I think everyone can agree that "Elf" is literally the best Christmas move out there.

Wait....no the best movie ever. It is wholesome and just amazing Buddy's journey through New York is really no different from our journey through college. We're all elfs leaving the North Pole and having no idea what real life is actually like.

Eat everything with syrup and sugar, check, think that everything is okay when it is not at all, check. See we're exactly the same.

Trying to walk anywhere on campus 

Sometimes you try to get hit by a car, because free tuition. But most of the time you do not want to actually be hit by a car.

Whenever you go home and your parents feed you for free

Free food is rare college. And a free, home cooked meal is even better

When you try to do anything on your own 

You think that you've totally got it, but you are oh so wrong.

When you see that one hot kid in your class

Do you know their name? No. But will you marry them one day? Yes.

Answering the question in class, pretending like you know what is going on 

You're not paying attention at all and the teacher calls on, so you have to same some random answer that seems right, but is so wrong.

Whenever a professor says "This will not be on the test" 

You know it's a lie, we all know that it is a lie.

Whenever there is a dog on campus 

Seeing a dog on campus is actually the best thing that can happen at a college campus

When you find out that YOU were the one with the lowest grade on the exam 

We've all been there, the teacher says the lowest is a 52 and you laugh at whoever did that bad. But then you get your exam back and it was you. You got the lowest score, you were laughing at yourself.

When you have to try to make a meal with the random food in your kitchen 

Sometimes it turns out great and other times you have spaghetti with chocolate syrup and sprinkles.

Trying to waste time when you're late to class so you don't have to actually show up 

You will do whatever you can to be even later to class so theres no point in going. Even taking 15 minutes to get on an escalator.

When you think someone is waving to you on campus but they are just waving to someone behind you

This is probably the worst thing that happens during college and even during life.

Trying to shower in the dorm showers

I don't understand how someone can design showers that are so awful and uncomfortable. I am not a tall person and I barely fit in there, how do people even taller do it.

When the professor says that it is on the syllabus instead of just answering the question. 

It is so simple to just answer a question, but no they have to act like angry elfs about it.

Whenever even the smallest inconvenience happens

Are we all super dramatic? Yes. But are we all crying instead? Yes.

Whenever you get even the smallest cut 

You got a paper cut? Well, time to break out all the band aids you have and call you mom.

Talking to your parents 

Yes, you just hung with them, but you're going to call them again. Because honestly I don't even know how to live without mine.

How college actually feels

Those revolving doors that just make you dizzy and you get stuck in them. Yup that is college

When you meet your college BFF

Finding someone who is just like you is one of the best things about college. Nothing beats your college bff.

This is for the girls who have dealt with an emotionally, mentally, physically or verbally abusive father.

The ones who have grown up with a false lens of what love is and how relationships should be. The ones who have cried themselves to sleep wondering why he hurts you and your family so much. This is for all the girls who fall in love with broken boys that carry baggage bigger than their own, thinking it's their job to heal them because you watched your mother do the same.

Blair Waldorf Quote
"DESTINY IS FOR LOSERS. IT'S JUST A STUPID EXCUSE TO WAIT FOR THINGS TO HAPPEN INSTEAD OF MAKING THEM HAPPEN." - BLAIR WALDORF.

The world stopped in 2012 when our beloved show "Gossip Girl" ended. For six straight years, we would all tune in every Monday at 9:00 p.m. to see Upper Eastside royalty in the form of a Burberry headband clad Blair Waldorf. Blair was the big sister that we all loved to hate. How could we ever forget the epic showdowns between her and her frenemy Serena Van Der Woodsen? Or the time she banished Georgina Sparks to a Christian summer camp? How about that time when she and her girls took down Bart Bass? Blair is life. She's taught us how to dress, how to be ambitious, and most importantly, how to throw the perfect shade.

too tired to care

We've all been there. From move-in day to the first finals week in college, your first term is an adventure from start to finish. In honor of college decisions coming out recently, I want to recap some of the most common experiences college freshmen experience.

1. The awkward hellos on move-in day.

You're moving your stuff onto your floor, and you will encounter people you don't know yet in the hallway. They live on your floor, so you'll awkwardly smile and maybe introduce yourself. As you walk away, you will wonder if they will ever speak to you again, but don't worry, there's a good chance that you will make some great friends on your floor!

We all freak out when things don't go exactly as planned or when our expectations are unmet. As time goes on, we realize that the uncertainty of college is what makes it great. Here are some helpful reminders about life in college.

Recently I completed my freshman year of college, and boy, what an experience. It was a completely new learning environment and I can't believe how much I learned. In an effort to save time, here are the ten biggest lessons I learned from my first year of college.

1. Everyone is in the same boat

For me, the scariest part of starting school was that I was alone, that I wouldn't be able to make any friends and that I would stick out. Despite being told time and time again that everyone had these same feelings, it didn't really click until the first day when I saw all the other freshman looking as uneasy and uncomfortable as me. Therefore, I cannot stress this enough, everyone is feeling as nervous as you.
