1. Sleeping

We all know we don't get enough sleep as it is, so why not.

2. Stalking friends on social media

Wow, Karen got a dog?! No way! Still, better than homework.

3. Drinking coffee

I mean, we do this while we do homework, but the sweet taste of coffee is so much better sitting on the couch.

4. Hanging with my sorority sisters

So much more fun than homework.

5. Eating gummy worms

Yum. (Also, finding GIFs of gummy worms dunking)

6. Doing jumping jacks

Exercising AND ignoring my homework. Perfect.

7. Basking in the glory of the sweet sun

Oh, another glorious day....not doing homework.

8. Posting pictures of my dogs on social media

They're so cute and cuddly...unlike homework.

9. Googling pictures of Highland Coo

Just do it. I promise.

10. Planning my future on Pinterest

I mean, I'm gonna be getting married soon...right? (so, so single)

11. Trying out new makeup

Spending two hours learning how to make a cat-eye? Sure.

12. Pooping

No explanation needed. At this point I've probably drank at least 12 cups of coffee distracting myself from my homework.

13. Painting my nails

I haven't painted my nails in three months and I have a term paper due tomorrow; that new Essie color is calling my name.

14. Cuddling with my roommate

Ah, sweet serenity.

15. Literally anything

I would rather spend 60 days in the dessert with no water and nothing to eat but beef jerky than do my homework. Okay, maybe not, but I think you get the point.

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.
