1. The constant mood from the beginning to end of finals time.

A thought on loop for the first three weeks of December for every college student.

2. When your morning alarm goes off and finals are still not over.

I wish it was all just a bad dream.

3. When you've forgotten about all the work you have to do until someone reminds you.

I'd like to stay in denial, thank you very much.

4. Yes, you definitely procrastinated all your work until the last minute.

Dear future self, I apologize in advance.

5. Me trying to relax and think happy thoughts.

It's important to take a step back and get some healthy perspective... even if you're thinking about the First Lady.

6. Stuck between two multiple choice answers on the exam like...

Well I've chosen more C's so far than A's so.....

7. Putting your game face on for the week ahead like...

This week, you gotta be your own hype man.

8. When the professor puts the one topic that you didn't study on the exam.

Remember when you told us we didn't "really" need to know that? Remember when we barely talked about it in class? Remember all the other topics I studied that you DIDN'T ask me about?!? SAME.

9. When they tell you there's no short answer.

A real reason to freak out in celebration.

10. Another one down!!

One step closer to getting out of here!

11. Turning in that not-so-hot paper at 3 AM...

Just giving all we have left to give at this point.

12. AND WHEN IT'S FINALLY ALL OVER!

Time to celebrate and dance it out!!!

13. After you've celebrated...time to hit the hay.

Imagining that post-finals sleep is what's keeping us going.

7 Ways to Make Your Language More Transgender and Nonbinary Inclusive

With more people becoming aware of transgender and non-binary people, there have been a lot of questions circulating online and elsewhere about how to be more inclusive. Language is very important in making a space safer for trans and non-binary individuals. With language, there is an established and built-in measure of whether a place could be safe or unsafe. If the wrong language is used, the place is unsafe and shows a lack of education on trans and non-binary issues. With the right language and education, there can be more safe spaces for trans and non-binary people to exist without feeling the need to hide their identities or feel threatened for merely existing.

Stop Hollywood

For those of you who have watched "Gossip Girl" before (and maybe more than just once), you know how important of a character Blair Waldorf is. Without Blair, the show doesn’t have any substance, scheme, or drama. Although the beginning of the show started off with Blair’s best friend Serena returning from boarding school, there just simply is no plot without Blair. With that being said, Blair’s presence in the show in much more complex than that. Her independent and go-getter ways have set an example for "Gossip Girl" fans since the show started and has not ended even years after the show ended. Blair never needed another person to define who she was and she certainly didn’t need a man to do that for her. When she envisioned a goal, she sought after it, and took it. This is why Blair’s demeanor encompasses strong women like her.
