Here's to one hell of a year.

A Letter To My Best Friend As School Ends
Ytimg

Dear best friend,

As our freshman year closes, I dread move out day: the day I part ways with my only best friend. Over the last few months, I have grown fairly attached to you. Sure, over the two semesters I've made a few friends here and there, but none as great as you.

From the day we found someone passed out naked in the bathroom, I knew we would be friends. Since that day, we have had a college experience in our own way. You put up with my boyfriend that no one gets along with, you rode my emotional roller coaster as I struggled to decide on a major and you rarely let me eat alone. For that, I cannot thank you enough. Without you, I wouldn't have made in through second semester (at least not with any passing grades). While I'm at it, thank you for babysitting my pets and plants, going on blind dates with boys from other schools, and not judging me when I went outside for every fire alarm in my underwear. Looking back on the year, I hope that I held up my end of the deal as well.

You are such a strong person and I envy your dedication to school, exercise and drinking the most beer at the party. You never turn down the chance to take photos, play beer pong or have fun. You're such a vibrant person and I love you with all my heart. Please, please, please, force me to study next semester and don't let me watch too much Netflix.

I hope you never hesitate to ask me for anything or maybe even demand a few things. I don't know what the next few years have in store for us but all I know is that together or apart, I wish you nothing but the best. If at any point you need to remember what this college town is like over summer, you know where I am. So here's to the parties, the guys, the late night ice cream runs, the countless hours studying and all the free s**t we got. I'll see you soon.

Xoxo,

The girl that won't quit texting you

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.

Because we made it, and because high school seniors deserve to know what they're getting themselves into

too tired to care

We've all been there. From move-in day to the first finals week in college, your first term is an adventure from start to finish. In honor of college decisions coming out recently, I want to recap some of the most common experiences college freshmen experience.

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!

The college years are a time for personal growth and success. Everyone comes in with expectations about how their life is supposed to turn out and envision the future. We all freak out when things don't go exactly as planned or when our expectations are unmet. As time goes on, we realize that the uncertainty of college is what makes it great. Here are some helpful reminders about life in college.
