As summer comes to an abrupt close, kids all over the world are met with these 10 thoughts.

1. "There's no way school starts in SEVEN DAYS!"

Summer just started like yesterday!

2. "But I've barely even started my summer reading!"

You mean to tell me that I'll have to spend half my time reading for my last week of the summer? Nope, there's no way I'm doing that.

3. "I guess I'll have to pick out a new backpack...that's kind of fun."

I can NOT keep using my old one. Glitter was so last year.

4. "I only have six more nights to sleep in? That sounds like a nightmare."

A kid needs their beauty sleep!

5. "If summer's almost over, that means that the warm weather is next to go."

As much as I love building snowmen and drinking hot chocolate, I'm not ready for the cold to come back!

6. "And don't even mention homework!"

How am I supposed to have time to do anything fun with homework to do, books to read, projects to finish, and tests to study for every single night!

7. "I guess I'll get to see my friends every day again, but recess doesn't last forever."

If school was all recess, I wouldn't have anything to complain about!

8. "What if I don't like my teachers... or what if my teachers don't like me?"

9. "What if my best friend isn't in my class this year?!"

At least having a class with my close friends will help the day go by a little faster. Without them, I don't know who I would pick for my project partners!

10. "Winter break better come fast..."

I can't wait for my next break to start!

Little did we know that now we would give anything to go back to the days where getting through the school day was all we had to worry about. You're only young once, enjoy it while it lasts!

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.

11 Moments Every College Freshman Has Experienced

Because we made it, and because high school seniors deserve to know what they're getting themselves into

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.

1. "If I'm wearing black tomorrow, it's because I'm mourning my grade."

2. "Do you want to try ordering Chinese takeout to take back to the stacks?"

3. "This final paper has me questioning if this professor just sucks or is Satan himself."

4. "Is that person over there OK? They've been sleeping for a while."

5. "Why are you online shopping?"

"I want to motivate myself to study."

"Since when do you have money to buy something anyway?"

6. "I wonder how much I could make as a stripper."

7. "There are no stress relief dogs, and I feel conned. My stress today is worse than yesterday."

8. "Rate My Professor screwed me over."

9. "I wore these clothes yesterday, and maybe even the day before, but it's fine."

10. "I wonder if I could sneak a beer in here."

11. "I just really want chocolate chip cookies."

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.
