Four Best Friends Are Better Than One

As told by 'New Girl.'

Four Best Friends Are Better Than One
New Girl

Everyone has that one person they go to for everything, you tell all of your secrets to, always hang out with and would do anything for. As Meredith Grey would say, this is your person. Throughout life, your person will probably change a couple times. Mine did from high school to college. If you're lucky though, you won't have just one person. I have four people that, when you put them together, are my one person, and I wouldn't have it any other way.

They Join Your Crazy

When the five of you go out, you don't worry about not knowing anyone or acting the right way to fit in. You just let loose and be your chaotic selves, because with your little group of five you don't care what others think. You aren't afraid to be looked at or talked about because it isn't just you out there being a fool. It's a group being stupid, and it looks normal!

Dating

Dating can be a struggle. There is always one friend that is either single or having relationship problems. When one of your friends starts dating someone new, they have to be approved by the whole group. This may sound like a downside to having four best friends, but it isn't. It's four people that can look at the situation and get a feel for the potential relationship. Listen to your friends. They know you best.

Back Up

There are times in everyone's life that you are in a situation that you just need someone on your side. Whether it be with an ex, a professor is being unfair, your parents won't listen to what you have to say or even you just need to vent, a best friend is always there for you, so imagine having four other people in your corner to defend you and stand up for you when you sometimes can't do it by yourself!

Activities/Hobbies

Finding someone to join you in your weird activities is much easier when you have four people to choose from, and at least one of them will love the idea of going on some crazy adventure with you.

Finding your person is an important part of life, and sometimes if you're really lucky like me (or just needed more than one person to deal with your crazy), you get to have your only four friends in life, and you wouldn't change a thing!

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?

10 Reasons Why Sisters Are The Best

Who could be a better friend than your own sister?

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.

College involves a whirlwind of emotions, whether it’s from the stress of an assignment (or twenty), or from fighting with your roommate. 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!)
