Friday night comes along after a long, hard week and you’re ready for a much-deserved girls' night out. You get dressed and make sure that your eyebrows are on fleek. Then, it’s off to the bar. The drinking starts and everyone's having a good time, but there is always that one friend that goes a little bit too far. By the end of the night, you'll have yourself a drunk friend. Congratulations! Now, you have to take care of her and make sure she gets home safely. Here are the 10 stages of taking care of your friend after a drunken night out.

Stage 1: You have to locate your drunk friend in the crowded bar. We all know how they like to roam.

Stage 2: Then, you have to actually get her to leave the bar. That's always a fun task.

Stage 3: Once you have found her and forced her to leave the bar, you have to get her to the car. She may resist, but don’t back down. Be persistent.


Stage 4: Now that you’re in the car, it’s your job to keep her from texting “that guy” (you know the one I’m talking about).

Stage 5: “There are no singles in your area.” Get her off of Tinder! Swipe left, girl. Just swipe left.

Stage 6: You're finally on your way home and, all of the sudden, you hear, "I want Taco Bell!" That means you have to sit in the long line at Taco Bell to appease your drunk friend's munchies. Did I mention that it's 3 a.m.?

Stage 7: Time to drive your friend to her house and assist her to her bed. She will be talking about how she’s going to be single forever so be prepared for that.

Stage 8: You have to stick around for another 30 minutes, just to be sure she doesn’t try to escape. This keeps her from doing anything stupid.

Stage 9: Make sure you remind her the next day of all of the dumb things she did the night before.

Stage 10: Now, it’s your turn to have a drunken night of fun and she gets to take care of you this time. What goes around, comes around.

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?

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.

If you’re anything like me, you love a good cup of coffee. My coffee always comes from Starbucks; I refuse to drink it from anywhere else. Over the years, it’s become one of my biggest addictions. So, if you are aware that you’re a Starbucks addict as well, or maybe you need to check to see if you’re an addict, here are seven ways to tell.

It can be overwhelming at times and it’s important to take a step a back and calmly think things over. Maybe gain some perspective. The following aren’t foolproof tips and may not apply to you, but I was able to find success with them (hope you do too!)
