You don't have to be a woman. You don't have to be a feminist. You don't even have to be from Denver. You don't have to be anything but yourself. The Women's March On Denver is happening on Saturday, January 21st in downtown Denver, and you shouldn't miss it.

The Women's March On was created in Washington, and has spread vastly throughout the states. And now, it's in CO!

The Women's March on CO's mission statement reads, "This march is not a protest, but rather an opportunity for all participants to support social justice, human rights and equality, and to demonstrate that we all be vigilant in protecting these rights moving forward."

It's a safe space and safe time to let your voice be heard, without even saying a word. Just by going to the march, you can express that you believe in solidarity for all human rights. It's a perfect opportunity to be apart of something huge, and maybe even revolutionary.

Find a group of friends, and if you're from Grand Junction, make a weekend out of it and participate. You don't even have to march, but to just stand in solidarity with other women is and empowering statement in it of itself. Don't let your location, finances, political views, or anything, hold you back from this amazing occasion.

More details about the march can be found here.

Thank You on wooden blocks

1. Thank you for being the one I can always count on to be honest.

A true friend will tell you if the shirt is ugly, or at least ask to borrow it and "accidentally" burn it.

2. Thank you for accepting me for who I am.

A best friend will love you regardless of the stale french fries you left on the floor of your car, or when you had lice in 8th grade and no one wanted to talk to you.

Do as I say, not as I do.

Your eyes widen in horror as you stare at your phone. Beads of sweat begin to saturate your palm as your fingers tremble in fear. The illuminated screen reads, "Missed Call: Mom."

Growing up with strict parents, you learn that a few things go unsaid. Manners are everything. Never talk back. Do as you're told without question. Most importantly, you develop a system and catch on to these quirks that strict parents have so that you can play their game and do what you want.

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!
