Love: A Country Apart

"You Hansel and Gretel me home..."

West Coast Girl

You are my west coast girl

And I am your east coast boy


You match my cannonball wit

With volleyed arrow retorts


With you I talk through movies I’ve never seen,

Our conversations will be my favourite scenes


When I’m lost you Hansel and Gretel me home

With your smell in my sweatshirts

and your bobby pins on my nightstand


You love me with commas

And not with asterisks


We save time by having ten different conversations

About nothing all at once


We’ll go anywhere not for the location

But for the escape


We use too many words for each other

And forget to save some for ourselves


We draft ourselves into each others wars

To escape the ones we have at home


You love me first with your thoughts

And then with your eyes


I love you first with my words

And then with my cooking


I give you stories

And you return with tales


You gift me ideas

And I return with poems


You are my summer girl

And I am your winter boy

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.
