16 Reasons Being Addicted To Sappy Love Movies Is Ruining My Life
notable

I'm addicted to those late summer nights... curled up with my favorite sappy love movie and it's getting out of hand. It's all fun and games until you realize you’ve watched “A Walk To Remember ,” “The Notebook” and “10 Things I Hate About You” three times each this week. With every addiction there come consequences, like lack of sleep or overall disappointment in the male species. This is when you know you have a problem.

1. Very disappointed at reality 150 percent of the time.

2. What is sleep when you can cry over not having a boy treat you like Noah does to Allie in the “The Notebook.”

3. *Thinks about your love life for more than five seconds*.

4. Regretting watching “Me Before You” because what kind of sick director ends a movie like that.

5. Watching “A Walk To Remember” and realizing you’re a good girl but all these bad boys don’t wanna change.

6. Actually just "A Walk To Remember" in general..

7. When “500 Days Of Summer” convinces you it’s not a love story but when it ends you feel even emptier than you did when it started.

8. You never knew really how badly you want a cowboy until you watch “The Longest Ride” an unhealthy amount of times.

9. When you miss out on plans so you can watch a Nicholas Sparks movie and cry about your love life.

10. When you get a mix of angry and sad from thinking about all the times “The Notebook” never resembles reality.

11. "The Notebook" in general...

12. “Can you hang out?” No sorry I’m too busy watching The Notebook for the 120th time this month.

13. When you finally come to terms with being a hopeless romantic.

14. Waiting till a guy like Heath Ledger “accidentally” falls in love with you aka “10 Things I Hate About You.”

15. *Thinking about all the boys you've talked to*.

16. How about just the overall obsession with every hopeless romantic movie known to man?

It’s a problem being addicted to sappy love movies but maybe it’s okay because it’s raises your expectations for your real love life. Or maybe not. Either way I’m just convincing myself that one Nicholas Sparks movie at a time.

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.

The world stopped in 2012 when our beloved show "Gossip Girl" ended. 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.

11 Moments Every College Freshman Has Experienced

Because we made it, and because high school seniors deserve to know what they're getting themselves into

too tired to care

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. As you walk away, you will wonder if they will ever speak to you again, but don't worry, there's a good chance that you will make some great friends on your floor!

We all freak out when things don't go exactly as planned or when our expectations are unmet. As time goes on, we realize that the uncertainty of college is what makes it great. Here are some helpful reminders about life in college.

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

2. "Do you want to try ordering Chinese takeout to take back to the stacks?"

3. "This final paper has me questioning if this professor just sucks or is Satan himself."

4. "Is that person over there OK? They've been sleeping for a while."

5. "Why are you online shopping?"

"I want to motivate myself to study."

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

6. "I wonder how much I could make as a stripper."

7. "There are no stress relief dogs, and I feel conned. My stress today is worse than yesterday."

8. "Rate My Professor screwed me over."

9. "I wore these clothes yesterday, and maybe even the day before, but it's fine."

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.
