Conquering the literary world wasn't enough for "Harry Potter" author, J.K. Rowling. She's quickly begun conquering the Twitter world with tons of ferocity and even more snark. And we can't get enough. Here are 10 times our homegurl J.K. absolutely slayed the Twitter game.

1. When She Totally Called Out A Trump Supporter

Rowling hasn't been shy about her feelings towards the 2016 United States presidential election. Does this mean that our dearest president is He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named?












2. When She Shut Down The Westboro Baptist Church

When Ireland legalized gay marriage, J.K. joked that Dumbeldore could marry Gandalf in Ireland. The Westboro Baptist Church decided that they would picket such a celebration, and J.K. was having none of it. It's truly their loss!

3. When She Explained Why No One Saw Dumbledore Being Gay

A fan tweeted at Rowling asking why she decided to make the powerful wizard gay, and why no one saw it coming. Rowling quickly sent this retort explaining why Dumbledore's sexuality wasn't obvious.

4. When She Absolutely Schooled Rupert Murdoch

Seriously, schooled him.

5. When She Wasn't Afraid To Tweet Her Beliefs

But when was she ever afraid to Tweet them? J.K. donated over 1 million pounds to the Scottish government's "Better Together" campaign and got some serious backlash because she's from Britain. People tweeted at her calling her a "hypocrite" a "traitor" and she was quick to defend herself.

6. When She Made Everyone Jealous Of Her Fictional Diamond Studded iPhone

You're really telling me that you don't have an iPhone @Lukekocura? Everyone has an iPhone. Nevertheless, I'd like to know where I can get a similar studded phone?

7. When She Revealed The True Character of Dobby

Because honestly, he totally was. Who actually thinks it would be a good idea to drop Aunt Petunia's cake on the guests? And then there's that whole Quidditch situation...

8. When She Continued Our Favorite Story...In A Tweet

*Cries very real tears because I was not in Edinburgh to say hello to James as he started school*

9. When She Mocked Donald Trump (Again..)

They're just "alternative facts," people!

10. When She Seriously Humiliated Mr. America

Darling Mr. America has basically become internet famous, though, so I guess it's a win win? Plus, no one ever turned into a frog. Get with it.

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.
