10 Things Every Nerd Can Relate To
Odyssey

1. When you look on the syllabus and see you have to write 4 research papers, you do a little happy dance on the inside and start writing your outline for your first paper as soon as you get back from class.

2. You turn down going out on a weekend night to finish your assignments that aren't due for weeks.

3. You're at the library more than you're in your bed sleeping.

4. Quizlet is your best friend.

5. Your notes are very colorful, organized, and have way more information than necessary. (Seriously, you could just sell your notes as a textbook. Nobody would know the difference, right?)

6. When you do procrastinate, the stress hits you HARD.

7. You get bored during breaks with no schoolwork to do.

8. You're the person everyone comes to for answers when they didn't get their homework done.

9. Most of your friends are ones you made through one of your many study groups.

10. You embrace every little quirk that lets you call yourself a nerd!

Blair Waldorf Quote
"DESTINY IS FOR LOSERS. IT'S JUST A STUPID EXCUSE TO WAIT FOR THINGS TO HAPPEN INSTEAD OF MAKING THEM HAPPEN." - BLAIR WALDORF.

For six straight years, we would all tune in every Monday at 9:00 p.m. to see Upper Eastside royalty in the form of a Burberry headband clad Blair Waldorf. Blair was the big sister that we all loved to hate. How could we ever forget the epic showdowns between her and her frenemy Serena Van Der Woodsen? Or the time she banished Georgina Sparks to a Christian summer camp? How about that time when she and her girls took down Bart Bass? Blair is life. She's taught us how to dress, how to be ambitious, and most importantly, how to throw the perfect shade.

We've all been there. From move-in day to the first finals week in college, your first term is an adventure from start to finish. In honor of college decisions coming out recently, I want to recap some of the most common experiences college freshmen experience.

1. The awkward hellos on move-in day.

You're moving your stuff onto your floor, and you will encounter people you don't know yet in the hallway. They live on your floor, so you'll awkwardly smile and maybe introduce yourself.

Here are some helpful reminders about life in college.

1. "If I'm wearing black tomorrow, it's because I'm mourning my grade."

"Since when do you have money to buy something anyway?"

10. "I wonder if I could sneak a beer in here."

11. "I just really want chocolate chip cookies."

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.
