this analogy so much. Everyone has their own unique layers, so here are mine.

1. I'm the biggest nerd.

Whether it be romantic novels, Star Wars movies, or Harry Potter, you can count me in! I never truly show this layer of me because it's one of my guilty pleasures. There's nothing I love more than spending a rainy day, in bed, curled up, watching one of these series, or reading endless books about sappy love stories.

2. I have the biggest heart.

I've always had a big heart when it comes to everyone and anyone. I'm always trying to get involved in as much as I possibly can that will help or benefit others. If I'm not thinking of other's before I'm thinking of myself I feel guilty. There's nothing I love more than being able to make others smile, and laugh. It's genuinely the most incredible feeling. Someone could slap me in the face, and I would simply say thank you.

3. Art is my everything.

Many people take their frustration out in the form of working out, or playing a sport. For me, it's art. Whether I'm painting, drawing or taking pictures, I'm in my happy place. Being able to relax my mind and focus on the paper and the lines is my zen.

4. I love puppies more than I love myself.

This is not an over exaggeration. I would and will do anything for puppies. I mean who wouldn't? They give the best kisses and the best snuggles. Plus they don't give you attitude or make snarky comments. In all honestly I would sell my organs for puppies. I appreciate their fluff more than anything.

5. I'm passionate about everything and anything.

Once I get involved with something whether it be a relationship, a hobby, an activity, or a job, I give my all and hold nothing back. I get attached to them easily, which can be a good and bad quality, depending on how you look at it. Why bother getting involved with anything if you are only going to half ass it?

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.
