College As Told By Squidward

Who lives in a pineapple under the sea? Spongebob Squarepants! But what about the dreary neighbor whom we didn't understand as children? Suddenly as college student, his narcissistic viewpoints, rude comments, and boring interests seem strikingly familiar. His reactions are priceless. His comments are blunt. He knows exactly what every college student is already thinking. So here's to all the times that Squidward Tentacles got college just right.

1. The daily reaction to the roommates down the hall. You know, the obnoxious ones.

Yes, rolling around on the floor down the hallway in your sleeping bag is exactly what you need to do to ace that biochemistry class. We all enjoy the entertainment.


2. Your morning, noon, and nightly routine.

Every day, you close your eyes for whatever sleep you can get. But we all know this is our actual thought process.


3. When you see couples on campus.

Enough said.


4. When you step outside your dorm and it's raining.

Let's be honest, we all despise rainy days. Especially when you must walk outside from class to class, when you try to do your hair, or when you forget your umbrella. It's OK. Go back to bed; we all wish we had.


5. Your thoughts after every exam.

Sometimes it is that serious.


6. Waking up to an email from your professor.

Nobody likes starting their day with assignments or reminders. We all hope the email says class is cancelled, but that is dreaming big.


7. That moment when you finish the assignment... at 4:00 A.M.

Now, hopefully a few hours of sleep before class... or maybe you should begin your other assignment due that day.


8. Roommates. Can't live with them. Can't live without them.

Some days, you wish it were that easy.


9. You have a love-love relationship with food.

You live off of McDonald's, the cafeteria, and the endless amounts of junk food in your dorm room.


10. When you finally make it home for summer break.

After a semester full of all-nighters, late nights out, junk food and endless reading and papers, we all need a little sleep... or 100 years of it. You choose.


11. When it all finally makes sense.

College may be difficult. It sucks sometimes, and most days you just would rather go back to bed. But the truth is, college is such an amazing experience that we take for granted. When you realize the benefits and privilege you have. Now that is worth a smile.

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!

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.
