13 Reasons Why Your College Friends Are Your Best Friends

Thank you for loving me, even when I get hangry.

13 Reasons Why Your College Friends Are Your Best Friends
Jamie Marcelo

I am so grateful to have been given the opportunity to go away to school. I’ve learned so much academically, learned to live on my own, grown as a person and I have made the most amazing friends. I’ve laughed, cried, laugh and cried at the same time with these people. Without them, my college experience wouldn't have been half as great. Below are 13 reasons as to why your college BFFs are the absolute best.

1. You basically have sleepovers 24/7.

Who doesn’t love slumber parties?

2. 1 a.m.? You want McDonald’s? One of them will definitely be down.

Like, who wouldn’t want a McFlurry at one in the morning?

3. You’ve managed not to hurt each other throughout the stress of finals and midterms.

We all get a little cranky during finals.

4. They still love you after seeing what you look like in the morning.

I ain’t cute in the morning. Thanks for lovin’ me anyway though.

5. They also still love you whenever you get hangry.

You’re not you when you’re hungry. You’re hungry and angry = HANGRY.

6. You can do absolutely nothing with them and still have the time of your lives.

Me: Want to come to my room and take a nap or something?

BFF: Hell yeah.

7. They still consider you their friend after you’ve drunkenly ugly cried to them.

That means a lot.

8. You’re brutally honest with one another.

Do you like this selfie? Be honest.

9. They’re great gym/diet partners….for the most part.

BFF: Wanna go to the gym? And eat salads for dinner?

Me: Yes!!

*next day*

Me: Wanna go to the gym?

BFF: Not really. Come get fries with me. And ice cream.

Me: Kk.

10. It’s always a judge-free zone.

Did you eat 12 chicken nuggets in two minutes? Only a true friend would applaud that accomplishment.

11. They’re the perfect Secret Santa partners when the holidays roll around.

Nine out of 10 times, it’s never a secret. You always end up telling each other who you have.

12. They're great shopping partners. And encourage you to buy those cute shoes you’ve been wanting.

Me: Ugh, I love these but I’m sooo broke.

BFF: YOLO?

Me: You’re right.

13. You’ve all lived together for four years.

If you guys managed to live together for years, nothing else can stop you.

Shoutout to all the college BFFs out there. We love ya!!

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
