The one who has always been there for you for as long as you've known them, whether it's been 10 years or six months. Even if you don't like the term, this is your best friend. This is the person who is your ride or die. The person who helps you no matter what happens and the person who well... is probably right.

While our best friends relay a bunch of wisdom upon us, they usually tell us the same things that maybe for once... we should listen to.

1. "He's not the one."

I know he's tall and cute, but if your best friend isn't a fan... maybe you should take a second look.

2. "That outfit looks great on you!"

Your bestie would never steer you wrong.

3. "Don't buy that."

4. "That sounds like a bad idea."

If your bestie isn't on board, then it might be a no-go.

5. "Stop being so dramatic!"

Maybe the fact that you lost your favorite Chapstick isn't THAT big of a deal.

6. "Don't call him!"

Because he doesn't deserve to hear your voice and you don't need to waste your time.

7. "I don't trust her."

If your best friend doesn't trust her, then she has a pretty dang good reason.

8. "You should look for a new job."

If you're complaining THAT much about it, then maybe it's time to get in a better environment.

9. "It's going to be okay."

Because it will.

10. "I will always be there for you."

Because they will.

11 Things Summer Nannies Can Relate To

There are plenty of obstacles that come when taking care of kids, but it's a very rewarding experience.

University of Wisconsin Branch Schools

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. Trading in your valuable summer vacation in return for three months spent with a few children less than half your age may seem unappealing, but so many moments make it rewarding. For my fellow summer nannies out there, I know you can relate.

To The Girl Who Falls Too Fast, Never Be Ashamed Of How Hard You Love

Love hard, every day, and never be ashamed.

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.

Growing up I have always wanted to own a horse. My grandparents own a well known equestrian facility in Georgia, so I have been riding since I was born. 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. Horses have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember has taught me great responsibility, as well as 14 things that all equestrians can relate to.

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.

No Matter How Challenging School Gets, You Have To Put Your Health First — A Degree Won't Mean Anything If You're Dead

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.
