Being Reunited With Your College Best Friends After The Holidays
The Odyssey

Winter break is over? Weren't we just crying and stressing over finals last week? The thought of going through all the tears and stress again makes me want to sleep even more. On the bright side, the week we've all been waiting for is finally here: being reunited with our college best friends. The annoying, clingy text messages can now stop because you'll be able to annoy each other in person. The spring semester is the season for pool parties, formals, fraternity weekenders, and music festivals-- all which you can do with your best friends. No more sitting in bed watching Snapchat stories of people doing crazy shenanigans. No more binge watching Grey's Anatomy and Gilmore Girls by yourself because now you'll be able to do those things with your friends. I think we're all ready for a fun and memorable semester with our girls.

The reunion: excitedly yelling when you see each other

If we thought being separated a week during Thanksgiving was a long time, well, Winter break was even longer. The feeling of being reunited is the most exciting and anticipating moment.

Catching up and not leaving a single detail out

All conversations start with, "How was your break? Tell me everything!" I think we all like to fast-forward through the talk about family vacations and get to the good stuff. Though your college best friends might not have grown up with you in the same hometown, they like to keep updated about the drama that happens there.

Wine nights

Heart to heart conversations? Drink wine. Bad day? Drink wine. Girls night? Drink wine. Don't have a special occasion to drink wine? Drink it anyways. Girls love wine. Trust me, we don't only buy 2 or 3 bottles. Each person in the group gets their own bottle. It's more fun that way.

Spring Break planning is already in the process

Havasu? Mexico? California? It all sounds like a fun time. As a college student, spring break is one of the best times to let loose and where you choose to spend will make or break. Let's be real, your best friends can make this week a fun time no matter where you all decide to go. Don't forget the occasional drama.

Endless photos

Every group of friends takes a reunion photo when they see each other. We take photos for every occasion. It's what we do. During syllabus week, we take photos every day. Believe me, our iPhones are filled with embarrassing and great photos of each other.

Pool party season. Need I say more?

What are the two most feared words in the English language? Pool Party. The week you get back to college is the week you and your girls go to the gym to get in shape. Time to show off the new bikinis you've all been dying to wear. Pool party season is one of the best parts of Spring semester, no doubt. Get ready for the nonstop Instagram posts. We're in for a fun time.

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.

Syllabus Week As Told By Kourtney Kardashian

Feeling Lost During Syllabus Week? You're Not Alone!

Winter break is over, we're all back at our respective colleges, and the first week of classes is underway. This is a little bit how that week tends to go.

The professor starts to go over something more than the syllabus

You get homework assigned on the first day of class

There are multiple group projects on the syllabus

You learn attendance is mandatory and will be taken every class

Professor starts chatting about their personal life and what inspired them to teach this class

Participation is mandatory and you have to play "icebreaker games"

Everybody is going out because its 'syllabus week' but you're laying in bed watching Grey's Anatomy

Looking outside anytime past 8 PM every night of this week

Nobody actually has any idea what's happening this entire week

Syllabus week is over and you realize you actually have to try now...or not

Now it's time to get back into the REAL swing of things. Second semester is really here and we all have to deal with it.

panera bread

Whether you specialized in ringing people up or preparing the food, if you worked at Panera Bread it holds a special place in your heart. Here are some signs that you worked at Panera in high school.

1. You own so many pairs of khaki pants you don’t even know what to do with them

Definitely the worst part about working at Panera was the uniform and having someone cute come in. Please don’t look at me in my hat.
