Picture this. You've had a stressful week, and relaxing is the one thing you feel like you need. Coming back to your beloved room, all you ever want is to be at peace. At peace with yourself. At peace with your surroundings. At peace with your mind. At peace with your environment.

At peace.

At ease.

And stress-free.

You never quite know when these stressful, anxious, and gloomy days are going to hit you, so it's important to create a serene and blissful ambiance in your humble abode. One you look forward to coming home to each and every day. Having these thirteen things are not only obvious, but they create a homey, warm, and comforting feeling just when you need it. On days where everything is going your way, you just get to kick back and enjoy it. Take a deep breath. Your room will be your safe haven before long.

1. Blankets.

...Lots of blankets.

2. Fuzzy throw pillows.

Duh.

3. A carpet or a fuzzy rug.

Keep those toezies warm!

4. A comforter.

OK, obviously everyone has a comforter on their bed, but is it one that makes you want to cuddle up in it?! If you’re like me, you have a particular need for the texture and feel of your comforter.

5. A wax melter.

Not only does the subtle light from it soothe you but so does the smell.

6. White Christmas lights.

It’s all about the lighting.

7. Bluetooth speaker.

Play some piano covers of your favorite songs.

8. A coffee.

But really, anything in a mug. Could be a tea, could be a coffee, could be a hot chocolate. Pick your poison.

9. Window curtains.

Easy to cover up the cloudy days, but perfect for letting the sun shine on beautiful days.

10. A futon or couch.

Be accepting of sharing your ambiance with visitors because believe me, your friends will love the vibe.

11. Candles.

Like the wax melter, these give off a subtle relaxing light. The burning of the flame actually gives off a small but very relaxing sound too.

12. Simplexity.

Have a design, but create it to be simple and organized. It will help soothe you on stressful days.

13. A salt lamp.

Just by having this present in your room, your health will improve and you will feel comfort.

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.
