8 Things To Do Since College Football Is Over

If you go to a school that heavily revolves around football, you know that college football is a lifestyle. Your life during the fall semester revolves around who you're playing that week, what your chances are, who's injured, and where you're watching the game. The football team dominated everyone's social life on Saturday's, but now that the season is over, you seem to have to find a way to fill that empty void. While these alternatives can't beat watching a game with all your friends, they can at least keep you busy until next season.

1. Watch Pro Football.

Even though there's no marching bands, football is still football. However, this option doesn't last as long as the others because the professional season only has two more months.

2. Basketball season.

Just because football season is over doesn't mean the school spirit stops. Basketball can keep you occupied, up until March at least.

3. Actually sleep in on a Saturday.

When the football game starts at 3 p.m., you usually are awake and getting ready before 11. Now at least you can sleep in since you don't have to ever worry about missing kick off.

4. Rewatch highlights.

In case you want to relive the glory moments. Or, if Showtime made a TV series about your team, you could rewatch all those episodes.

5. Get ready for the NFL Draft.

Warning: it's bittersweet to watch your favorite players move on without you. But of course it's exciting to see where they might end up.

6. Stock up for next season.

Everyone can use more fan apparel, especially those fans who live in colder states. You can start stocking up for actual winter apparel for next season.

7. Watch the hype videos.

They won't come out until next summer, but they'll pump you up for next season. Or, if you're really bored, just make one yourself.

8. Study.

Just kidding.

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.

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!

8. "Rate My Professor screwed me over."

9. "I wore these clothes yesterday, and maybe even the day before, but it's fine."

11. "I just really want chocolate chip cookies."

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.
