11 Things College Students Say And Do When They Come Home

College is undeniably one of the best experiences any person can have, however, sometimes it's nice to get away from the chaos of it all. Some college students go away strictly on long breaks such as winter and fall break, but others, go back for long weekends. The funny part of it all, is all the little things the college students do or say when they're back home.

1. No more shower shoes! No more shower shoes!

Probably the best thing that happens off campus.

2. Wait, there's actual food?

Let's be real, we all appreciate a good home cooked meal.

3. Sleep

Getting more than five hours of sleep on campus is unheard of.

4. Attacking pets with affection

Some cry and some immediately drop to the floor to play with their furry friends.

5. What curfew?

Many of us students go back to our childhood home, and sometimes that comes with rules we are used to not having, including curfew. I have to be back at what time now?

6. Where's my roommate?

Majority of us college students have a roommate on campus, but at home we have our own rooms! But who are we supposed to say weird stuff to at 2 am?

7. Friends

We all freak out and can't wait to see our friends back home, but immediately miss our friends back on campus.

8. Where's the 3 am delivery?

College campus' are surrounded with awesome places that delivery crazy late, or early depending on how you look at it!

9. Driving

Sometimes taking a car to college isn't always easy... so you leave it at home. Your car becomes your new best friend. Goodbye walking and constantly sore legs!

10. Family

As much as they get on our nerves, when it comes down to it, we love and miss them.

11. I miss campus....

Before we know it we want to go back.

7 Ways to Make Your Language More Transgender and Nonbinary Inclusive

With more people becoming aware of transgender and non-binary people, there have been a lot of questions circulating online and elsewhere about how to be more inclusive. Language is very important in making a space safer for trans and non-binary individuals. With language, there is an established and built-in measure of whether a place could be safe or unsafe. If the wrong language is used, the place is unsafe and shows a lack of education on trans and non-binary issues. With the right language and education, there can be more safe spaces for trans and non-binary people to exist without feeling the need to hide their identities or feel threatened for merely existing.

Blair Waldorf
Stop Hollywood

For those of you who have watched "Gossip Girl" before (and maybe more than just once), you know how important of a character Blair Waldorf is. Without Blair, the show doesn’t have any substance, scheme, or drama. Although the beginning of the show started off with Blair’s best friend Serena returning from boarding school, there just simply is no plot without Blair. With that being said, Blair’s presence in the show in much more complex than that. Her independent and go-getter ways have set an example for "Gossip Girl" fans since the show started and has not ended even years after the show ended. Blair never needed another person to define who she was and she certainly didn’t need a man to do that for her. When she envisioned a goal, she sought after it, and took it. This is why Blair’s demeanor encompasses strong women like her.
