Semester Fall-out

10 Signs the End of the Semester is Near

It's that time of year again. You can see it in the eyes of your teachers and the tears of your classmates. That unfortunate time of year between Thanksgiving and Christmas break where hearts are broken, GPA's either rise or fall and coffee shoppes are flooded with struggling students.

1. Everyone all of a sudden cares about their grades

2. Sleep is a rare blessing


3. Coffee is the only thing keeping you alive

4. Countdowns somehow make the days more bearable

5. You would do anything to be back at Grandmas eating Turkey and pumpkin pie

6. Ugly sweater parties are about the only thing worthy enough to stop studying for

7. "D's get degrees" is more of a lifestyle then a motto

8. You left how much you care about your looks in the back pocket of the jeans that you aren't going to wear

9. Giving a friend a scantron and a #2 pencil is the definition of true friendship


10. Every other commitment and relationship is put on hold and all that matters is getting a C in History class.

You are on the final lap and you can see the light at the tunnel. Keep depriving yourself of sleep and sunshine, the end is near. Your GPA will thank you for your lack of social life. Good luck and may Starbucks be with you!

Dear High School Friend Group,

My sweet angels, where would I be without you guys. We all grew up together because we either met in middle school or high school and watched each other grow up and get "old." We got to go to prom together and then graduate together. Then watched each other as we continued our lives in college, joining sororities and meeting people who will impact our lives forever. It all has happened so fast.

Oh college, we can’t live with you, but we can’t live without you. It’s a love/hate relationship, really. College is an experience that no one can ever prepare you for, and maybe that’s a good thing. You never really expect any of the things that college encompasses until you are there. College is fun, but don’t have too much fun. C’s get degrees, but they don’t get you into graduate school.

Blair Waldorf

The "Gossip Girl" series may be over, but Blair Waldorf's iconic character lives in our hearts forever. Blair was the queen of the Upper East Side, and a character you either loved or hated. She taught us everything we needed to know about life, love and of course, how to score a Chuck Bass. So the next time you feel a bit lost and are in need of guidance, look no further than to the Queen B herself.

As I spend my Sunday avoiding my homework and other adult responsibilities, I realized that I've watched this series over and over about a million times. Sadly, there isn't a Blair quote I don't know, so I came up with a list of a few favorites. You know you love her...xoxo

College is an endless cycle of crappy, sleepless nights, tedious, boring lectures, and hours of never-ending piles of homework.

Summer: a time (usually) free from school work and a time to relax with your friends and family. Maybe you go on a vacation or maybe you work all summer, but the time off really does help. When you're in college you become super close with so many people it's hard to think that you won't see many of them for three months. But, then you get that text saying, "Hey, clear your schedule next weekend, I'm coming up" and you begin to flip out. Here are the emotions you go through as your best friend makes her trip to your house.
