It's Okay To Be An Introvert

It's Okay To Be An Introvert
Lifehack

Being an introvert is not a bad thing. It does not mean were snobby or antisocial. In fact, it definitely has its perks. You embrace the small things in life and are most likely a genuine person. And no, being introverted does not mean someone is quiet, lazy, or stuck up. Us introverts are just laid-back individals who are mostly home-bodies. We still have fun.

You have more time to yourself. Having time to yourself can be a rare to get around to. However, you’re able to have some alone time to yourself at least almost every day.

You can do anything you want to do. Being an introvert, you’re mostly by yourself at times. Which means you can do anything you feel. There is no one to judge, control, or even bother you.

You don’t have to worry about going out or impressing anyone. The only person you need to impress is yourself since you’re home alone anyways.

You have a small group of friends that you dearly love. A small number of friends means more to you rather than an abundant who might not be reliable.

You’re not always out partying. Partying is not your thing anyways. You would much rather be snuggled in bed reading a book or cuddling with your pets.

Netflix is the greatest thing ever for us introverts. Enough said.

You value the little things in life. You’re able to notice what really matters in life.

You listen more than you talk. Anybody is able to come to you and know that you will listen to them vent about anything. And nowadays, most people talk about themselves rather than listen.

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.
