We may not be princes, princesses, or wildlings. But we know students on our campus that can relate to these characters.

The HBO TV series, Game of Thrones that has been on the air since 2011 is full of many different, and crazy scenes, not to mention, some crazy interesting characters. In a way, despite the fact that this show is primarily about death, and the violence among kingdoms, the characters could relate to the average college student one would see around their campus. This is a list that analyzes specific characters and their resemblance to some students you might go to school with.

1) Cersei Lannister

An accurate representation of a college student. This is the student that drinks all of their problems away, and really does not give a crap for anyone but themselves. Oh you failed your exam? This person simply does not give a sh*t. This is also the student that sleeps with everyone, just to get their way. We all know that one person.

2) Joffrey Baratheon

I really hope that you don't know someone like this character, but if you do, every time you encounter them, you probably want to strangle them. This character is portrayed in the show as psycho, and definitely let the power go to his head. An accurate representation of a bad fraternity, or sorority president.

3) Jaime Lannister

This student had it all in high school. They were probably a four year varsity athlete, very popular, and threw all of the good parties. Now they are barely anything and lost that reputation when they went to college. Kind of like this character lost his... I won't spoil it.

4) Brienne of Tarth

Probably a basketball player, and probably is someone you don't want to mess with. Enough said.

5) Tyrion Lannister

Nobody really liked them in high school. So once they came to college they tried to make something of themselves. This is probably one of the smart as*es in your philosophy class. Girls like him just because he is the one that buys the alcohol.

6) Margaery Tyrell

This is the college student that plans to marry for money and wants to be the wife of someone who is potentially going to be the CEO of some big company. She's that chick that wears crop tops to class and does her hair and makeup every day.

7) Daenerys Targaryen

This is the person that everyone wants, but they can't have because she is too busy focusing on her future and studying. She doesn't go to parties because she is too busy filling out job applications and internship packets. They have strong views about slavery, and immigration, as well as the idea that women should have rights. Probably the feminist in your class that ALWAYS has to voice her opinion about something.

8) Sansa Stark

This person whines a lot and is a b*tch to everyone around her for no reason. Everyone talks crap about her at the parties because she is always giving people dirty looks, but not being social to others around her. Then she wonders why she doesn't really have friends.

9) Melisandre

This is the weirdo that you see around campus with bright hair, and stalks the football team. If you see her at a party, you are befuddled because who invited her? But then somehow manages to sleep with the most attractive people. How does that even happen?

10) Theon Greyjoy

This is your friend that is two-faced and pretends that they don't know you at parties. But in all reality, they are just a coward and would never say anything to your face if It came down to it.

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!

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.
