My 5 Favorite Moments of the Ganon Boss Fight in 'Breath of the Wild'

After more than a year of playing the game on and off, I finally decided save Hyrule once and for all.

5. Getting All the Captured Memories

This main quest was a fun way of implementing our detectives skills all around Hyrule. After getting the 12 photos and finding their locations, Impa gives us a final one which reveals arguably the most emotional scene between Zelda and Link in the game, if not ever. And of course getting all 13 gives you a bonus cut screen after defeating Ganon.

4. Exploring Hyrule Castle

Running away from Guardians might make this final challenge tricky, and the maze-like map is no help either but it does offer Link many treasures like the Hylian Shield, the best one in the game. You also get to see what Ganon has done to the place, making your final objective that much more fun.

3. The Divine Beasts Being Put to Good Use

With all 4 beasts being given back to the champions, Ganon is on the weaker end of the fight as they take away half his health before the fight even starts. But don't feel bad for him, after all he has imprisoned Zelda for 100 years.

2. Squaring Off Against Ganon Himself

It is what we have been waiting to do the entire game, and in my case 65 hours as that is how much time I have put into this game! Once Ganon is released from his cucun, the Divine Beasts have unleashed their attacks, and the Master Sword is pulled out, it's game on! And although it only took me about 10 minutes to defeat him in both his forms (those shield deflects were not working in my favor) it was a heart racing experience I won't soon forget!

1. The Princess is Finally Freed

The guilt I felt for not getting to Ganon sooner (again, 65 hours of gameplay previous to the fight) weighed on me until I finally decided I was ready to complete my task, save Hyrule and free the princess. Seeing Zelda and her knight in shining armor (or in this case Champion's Tunic) reunite after 100 years did bring a tear to my eye. After all the journey of Breath of the Wild' was over. That is I thought it was until I saw I only had 18% completion. Oh well, back to shrine hunting I go!

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.
