Sometimes waking up is hard. You might be so tired and think, "this is going to be the worst day." So while your day, in general, might suck a little, here are some tips to ensure you have a good (or at least decent) morning.

1. Get a good night's sleep

It's probably going to be really difficult to have a good day if you are running on 3 hours of sleep. So make sure you get however much sleep you need for yourself to survive and not be in the worst mood of your life.

2. Wash your face

Washing your face can really help wake you up. Also, your face will feel clean and everybody loves a clean face.

3. Drink water


I do drink coffee or tea almost every day of my life, but I always drink water first. If I don't drink water I will end up feeling super dehydrated not even an hour later. And it's just a healthy thing. If you search things like "How To Be Healthy" on Pinterest I am sure most people will say, "drink water!" So overall, it's just a healthy habit.

4. Eat breakfast


You should definitely always try to eat something for breakfast, even if it is just a granola bar. You will feel better and you won't feel like you are about to die of starvation the hour before lunch.

5. Make time to ensure you have everything you need for the day

Getting your books and whatever else you need for your classes together before you go is really important. You might think you are having a good morning until you get to your Spanish class and realize your backpack is actually just empty. So I would strongly advise giving yourself a couple minutes in the morning to get everything together.

6. Listen to music

I listen to music every morning. Doing something I enjoy during a time I really don't want to be awake is essential for me if I want to make it through the day. But listen to something a cool and upbeat, not something sad or angry. Unless that's what really gets you going for the day.

So if you want to have an okay morning, I would recommend doing some if not all of these things. You might actually feel like you can get through the day. And that's a feeling we could all use.

This is for the girls who have dealt with an emotionally, mentally, physically or verbally abusive father.

The ones who have grown up with a false lens of what love is and how relationships should be. The ones who have cried themselves to sleep wondering why he hurts you and your family so much. This is for all the girls who fall in love with broken boys that carry baggage bigger than their own, thinking it's their job to heal them because you watched your mother do the same.

Blair Waldorf Quote
"DESTINY IS FOR LOSERS. IT'S JUST A STUPID EXCUSE TO WAIT FOR THINGS TO HAPPEN INSTEAD OF MAKING THEM HAPPEN." - BLAIR WALDORF.

The world stopped in 2012 when our beloved show "Gossip Girl" ended. For six straight years, we would all tune in every Monday at 9:00 p.m. to see Upper Eastside royalty in the form of a Burberry headband clad Blair Waldorf. Blair was the big sister that we all loved to hate. How could we ever forget the epic showdowns between her and her frenemy Serena Van Der Woodsen? Or the time she banished Georgina Sparks to a Christian summer camp? How about that time when she and her girls took down Bart Bass? Blair is life. She's taught us how to dress, how to be ambitious, and most importantly, how to throw the perfect shade.

1. The awkward hellos on move-in day.

You're moving your stuff onto your floor, and you will encounter people you don't know yet in the hallway. They live on your floor, so you'll awkwardly smile and maybe introduce yourself. As you walk away, you will wonder if they will ever speak to you again, but don't worry, there's a good chance that you will make some great friends on your floor!

Recently I completed my freshman year of college, and boy, what an experience. It was a completely new learning environment and I can't believe how much I learned. In an effort to save time, here are the ten biggest lessons I learned from my first year of college.

1. Everyone is in the same boat

For me, the scariest part of starting school was that I was alone, that I wouldn't be able to make any friends and that I would stick out. Despite being told time and time again that everyone had these same feelings, it didn't really click until the first day when I saw all the other freshman looking as uneasy and uncomfortable as me. Therefore, I cannot stress this enough, everyone is feeling as nervous as you.
