In This Article:

Here you will find a list of many of the people you will come across in your life, and if you're lucky, you'll be able to give a name to all these characters that you hopefully see day to day. Don't take these friends for granted because they all add a little something to your life, and if you can't name all of them to your personal friends, chances are it might be you...

The Brutally Honest Friend:

They are going to tell you that you that dress isn't flattering or your shoes are awful even if you don't ask. They are the ones you go to for advice, and the ones you run from when you're having a bad hair day.

The Pretty One:

The unsigned model- they just never take a bad picture. Their hair always looks perfect, and you secretly want to be them but will never admit it.

The Smart One:

The smart friend is a tricky one. Some of these creatures are secretly smart and able to go out every night of the week keeping a 4.0 and a positive attitude; while some are always stressed about work and tests but end up doing well anyway. Even though they are not the first person you run to after a bad exam, the smart friend will always be an asset to you.

The Athlete:

They can never hang out because they have practice, a game, a lift, team bonding, fundraising- or they are just too tired to even go out. Either way, when you do finally get to hang with The Athlete, you know you are in for a good time.

The Patriotic Friend:

They always have an American Flag around- on their shirt, in their car, wallet, you name it they have it. They listen to country music and are always up for a debate.

The Singer:

Basically, the rest of us are just waiting for this friend's mixtape to hit iTunes and become a hit, because when we are all in the car singing they always seem to steal the show.

The Dancer:

For some reason, when you go out, this friend always has moves that you remind you why you should stick to the occasional head bob.

The Dramatic One:

Everything is always blown up and out of proportion with this friend. Sometimes you aren't in the mood to put up with the drama, but you know when your boyfriend is acting crazy and you need validation this friend will have your back.

The Gossip Girl:

Always stirring something up. Doesn't matter the day. At least she keeps things interesting. Right?

The Party Animal:

On a Friday night after a long week, you know exactly who you can call for a good night out.

The Drinker:

Now, it is important to remember you love this friend even while you're dragging them back to their room at the end of the night. When you want another round, you always know who to look for.

The Quiet One:

You know what they say, silent but deadly. The quiet friend can sometimes be underestimated because even though they don't say much, they see everything. So be smart with this friend.

The Mom

The Mom of the group is usually easy to spot. She is the one calling for the cab, or taking your friends to the bathroom to make sure they don't fall in. She's fun enough to go out, but smart enough to always be on alert and ready to react.

The Snap Chatter

A classic. This person's snap chat story is filled with pictures, videos, filters and geo-tags. If you want to see a step by step run through of the night, just check out their story and see how it went, because it's basically a movie trailer for the evening and you know they captured every important event from the perfect angle.

The Insta Obsessed:

You know them, you love them. This friend is constantly posting pictures on Instagram of their Starbucks grande iced caramel macchiato, or salad, or cat, or toes in the sand. They ignore the unspoken rules about putting up two instas in one day, and are confident enough to post at any hour.

The Tweeter:

They tweet every passing emotion and thought. If you're mom doesn't have a twitter account, then why are you tweeting: "Happy Birthday Mom"? When you scroll through this person's page its basically a diary of feelings, thoughts, daily activities, threads of "meaningful" rap lyrics, or worse: their political opinions.

The Dog Lover:

Most people like dogs, but the dog lover is another easy one to spot. They are always making snap stories of their dog or random people's pets, and when they come over you question whether they're there for you or your pup.

The Gym Rat:

They live in the weight room. They can be seen wearing muscle tees, roshes and elite socks. They hate CrossFit and live and die by the bench and rack. Do you even lift, bro?

The Sarcastic One:

Always have a quick witted and snide remark to mostly anything you say. As cynical as they seem you can't help but laugh at this friends attitude.

The Couple:

The Couple in your friend group can just be called one person at this point. They are always together, if you invite one you invite the other, and you already expect that you have to put up with the excessive PDA that night.

The Best Friend:

You only get a few of these that embody a little something from each of the other friends you have. They are smart enough for good and honest advice, but crazy enough to go out and have a good time with. These are the ones you keep close.

This is for the girls who have dealt with an emotionally, mentally, physically or verbally abusive father.

The ones who have grown up with a false lens of what love is and how relationships should be. The ones who have cried themselves to sleep wondering why he hurts you and your family so much. This is for all the girls who fall in love with broken boys that carry baggage bigger than their own, thinking it's their job to heal them because you watched your mother do the same.

Blair Waldorf Quote
"DESTINY IS FOR LOSERS. IT'S JUST A STUPID EXCUSE TO WAIT FOR THINGS TO HAPPEN INSTEAD OF MAKING THEM HAPPEN." - BLAIR WALDORF.

The world stopped in 2012 when our beloved show "Gossip Girl" ended. For six straight years, we would all tune in every Monday at 9:00 p.m. to see Upper Eastside royalty in the form of a Burberry headband clad Blair Waldorf. Blair was the big sister that we all loved to hate. How could we ever forget the epic showdowns between her and her frenemy Serena Van Der Woodsen? Or the time she banished Georgina Sparks to a Christian summer camp? How about that time when she and her girls took down Bart Bass? Blair is life. She's taught us how to dress, how to be ambitious, and most importantly, how to throw the perfect shade.

too tired to care

We've all been there. From move-in day to the first finals week in college, your first term is an adventure from start to finish. In honor of college decisions coming out recently, I want to recap some of the most common experiences college freshmen experience.

1. The awkward hellos on move-in day.

You're moving your stuff onto your floor, and you will encounter people you don't know yet in the hallway. They live on your floor, so you'll awkwardly smile and maybe introduce yourself. As you walk away, you will wonder if they will ever speak to you again, but don't worry, there's a good chance that you will make some great friends on your floor!
