College As Told By 'Gossip Girl'
wikipedia.org

"Gossip Girl here! Your number one source into the scandalous lives of Manhattan's elite."

OK, so our lives are not as extravagant, luxurious nor hella scandalous as Blair and Serena. Well, I hope no one is faking a death, running away or having relationship struggles like Blair and Chuck. But there are times in our daily lives where the characters of "Gossip Girl" felt the same way. College, relationships, people and life can get the best of us. Serena, Blair, Chuck, Nate, Dan and your other favorite characters of "Gossip Girl" relate to your everyday emotions.

1) Boring Winter Weeks

Spring semester consists of the cold, miserable winter winds. Nothing exciting seems to be happening and you seem to have some of the most boring classes at night. Winter is just a dark hole of boring darkness. Just wait until the weekend (or not) and get a little crazy, forget about all your problems, and do things young people do.

2) Talking To Your Crush In Class

Swoon. Those gorgeous blue eyes turned to you and handed you the attendance sheet. Not much may be happening in your love life, but that small conversation you guys just had was magical. Or maybe you are in a great relationship, couldn't be happier and are just completely in love. We all have moments when we feel like there is no one else in the world other than the two of you.

3) Obnoxiously Loud People

You could be trying to study in the library, sleeping in your dorm or relaxing just about anywhere. There is going to be someone who is just beyond too loud for you to handle. I honestly do not think it is acceptable to be screaming at that semi-funny video.

4) Dressing for Comfort

8 a.m.? Friday class? Had a long eventful weekend? No matter the reason there are plenty of times when you are just going to roll out of bed, put on shoes and head to class. It is a struggle we will all have and no one should be judged for the grunge look.

5) Homework

It all piles up at once. Five papers, two tests, surprise quiz in class. It's like our professors plan to have everything due at the same time. All the homework is just the beginning of your stress, and it is always there.

6) Leaving Class For The Last Time

Nothing feels better than walking out of the threshold of your least favorite class with your least favorite classmates for the last time.

7) Pushing Through The Semester

Never seems to get easier as the semester goes on. The weeks are long and your break is just too far away. But if Dan can handle taking care of Georgina's baby, you can finish the semester.

8) Recruitment

No matter which side of recruitment you are on, you meet some really great people. But it can be sad when they get a bid from someone else.

9) Motivation

We want a lot of things: money, nice body, food. Instead of complaining we sometimes just need to go out there and get it. Which is easier said than done but...

10) The Next Morning

Ever woken up kind of dazed by the night you just had? Someone told you something that happened, you have no idea why you would ever call your ex, or look at your snap-story and just do not remember any of that. #college

11) Finding Your Best Friend Soulmate

You will always have some high school friends. But there is something about the people you meet in your sorority/fraternity, class, or dorm hall. You can find your other half to raise hell with through your crazy college years and your true best friends forever.

12) Failing

Whether it was a test or a class, words won't be able to comprehend how pissed and stress it could possibly make someone.

13) When Your Parents Ask How Classes Are Going

It is just not OK.

14) Dealing With F**kboys/F**kgirls

Literally better off not dealing with any of that crap.

15) Professors

They always seem like they are out to get you. But then they extend the deadline or give extra credit or just try to show some act of kindness.

16) Greek Life

Joining a sorority or fraternity brings one of the best bonds in life. You find people who are first friends, then become more than friends. "First you become a part of it, then it becomes a part of you."

17) Hometown Friends

When you go home after a long time and hang out with old friends it can be weird. Sometimes things just change for the better.

18) College

Just remember, through all the mistakes and stress, college is the best time of your life. Live it up. Have all the fun you can before you become a real adult. You know you love it, xoxo.

Power of Love Letters

I don't think I say it enough...

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.

Tamatoa created a liar filled with shiny things simply for the purpose of tricking fish to enter and become his food. He too experiences a lesson in how easy it is to be tricked by shiny things when Moana distracts him by covering herself in glowing algae so Maui can grab his hook.
