Having good friends is so important! The memories that I have made with my friends are so unforgettable. They are a group of people that I will always love and appreciate. Each of my friends plays a very different, but crucial role in my life, and I strive to show them that I care every chance I get. Having fun with them and being that “shoulder” for them to lean on. is the role that I play most. As you keep reading, I will explain just how I do that and add thoughtful gifts to the equation!
One way that I show my friends that I love them is by listening. When one of them is going through a tough time, it is important that I stop talking to just sit and listen. Sometimes, you may not have all the right things to say, but just listening to them could mean the world to them and it gives them a chance to decompress when they may not have had the chance. One thing I always suggest to my friends is self-care. If you don’t take care of you, there is no way you can take care of anyone else. Face Masks such as the Que Bella Face Mask Pamper Pack sold at Target is the perfect gift to give a friend who needs to relax. (Retail: $9.99)
The second way I show my friends that I appreciate them is by spending time with them and creating new memories. A lot of my really good friends from college live in different places, so making it a point to spend quality time with the people I love is important. When birthdays and the summer break come around we make it a point to get together to spend time talking, catching up with one another, and just having fun. And you can’t forget pictures! The Polaroid Originals OneStep 2 VF Instant Film Camera is the perfect camera to bring along on those girl outings. (Retail: $99.99)
I also love to be the gift giver of all my friends. As I mentioned before, we like to get to get together for birthdays. Recently, one of my friends shared that she was thinking about transitioning. My first instinct was to jump in and help suggest products that will help her along her transitioning journey because I know that is what helped me when I first started my journey. My favorite UFD products to use are the Curly Magic Curl Stimulator, Supercurl Miracle Moisture Crème, and Thirsty Curls Leave In Curl Revitalizer. They are the perfect product to use to create any style you think of, and all available in the Ultimate Travel Kit, available at Target!
If you are loyal and good to your friends, they will be good to you. Make sure you listen when you need to, spend time with them when you can, and most of all have fun and make memories!
