Let's be honest, picking a date is so hard to do, especially during the summer. This is a list of potential date ideas, what you should do, and what you might benefit from each. I know dating is hard, but it doesn't have to be.

Go to the park.

Pack your favorite lunch into a basket. Don't forget a blanket! Walk to a quiet, shady spot (preferably under a tree). Maybe make out or something.

Go to the St. Louis Zoo.

I say St. Louis Zoo solely for the stingray exhibit. Get a margarita in a pineapple. Maybe hold hands but not for too long, because it is always hot. Sweaty palms are not hot.

Go to a baseball game.

No matter what team you're rooting for, try your best to get on the megatron. Maybe grab her boob for everyone to see.

Go to a carnival. 

Specifically the Rolla carnival. If you're into the country culture, it's hick heaven. Maybe take a dip of Copenhagen.

Go thrift shopping.

Pick outfits for each other to try on. Take some pictures. Maybe you'll fall in love with their fashion sense.

Go on a road trip.

Grab a map. Close your eyes. Put your finger anywhere on the map. That's where you're going. Never come back and just get hitched. Maybe it was meant to be.

Go to the beach. 

If you have money, go to the beach. Build a bonfire, just like on The Last Song. Let her feel like Miley Cyrus with Liam Hemsworth. Maybe you'll fall in love with the exact same way.

Go on a boat ride. 

If neither of you has a boat, rent one. Go to the beach or the lake. Stay until you can watch the sunset. Maybe marry her right then and there.

Go to a drive in a movie.

Doesn't matter the movie, just go. Hopefully it's 50 Shades Of Grey, because.... well you know. Maybe let it happen.

Go on a hike.

Get lost in the forest. Get lost in the mountains. Get lost with each other.

Set up an outdoor dinner.

Buy some candles. Go outside and set up a dinner. Dress code: sweatpants and an old t-shirt. Chill without any makeup on. That's when he thinks you'll be the prettiest. Don't take that wrong.

Get Pineapple Whip.

Just go. Don't even think about it. Just go.

Go stargazing.

You can never go wrong with this idea. This gives you a chance to talk about your life goals and dreams. You can find out if they're right for you. Maybe have a sleepover outside.

Go to a music festival. 

Go to any music festival. Pick her up and put her on your shoulders. She will fall in love with you. I promise.

Go to the Farmers Market.

Pick her flowers that were locally grown. Who knows, maybe you'll use those same flowers at your wedding.

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

College is an endless cycle of crappy, sleepless nights, tedious, boring lectures, and hours of never-ending piles of homework.

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.
