What Our Friends Think We Do At Pepperdine

What exactly do our out of state friends think we do during a school day? I asked, they delivered.


7 a.m.: *peaceful alarm clock plays as I calmly sit up and stretch and smile at my perfect roommate*

7 a.m.: *rolls out of bed without snoozing alarm once* Ah morning. I love these days. The sun is shining, I have no life stressors, I have never felt pain.

7:15 a.m.: Since I go to Pepperdine, I wake up looking perfect everyday and have an unlimited closet. Let me just pick the most Kardashian-worthy outfit I own for school today.

7:30 a.m: I woke up so promptly for school this morning so I have time to go and grab a healthy breakfast from the 3 Michelin Star rated cafeteria. *grabs the bag I packed the night before, because I am just that good*

7:45 a.m.: *eats lobster for breakfast*

7:52 a.m.: *Shows up 8 minutes early to class to have leisurely chat with the professor just because I like them*

8-8:50 a.m.: I am so happy to be in this 8 a.m. Honestly it brightens my mornings so much. Let me make sure the professor knows that I am happy to be here by answering every question he asks as quickly and as long winded as possible.

9 a.m.: Because I go to Pepperdine I have way too much time on my hands. I only have one class a day because they would rather us get vitamin D than spend all of our time in class.

9:15 a.m.: Okay I finished all of my homework for the week. I'll just call up all of my friends who also conveniently aren't in class and we can all go to the beach.

10 a.m.: *loads up hippy van full of all of my best friends and begins filming video footage for the superiorly edited video I will make of our beach trip*

10:15 a.m. -4:30 p.m.: *spends literally all day at the beach, wears the right SPF of sunscreen and still gets a perfect tan, no one frowns the whole day*

5 p.m.: I have unlimited money so I'll just treat myself to a casual dinner at Nobu. Because that's what we do here.

5:45 p.m.: *eats a hundred dollars worth of sushi, feels no guilt*

6 p.m.: Well, it's been a great day, I better head over to see all the celebrities that just chill around here.

6:18 p.m.: *sees Taylor Swift and her entire squad, the Kardashians, Beyonce, and Bill Nye the Science Guy all casually sitting together, has a great conversation with them about their favorite beach spot, ends up getting invited to their next get together, politely declines because I "already have plans"*

8 p.m.: I wish I just didn't have so much to do all the time. Time just slips away, you know??

8:01 p.m.: *sulks at the fact that I can never do everything I want to in life*

8:20 p.m.: Ah it's getting late. I better start winding down.

8:25 p.m.: *gets in bed, doesn't bring phone because it's "bad for my health"*

8:32 p.m.: *reads a book for fun*

9 p.m.: Man, I am so exhausted. Such a good day.


In reality, we are just as busy as any other college, and although we love we love where we are, we worked hard to be here. And we are still working hard. But honestly, we do see celebs way more often than normal (shoutout to Harry Styles), we probably are more tan than you, and time really will slip away so we better enjoy this while we have it.

The first two weeks of classes have come to an end and they have been anything BUT easy. It seems like life has been serving up more bad than good and in all honesty, the only thing you want to do is crawl under your covers and hide from the rest of the world.

Although this seems like the best solution, it is also the easy way out. Take it from the girl who took basically a whole week off from her life because she just could not handle everything that was being thrown at her. This caused her to feel extremely lonely and even more stressed out for being behind in classes that JUST began.

11 Things We Learned From Brooke Davis

"What's more important? What we become or how we become it?"

Brooke Davis

"She was fiercely independent, Brooke Davis. Brilliant, and beautiful, and brave. In two years she had grown more than anyone I had ever known. Brooke Davis is going to change the world someday, and I'm not sure she even knows it." - Lucas Scott, An Unkindness of Ravens

Brooke Davis of the hit show One Tree Hill was the it girl - she had it all, or so we thought. She started out as a stuck-up, shallow, spoiled, head cheerleader who didn't have her life together. She slept around a lot and loved to party - sounds like your typical high school teenager right? Wrong. B. Davis had so much more to offer. Caring, loyal, and outspoken, she has taught us some valuable lessons throughout the 9 seasons that OTH was on the air:

We call those people, "Honorary Roommates" and here are 11 signs you have one in your life.

We all have a person, and when that person makes some new friends, we tend to forget all the great things that can come out of it. Never forget how special they are to you and why you are best friends.
