I really wasn't feeling the new semester. Personally, I could have used another week off, and I'm sure you all feel the same way I do. I had a lot of thoughts during my first week of classes, and I bet y'all can relate. I compiled a list of my inner thoughts from the week for you all to enjoy. Here are the telltale signs you know you're back for syllabus week.

1. Where did my break go?

2. Ugh is that my alarm?

3. Why? Just why?

4. I miss my dogs.

5. I wanna go back home.

6. Do I reeeeally need to go to this class?

7. *checks attendance policies on the syllabus*

8. Yeah, I should go.

9. Should I dress to impress?

10. If I need to impress them, they aren't people I want as friends anyway.

11. Why is this class so far away from my bed?

12. Why is it so cold?

13. Why is it 30 degrees?

14. Bruh, could you move a little faster?

15. I'm glad you people aren't sitting by me but I'm also offended you aren't sitting by me.

16. Phew, no icebreakers.

17. Why are books so expensive?

18. Wait, you're keeping us for the WHOLE class? On syllabus day??

19. Oh no, an icebreaker. I'm not interesting enough for this!

20. This class is never ending.

21. Surely we must be almost done, right?

22. Oh, we still have forty-five more minutes. Cool.

23. Why did I take an almost-three-hour class?

24. I need a nap.

25. I'm hungry.

26. There are so many people in the dining hall.

27. THIS BUILDING IS A MAZE! WHERE IS MY CLASS?

North Quad, am I right?

28. There's my class.

29. I didn't really want this seat but I sat here so I guess I'm stuck with it for the semester.

30. My professors all seem cool. Thanks, RateMyProfessor.

31. *sees the person you don't like* *mentally makes a face at them*

32. I probably shouldn't eat this. *eats it*

33. Yay, I get to go back to my room!

34. I wish this school had 2-ply toilet paper.

Yes, I actually thought this. Several times.

35. I have absolutely no idea what's going on in this class.

I really should listen better.

36. *avoids eye contact with strangers from previous classes*

Please don't see me. Please don't see me. Please don't see me.

37. How did my desk get so messy?

38. Please turn down your music while driving through campus. You aren't cool.

39. Why do you have to answer every single one of the professor's questions?

40. Will this week ever end?

41. Aaaand it's raining.

And I don't have an umbrella.

42. It's 50 degrees in January.

43. *sits next to the only person you know in the class* *they talk to the person on their other side*

Oh, okay. Thanks.

44. I love this school.

Even if I complain about it (which I do, and often), I will always love my school.

This is for the girls who have dealt with an emotionally, mentally, physically or verbally abusive father.

The ones who have grown up with a false lens of what love is and how relationships should be. The ones who have cried themselves to sleep wondering why he hurts you and your family so much. This is for all the girls who fall in love with broken boys that carry baggage bigger than their own, thinking it's their job to heal them because you watched your mother do the same.

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.

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.
