7 Signs You're Ready To Go Back To College

The end of summer used to be a depressing time when you were younger, but the thought of moving back into a dorm with your best friends and experiencing everything your campus has to offer has you actually looking forward to summer being over! Here are some of the telltale signs that you’re more than ready to be back on campus:


1. You find yourself looking forward to classes starting because it means actually having something to do.


On days where you’re stuck at home with nothing to do, the thought of homework doesn’t seem all that bad.

2. Back to school shopping gets you excited.


I can’t be the only one that gets excited walking into Target to get new school supplies! And of course, going back to school is an excuse to buy tons of new clothes.

3. You've been texting your roommates daily telling them how much you miss them.


After three months of not living with your friends, you start counting the days until you get to see each other again.

4. You started planning your dorm room decor in June.


Let’s face it, starting college means Pinterest becomes your life.

5. You've slowly been starting to pack for the past two months.


Or you’ve been living out of boxes since you moved back home to avoid having to do it all again.

6. You get visibly more excited when your family asks if you’re ready to go back to school.


With so much to look forward to, how can you not be?

7. Binge watching Netflix doesn’t sound quite as exciting as it did three months ago.


Now that you’ve had all the time in the world to catch up on your favorite shows and finish new ones, you’re ready to return to your campus’ busy atmosphere.

Having a break from the stress that comes with college is nice for a while, but there are definitely more pros than cons of going back and getting closer to whatever you’re working for. Here’s to a great school year!

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.

Winter break is over, we're all back at our respective colleges, and the first week of classes is underway. This is a little bit how that week tends to go.

The professor starts to go over something more than the syllabus

You get homework assigned on the first day of class

There are multiple group projects on the syllabus

You learn attendance is mandatory and will be taken every class

Professor starts chatting about their personal life and what inspired them to teach this class

Participation is mandatory and you have to play "icebreaker games"

Everybody is going out because its 'syllabus week' but you're laying in bed watching Grey's Anatomy

Looking outside anytime past 8 PM every night of this week

Nobody actually has any idea what's happening this entire week

Syllabus week is over and you realize you actually have to try now...or not

Now it's time to get back into the REAL swing of things. Second semester is really here and we all have to deal with it.

Whether you specialized in ringing people up or preparing the food, if you worked at Panera Bread it holds a special place in your heart. Here are some signs that you worked at Panera in high school.

1. You own so many pairs of khaki pants you don’t even know what to do with them

Definitely the worst part about working at Panera was the uniform and having someone cute come in. Please don’t look at me in my hat.
