We all have a person, and when that person makes some new friends, we tend to forget all the great things that can come out of it. Never forget how special they are to you and why you are best friends.

Her friends will become your friends.

I mean who doesn't want new friends?

You get to see how your best friend acts around other people.

You know her like the back of your hand, but it's always super fun to see how she fits into another group.

You'll feel like a proud mom.

When you see how she fits in so well with her new friends, you will feel like you had some hand in it by helping her become such a great friend. Let's be real: you probably had nothing to do with it because she's awesome and anyone is lucky to be her friend. But nonetheless, you're proud of her for being a functioning human.

She'll ask your opinion.

Not that it really matters, but you'll love them because you love her.

She'll send snaps of you to them.

When she's not with them she's with you, and you do stupid things sometimes. Of course she will catch those stupid things on camera. They will look at whatever you're doing and question your sanity, but it's fine.

Your social calendar will become a little more crowded.

They know y'all do everything together, so when they make plans they will make sure you're in the loop.

You get to see her genuinely happy.

When she's happy and living well, you'll be happy for her.

The time y'all spend together will be even more special.

Since you aren't together every waking moment of every day anymore, the time you get to spend with her will feel so much more special.

She'll always have a story to tell you.

She'll come back from something and want to tell you all about it. That's when you sit there and listen like the good friend that you are.

You know she will always love you.

No matter how busy she gets with her new friends she will never forget about you. She will still come to you about anything and you will still be the dynamic duo. There's nothing that will change the friendship you have because you found your soul sister, and soul sisters never lose touch.

11 Things Summer Nannies Can Relate To

As a college student, being a nanny over the summer is both enjoyable and challenging. Underneath the seemingly perfect trips to the pool or countless hours spent playing Monopoly are the obstacles that only nannies will understand.

For my fellow summer nannies out there, I know you can relate.

If it hurts now, it'll hurt again. Not because you're gullible or naive, only because you fall fast, hard, and you do it every time.

We fall each and every time with the complete and utter confidence that someone will be there to catch us. Now that person we SWORE we were never going to fall for has our hearts, and every time we see them our palms start sweating. The butterflies in our stomach start to soar and our hearts are entirely too close to bursting out of our chests.

A bond between a person and their horse is a bond so strong that it cannot be broken. Everywhere I went I wanted to be around horses, even forcing my family to go on trail rides during vacations.

College is super hard. Between working, studying, and having a social life, it feels like a struggle to just keep afloat.

I understand. When you feel like your drowning and there's no way to stay afloat I understand that it feels like everyone else is doing just fine. I understand all the frustration, long nights in the library, and that feeling that you want to just throw in the towel. I understand that sometimes it's too hard to get out of bed because your brain is already filled with too much information to remember. I understand because I am also feeling pretty burnt out.

Some of the best advice I've ever received was from my social studies teacher in sophomore year of high school. He stated, "If you don't know it at midnight, you're not going to know it for the 8 a.m. exam, so get some sleep."

It's such a simple piece of advice, but it holds so much accuracy and it's something that the majority of college students need to hear and listen to. "All-nighters" are a commonality on college campuses in order to cram in studying for an exam that is typically the next day.
