In Those Years You Had Me In Tears
Christine Saint

I never did admit this to you, maybe because I never knew-- until now--but-- I love you.

It may sound crazy, but it’s real and it’s how I feel. Yea, I know what we had is in the past and it was middle school shit so it was no big deal and wouldn’t last... That’s what they said and I don’t want to bring this up if you’re comfortably in bed w/ someone else.

But is that how you feel now?

If so, then I just want to let you know that in those years you helped me grow.

I’ve come to realize that in those years you were my best friend even when you had me in tears.

From laughing

From being up too late talking about our fears. And we did it together without knowing what we had was pure treasure.

In those years you had me in tears. From laughing too hard about nothing and everything that pierced our love struck ears.

In those years you had me in tears.

From being up too late talking about our fears, our future, how everything would play out and what it would do to us.

In those years you had me in tears,

about arguments that I would never hear from anyone,

Except for you.

I didn’t know what to do b/c you started calling me your boo and I was still stuck on whether I loved or hated you. In those years you had me in tears and even though I hated crying, (I still do) I found myself trying to stay with you, i found myself trying to stay in your life.

In those years you had me in tears.

I loved you,

and you couldn’t understand that THAT was my biggest fear.

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.
