I've seen it all when it comes to winter, from no snow to every single thing being covered in snow. It's a struggle, but it's kind of cool to see what happens year to year because it's always different. So with the recent snowfall this past weekend, here's a list of things you'll understand if you've ever gone through a winter in the good old town of Erie, Pennsylvania.


1. Flashback to winter of 2015: "Hey Merry Christmas everyone let's all wear shorts and go outside because it's like 70 degrees and there's no snow I love grass sledding."


2. "How am I supposed to lift this Christmas tree which is twice the size of me when I'm literally a marshmallow who can't feel their hands?"


3. "Okay I have a cute sweater I just need to wear three layers underneath it, plus two coats. I should be fine; I may just get minor frostbite."


4. "I love having to heave my leg out of a snow pile every time I step."


5. "No Mom I can't go get the mail; the snow is piled halfway up the door."

6. "Hey at least now I'm not obligated to go outside because I quite literally can't so now I can stay inside and stay warm and eat."


7. "OH MY GOSH IT'S SNOWING IT'S SO PRETTY, OH MY - wait what do you mean it's only October?"


8. "Christmas without snow is like hot chocolate without marshmallows."


9. "Hey remember when we were colder than the South Pole at one point? Yeah those were the days."

10. "CHRISTMAS MOVIES ARE HERE! CHRISTMAS MOVIES ARE HERE! SHOUT IT FROM THE ROOFTOPS!"

11. "I can't get my hair cut short or wear it up, because then I'll risk getting frostbite on my neck even though that doesn't sound possible."

12. "Why did I think a sweatshirt was a sufficient coat I'm literally going to become a human icicle."

13. "ARE YOU SURE THERE'S A TWO HOUR DELAY DON'T MESS WITH MY FEELINGS LIKE THAT."

14. "OH MY GOODNESS THERE REALLY IS A TWO HOUR DELAY I GET TO SLEEP."


15. "I LOVE HAVING SNOW DAYS EXcept we have to make it up when the weather is- wow I actually hate this."

16. "I SLIPPED AGAIN OH MY GOSH THAT'S COLDDDDD."

17. "I hate the snow why is there so much of it now I have to shovel."

18. "OH MY GOSH THE SNOW IS MELTING I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS FOR 50 YEARS."

19. "Wait it's February and there's no snow this feels so weird."

20. "Can the snow come back?"

21. "Wait I didn't mean it."

22. "But it is really pretty outside."

23. "And snow is kinda fun."

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

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.
