My bestie gal pals are a blessing sent from Jesus himself. Here are all the ways I'm thankful for these amazing women in my life:

They Make Me Laugh

I believe if you don't laugh once a day then that day is wasted. Laughter is important, and friends that make you laugh are even more important.

They Also Laugh AT Me 

Why others may not want people to laugh at them, it actually is a good thing to me. I can be weird or different, and I'd rather have friends that can laugh at my quirks than to actually be rude about it.

They Encourage Me

They encourage me 24/7 in the big and little things.

They Make Time For Me

I can appreciate the fact that we always make time for each other. There are nights that they will come over late at night, just so we can catch up. I want to keep friends like this in my life. They are golden.

They Make Me Better

They push me to be the best version of myself. I am truly, better because of their friendship.

They Love Me For Me

They know my flaws and still love me through it.

They Have The Same Values As Me

We may not agree on everything, but they still hold the same values as me. This is extremely important because when they give me advice, I know that it will line up with what I believe in.

They Accept Me For Me

I never have to try to be someone else when I am around them. I have learned that when you get a group of friends like this, then it actually is relaxing and a nice break when you are hanging out.

They Are Trustworthy

I know that I can tell them anything and everything.

They Are An Answered Prayer

Shout out to my girls, but an even bigger shout out to Jesus for placing them in my life!

Taylor Swift in orange dress playing a moss-covered piano on stage with bright lights.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?
