You have friends and you have blunt friends. There is a huge difference between the two and it is easy to pick out. Sure, you may be able to go to your friend to always make you feel better, but your blunt friend will always be honest with you and lead you down the right path. They are some of the best friends you will ever have.

Everything they have to say about you, they will say to you.

Sure, there may come a time when your blunt friend may say something about you to someone else, but you can be sure that it is nothing you haven’t heard before from this friend. They always tell you what they think and if you think they are talking about you, ask, they will tell you exactly what was said without holding anything back. This makes them some of the most reliable people you will ever meet in your life, you can always count on hearing from them directly on exactly how they feel about you.

You always get the truth, even if it hurts.

You always go to your friends for advice, who doesn’t. When you come to your blunt friends for advice you can bet that you are going to get the truth whether you want to hear it or not. Don’t come to this friend with a problem if you just want to hear the positives because his type of friend is going to give you both sides and more than likely leave you to figure it out for yourself. It isn’t their life; it is yours, therefore your decision. They give you everything, even if it upsets you.

They are always a good time.

You never know what is going to happen with this friend. There is always something different that is going to happen and that is what keeps things interesting. There is never a dull moment with this friend and you never know what crazy adventures you will get into.

They will teach you that it is okay to be yourself without holding back.

Sometimes it is hard to branch out and come out of your comfort zone. When you have a blunt friend, they quickly show you that it is okay to be100% yourself, because that is what they are always doing. There is no reason to hide what you are truly thinking or feeling, so let it out. This friend will show you that being yourself is more fun, more honest, and ultimately easier.

You know they are a true friend.

You know you are getting the person that is in front of you at all times. They are blunt and honest and they don’t hide things. You know they will always be there for you and always have your back no matter what. They keep you grounded and on the right path but also always keep a smile on your face with their spontaneous nature. Blunt friends are some of the most unique individuals you will ever meet, hold on to yours and never let go.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.

Thanksgiving break is over and Christmas is just around the corner and that means, for most college students, one hellish thing — finals week.

I know every college student has daily thoughts throughout their day. Whether you're walking on campus or attending class, we always have thoughts running a mile a minute through our heads. We may be wondering why we even showed up to class because we'd rather be sleeping, or when the professor announces that we have a test and you have an immediate panic attack.
