Two Years Down, Two More To Go

Watching College Fly By in the Blink of An Eye
College In Colorado

Sophomore year is coming to a close in approximately 37 days or less. When my 18 year old self first arrived at college, I believed that I had all the time in the world. I figured that four years sure would maybe go fast, but at this point it is going faster than I would have ever believed. While I aim so very excited for the upcoming years ahead of me, it is sad to watch time fly this quickly.

College has been an absolute blessing. I have made some of my best friends here, they are basically my family. They are the best gift I could have asked for. College has shown me so much about myself and the great big world around me. There are so many options and so many things to do and see.

Attending my University has been yet another absolute blessing, it has offered so many interesting course and has rounded me into a better person. In just two years I’ve learned more than I did in four years of high school.

As I’m thrilled to begin my summer pretty soon, it’s scary to think that I have limited summers left, I have limited time left and then pretty soon it’s going to be all new again.

Junior year has a lot coming for me and I’m excited, but it’s safe to say I’ll miss being that underclassmen in her dorm room, change isn’t easy while the routine is comfortable.

I know that it’s important to enjoy my time left as a kid, but it’s hard to say that the good old days are coming to an end much faster than I would like. I love everything about college, I guess that’s why people call it the best days of their lives.

I’m currently having the time of my life, it’s the time to enjoy myself and have unlimited amounts of fun. While I don’t want this time to end, all good things must. These first two years of college though has made me learn more than words could tell. Its life lessons, academic lessons and little and big lessons, ill eventually take into the next chapter of my life.

I will use my nursing classes in my career, I will cherish the friendships I’ve made and what they have taught me about myself.

I cannot believe how fast the first two years have flown, and I can’t even think about how fast the next two will fly. However though, even though the years will pass, clocks will tick on, memories and polaroid’s last forever and this incredible time in college will never fade from my memories.

On the Upper East Side, Blair Waldorf is an icon. She's what every girl aspires to be. She's beautiful, confident, and can handle any obstacle that life throws at her. Sure, she may just be a television character. But for me, she's a role model and theres a lot that can be learned from Queen B.

We Heart It

Over the past decade, television has undergone a very crucial transition: the incorporation of female lead characters. Since it's a known fact that girls actually do run the world (Beyonce said so herself), it's time for the leading ladies of the small screen to get some credit. Without these characters, women would still be sitting in the background of our favorite shows. These women are not only trailblazers for female empowerment, but role models for women worldwide. With that, here are 15 of the smartest, sassiest ladies gracing our screens that remind us that women do, indeed, rule:

If you are like me, you have an interesting personality. Basically, you love to be sassy and snarky, gossip, and act like a total bitch (not really), but deep down, you are actually a very genuinely nice person. The idea of actually hurting someone truly makes you feel bad, and you probably have never actually hurt someone’s feelings because your kindness always shines through, even if you do not want it to. Not sure exactly what I would call this type of personality, but if you identify with it, here are some feelings you can undoubtedly relate to.
