9 Reasons Why I'm Ready To Go Back To School
Liana "Lilo" Bustamante

August is here and that means...school is starting again!

Summer has been work-filled and very exciting with great memories, but I'm ready to go back to Stephens College, my second home. I'll be back there in about two weeks and here are just a few reasons I'm excited to go back.

1. I've missed my friends from school.

While some of my friends weren't as far away as others, I've been pretty busy working this summer. I'm excited to go back to school where I'll still work pretty often, but see them on an almost everyday basis on campus.

2. I've been excited about the classes I signed up for since I signed up for them.

Fingers crossed that I remember to turn in the paperwork to take that Spanish class at Miz. But hey, at least I get to take ASL this year -- WOOHOO!

3. New year, new room, new roommate!

Last year was awesome and I loved my room and roommate. However, I'm super excited for this coming year since I've had a year of knowing what life is like on campus!

4. Dorm decorating.

I've been contemplating how I want to express myself via my half of the room this coming year. I have so many posters and ideas on how to decorate and I just can't wait!

5. I'm an OGL this year!

So, an OGL is an Orientation Group Leader. I basically get to help welcome in the incoming freshmen and make their orientation as awesome as possible! I had one last year and I had a whole lot of fun during my orientation week. I also get to move in a week early with them!

6. School events all the time.

I've done some really awesome, fun things this summer like #TWRPhillyTakeover, but I have been working almost every day since June. I'm excited for different events on campus all the time whether it's a midnight breakfast during midterms/finals weeks or a Decorate-a-doorstop event.

7. Making late-night runs...

...to get food. I can leave my dorm and come back basically whenever without feeling bad that I'll wake my family up.

8. New school supplies and DIYs.

I already bought some new notebooks and I've been keeping up with my favorite YouTubers who are already posting their back to school DIYs.

9. Autumn is just around the corner!

Autumn is my favorite season because it's not too hot or cold. I also love the colors of the season and it just brings me the warm fuzzy feelies.

If I have learned one thing in my lifetime, it is that friends are a privilege. No one is required to give you their company and yet there is some sort of shared connection that keeps you together. And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.

College is a great place to meet people, especially through Greek life. If you look closely at sororities, you'll quickly see there are many different types of girls you will meet.

1. The Legacy.

Her sister was a member, her mom was a member, all of her aunts were members, and her grandma was a member. She has been waiting her whole life to wear these letters and cried hysterically on bid day. Although she can act entitled at times, you can bet she is one of the most enthusiastic sisters.

Every kid in college and/or high school dreams of summer the moment they walk through the door on the first day back in September. It becomes harder and harder to focus in classes and while doing assignments as the days get closer. The winter has been lagging, the days are short and dark, and no one is quite themselves due to lack of energy and sunlight. Let's face it: life is ten times better in the summertime.
