I will sleep in, apply for big kid jobs, and probably cry.

When we first turn 21, we go out and do all of the things that we couldn't do before.

The same thing applies when we graduate from college. There was so much that we couldn't say or do before, but now we have that $50,000 - $500,000 piece of paper that allows us all opportunity to "be an adult" and do what we want.

Here are 10 things I will do now that I've graduated college:

1. Spend the first month binge watching all the shows I couldn't watch while studying.

2. Sleep in passed 10 am on a Monday for the first time in 5 years.

3. Throw away all of the notebooks. highlighters, and other, now useless, things in my house.

4. Apply for all of the big kid jobs that I can.

5. Cry after realizing the demands of a big kid job.

6. Make sure everyone I encounter for the next two months knows that I am a college graduate.


7. Rub it in the faces of everyone who still has to go to classes.

8. Enjoy having money in my bank account before having to pay back student loans.

9. Debate going back to school to avoid having to pay back said loans.

10. Realize that I am officially now an adult and no one can fuck with me.

I will accomplish all of these within the next couple of months. And number 10 is the rest of my life. Just you wait.

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.
