To My Mom, My Biggest Supporter
Lizzy Smith

Dear Mom,

First, I want to say thank you for loving me unconditionally. However, what you have done for me cannot be defined by the word "unconditional," Because what you have done is far beyond that.

When I was younger you were my hero and I was your biggest fan, that has not changed. Some kids say they want to be astronauts, doctors, explorers or police when they grow up. I have always wanted to be at least half the person you are, that is good enough for me. You are the most selfless person I have ever met. You lift me up even on your hardest days and inspire me every time we talk.

Speaking of our talks, those are my favorite memories. I love how I can tell you anything, even the most embarrassing things, and you can make me laugh about it. Our talks have quite literally saved my life. Without you, I wouldn't be the person I am today.

You are not just a great mom to me you are an amazing mom to my, sometimes difficult, little sister. I am so thankful for that, you have no idea. leaving her when I went to college was so hard, but I knew she was in the best hands ever.

I never thought I would be so thankful for my mom when I was ten, but now you are the most important person in my life and my bestie. I love being your daughter. I am constantly beaming with pride. I wouldn't trade a single thing about you for the world. Katie, my little sister, and I are the luckiest girls in the world to have you in our lives. When I have kids I hope I am half the mom you are!

I know this might be cheesy, but today I just wanted to give you some love! I love you, mom!

Always,

Lizzy

Now for some advice from me to the other lucky daughters of the world!

Tell your mom how much you love her, you have no idea how much she needs to hear that. Never forget that she brought you into this world and has kept you safe ever since, even when she wakes you up at 7:30 a.m. during winter break for no reason. You will never regret spending time with the people you love! Maye makes it about them sometimes and set aside your needs. she has done that for you your entire life. So, give her some love!

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.
