Every year, the West Chester University Incomparable Golden Rams Marching Band somehow manages to top what they had performed in the previous years. With their most recent show, Paint It Black, you can assume that it is going to be very difficult to live up to the standards. Well, the WCUIGRMB has stepped it up a notch in ways you would never expect, and this season we will surely top what has been put out on the field before.

1. The most beautiful bouquet of flowers you've ever seen

Unfortunately, these are not real flowers. Yet they still look absolutely stunning. I've never seen a more beautiful set of flowers in my life. It seems super simple to put together, but they spent quite some time putting it together to make sure it turned out 100% perfect.

Also, all of the props, in general, are gorgeous. Take a sneak peek at these candelabras on top of the tables.

2. Dancing

You might see dancing like this in the pregame show, but there will be pretty amazing choreographed dancing all throughout the show. Our dance moves will be so beautiful we will make you cry.

3. Intense music

Prepare yourselves to dig into The Feast, starting with "Festive Overture", moving onto the ballad "Rhapsody on a Theme by Paganini", and finally closing the show with "Belshazzar's Feast". This will surely be an appetizing experience for everyone to enjoy, and the music will be delightful.

4. Food

Okay, so this is not what we will actually look like in the show. You also don't normally picture food and eating to be a part of a marching band show, considering it is not good to eat and play and instrument right after.What I can tell you though is that there will be grapes involved.

5. A shit ton of fabric

Just take a second to look at this picture and how much fabric it would take to stretch end zone to end zone. For your information, we have ordered even more fabric for this year. For now, it is a secret, but you better prepare yourself for the fabric we will use.

6. 23 tables

Yes, you read that right. Go ahead and read it again if you need a double take. This season you will see 23 tables traveling the field throughout the show (and you can see the man who made them, standing on the table in the picture above.) You can bet that music, choreography, and even eating food will be happening on top of these tables.

7. Insane color guard costumes

There is no photo attached because it is no fun to spoil everything for our fans, but I can assure you that not all of the guests that show up to the feast will be wearing the same outfit. That would be a little awkward, right?

8. We are taking it up a notch

Even I had my doubts that we would be able to top Paint It Black. As a member of the WCUIGRMB, let me tell you that we will exceed your expectations and leave you speechless.

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.
