Speculation has been everywhere surrounding the theme of the much anticipated six season of American Horror Story. Turns out, this year's theme is Roanoke. To make things even more awesome, some genius decided to mask this season as a documentary-esque ghost tv-show entitled, My Roanoke Nightmare. This season also has an incredible cinematic approach.


I first have to say, casting Sarah Paulson as Lily Rabe in the re-enactment is so brilliant. It's even more perfect seeing her as the love interest of Cuba Gooding Jr. as they played rivals on the past season of American Crime Story. I love that Kathy Bates is so far a villain. Angela Basset plays an ex-cop battling her sobriety named Lee. I'm anticipating Evan Peters and Lady Gaga will somehow fall in her story line. This season just already has so much to offer and it just started,


The basic plot of this season is a disguise of a tv-show entitled, My Roanoke Nightmare. Matt and Shelby move to North Carolina from Los Angeles (Hotel or Murderhouse connection?) to get a new start. Not long into their stay at their eerie home, they are plagued by odd events such as a dead pig at the door, a hybrid man-pig creature, and a possibly ghost/zombie group of crazies led by Kathy Bates. The episode ends with the group deciding that they have to fight to stay in their home.


This season has definitely given a breath of fresh air into the show, Having to top the past season of Hotel full of erotic, chain smoking ghosts and vampires, Roanoke had a lot to live up to. Roanoke is more on the horror side like Asylum. This season is skipping the camp and drama for real scares. This season also feels the most grounded. These characters are so real; like real people. You actually feel like there are people like them in the world. American Horror Story Roanoke has already littered our brains with excitement. This season has a grand amount of dark imagery that us fans have been dying for. Check in this Wednesday and see what happens next.

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.
