Majority of us know Demi Lovato and are well aware of her story.

Demi is not afraid of sharing her story with the world, her addiction, trip to rehab, and now sobriety.

On June 21st, 2018, Demi released a new single titled 'Sober.'

She released the single on all social media platforms saying, 'My truth…'

If you listen to the song, some of the lyrics read,

"don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know why
I do it every, every, every time
It's only when I'm lonely
Sometimes I just wanna cave
And I don't wanna fight
I try and I try and I try and I try and I try
Just hold me, I'm lonely"

Later in the song she goes on to talk to her mom, dad, and 'the ones who never left me.'

She states, 'we've been down this road before, I'm so sorry, I'm not sober anymore.'

Personally, I am a huge fan of Demi's and always have been, since her days on Disney Channel.

This single being released is heartbreaking, Demi just celebrated six years of sobriety this past January. She just went on tour for her new album. Honestly, this came a huge shock to the Lovatic fan base.

It is an eye-opener. I am thankful Demi feels comfortable enough to share her story with her fans and the world, but it is so sad that she relapses because we all thought she was doing so well.

This song being released made me think, it made me realize that no matter how big a person's smile is, how many pictures they post on Instagram, or how busy they are, they are or could be fighting battles within themselves. You never truly know what someone is going through.

Be cautious around others, check up on your friends, and love to the fullest each and every day.

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.

Oh college, we can’t live with you, but we can’t live without you. It’s a love/hate relationship, really. College is an experience that no one can ever prepare you for, and maybe that’s a good thing. You never really expect any of the things that college encompasses until you are there. College is fun, but don’t have too much fun. C’s get degrees, but they don’t get you into graduate school.

Blair Waldorf

The "Gossip Girl" series may be over, but Blair Waldorf's iconic character lives in our hearts forever. Blair was the queen of the Upper East Side, and a character you either loved or hated. She taught us everything we needed to know about life, love and of course, how to score a Chuck Bass. So the next time you feel a bit lost and are in need of guidance, look no further than to the Queen B herself.

As I spend my Sunday avoiding my homework and other adult responsibilities, I realized that I've watched this series over and over about a million times. Sadly, there isn't a Blair quote I don't know, so I came up with a list of a few favorites. You know you love her...xoxo

College is an endless cycle of crappy, sleepless nights, tedious, boring lectures, and hours of never-ending piles of homework.

Summer: a time (usually) free from school work and a time to relax with your friends and family. Maybe you go on a vacation or maybe you work all summer, but the time off really does help. When you're in college you become super close with so many people it's hard to think that you won't see many of them for three months. But, then you get that text saying, "Hey, clear your schedule next weekend, I'm coming up" and you begin to flip out. Here are the emotions you go through as your best friend makes her trip to your house.
