1. Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden

Admission: Free

This Museum is different from the other art museums you may go to. The art isn't just paintings and sculptures, its also a collection of animations, dioramas, music, and at one point you're literally walking on art. Definitely recommend you to put going to this museum on your to do list.

2. Renwick Gallery

Admission: Free

Absolutely adore this museum, the art on display is beautiful. Plus it's right next to the White House so if you want to be a little touristy then you can snap a pic there too.

3. Smithsonian National Museum of Natural History

Admission:Free

This Museum is a must when going to DC. I mean who doesn't want to see a giant elephant and a whole bunch of dinosaur fossils.

4. Smithsonian American Art Museum/ National Portrait Gallery

Admission: Free

Located in Chinatown this two in one Museum shows the history of America through art. Very interesting and worth the trip.

5. The Newseum

Admission: Adults - $22.95/Children - $13.95

The Newseum is an interactive way to learn about history! A piece of the Twin Towers and the Berlin Wall are both displayed in this museum. They also have a terrace with a gorgeous view of Pennsylvania Avenue.

6. Smithsonian Air and Space Museum

Admission: Free

This museum is very interesting and a very cool way to learn about the history of aviation and americans in space.

7. Smithsonian's National Zoo

Admission: Free

This technically isn't a zoo but it's still a fun experience when visiting DC.

8. National Gallery of Art

Admission: Free

This museum is huge. With two different buildings and a sculpture garden going here is a fun experience.

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: Your Spirit Animal

Who wouldn't wanna be Queen B?

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
