We all have our days where we aren't feeling quite like ourselves. We get into a slump and nothing can seem to cheer us up or help our mood. (This is by no means a suggestion that depression or anxiety do not exist, but I am writing generally). When we are sad and stuck in a rut, it seems that there isn't much out there that can help make us feel a little bit better. While it is very important to rest well, eat healthy and take time for ourselves, perhaps these five videos can prove useful for self-care. Watching cute animals helps me smile a little more, too. Here are five videos I always love to watch again and again when I'm down.

1. Cutest Sloth Video (Don't Worry, Be Happy)

How can you resist smiling when these happy little fellas come together for an adorable compilation of videos to a relaxing, cheerful song?

2. Doggy Paddle

Precious puppies learning to swim? Yes.

3. Bird Sings If You Are Happy and You Know It

This bird is learning and doing its best; how can that not make you feel warm and fuzzy?

4. Funny Dogs Can't Wait to Go for a Walk

Join their excitement!

5. Maru the Cat

This little kitty is too cute!

While it won't cure sadness, it can help to bring a smile to your face, which is sometimes what we need most.

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.
