Today was my first day of junior year. In addition to still being mistaken as a freshman, and watching a girl try and capture a squirrel, I added at least twelve things to my to-do list. One of the items on this list included writing an article for The Odyssey. After taking a week off, you would think I would have countless ideas about what to write. This was not the case, so here are twelve ways to procrastinate not only your school work but your weekly article submissions.

1. Take a nap.

Why not right? You had to know this was going to make the list.

2. Read your syllabi.

Even if it's for the tenth time.

3. Make even more to-do lists.

4. Make a snack.

Half an avocado with some chips? Don't mind if I do.

5. Meal prep for the week!

Might as well be productive right?

6. Watch a movie.

7. Start a new series on Netflix.

Might as well take a trip to see your friends.

9. Do some laundry.

New house, new me?

Procrastination is the best, can't wait for the rest of the semester!! Sorry, mom.

Disclaimer: I am the most motivated person I know, this is a one-time procrastination stop.

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

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.
