10. Salvation


This is the point that all of this sarcasm culminates to. To be perfectly honest, none of those things are even the slightest bit "cool." Except the Peeps. I wasn't kidding there.

As a culture, we get so wrapped up in bunnies and eggs (which rabbits don't lay, so I'm confused) and chocolate and hunting eggs (again, what?) and looking all cute in our pastel colors as even the heathens go to church. When we get wrapped up in those things, we're missing the point.

People go to church on Easter and Christmas to make themselves feel better about themselves. They attend services commemorating two of the most important days in all of history to check off a box.

Easter isn't to celebrate some creepy rabbit coming into our houses. We celebrate Easter to remember the greatest sacrifice that was ever made for us. Jesus Christ got on a cross and died for us. For all of us. You. Me. Your grandma. Your neighbor down the street whose name you don't even know.

Then, three days later, early Sunday morning, Mary Magdalene and a group of women went to the tomb to visit our Savior. The stone was rolled away and Jesus wasn't in there. The cloths wrapping Him up were folded and placed to the side and an angel informed them of Christ's resurrection.

He was our perfect, sacrificial lamb. He took on my sins, your sins, the sins of those to come, the sins of those present, even the sins of those nailing Him to a cross, even though He never had any of His own. He defeated death. He overcame the penalty for the things we did, because He is God and because He loves us.

Jesus already bought us this gift with His blood. He's offered it to us, but like any of the gifts on this list, it isn't really ours until we accept it.

So, take some time today and look at the things He's done for you. Accept His gift of salvation. It's the best one on this list and beats any gift on any list anywhere.

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.
