In This Article:

Michael Scott may not be in college, but he definitely does a great job of summing up what it's like.

1. When your professor asks why you skipped class.

Sometimes you just have to skip one class to finish homework for another. *shrugs*

2. When you sign up for a math class.

Gotta love pre-requisites, right?

3. When your professor calls on you and you have no idea what the answer is.

Maybe if I ramble enough, the professor will think I know what I'm talking about.

4. The three weeks between Thanksgiving and the end of the semester...

Sleep? Never heard of it.

5. When you've been staring at your homework for an hour and haven't made any progress.

You know how some days you can be distracted by almost anything? Same.

6. When your adviser is explaining what requirements you need to meet to graduate.

Do the major requirements really need to change every year?

7. When you read the rubric for your final project.

Please send help.

8. When you ignore your homework in favor of a Netflix marathon.

Watching "Chopped" > studying for Basic Nutrition.

9. When it's Finals Week.

Otherwise known as the week where procrastination is at an all-time high. Hint: his is the perfect time to organize your closet or alphabetize all of the novels you own.

10. When Christmas Break is finally here!

Nothing beats the feeling you get after walking out of your last final of the semester.

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: Your Spirit Animal

Who wouldn't wanna be Queen B?

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

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.
