You should be in love with your best friend, and mine has four paws. Heres five reasons I'm celebrating my dog this Valentines Day.

1. They Are Always Excited To See Me

The only thing that can make a bad day good is hearing the fast pitter-patter of feet rushing to meet me at the door when I get in. It doesn't matter whether I've been gone for a day or just 10 minutes, the excitement is still there. Walked in from a different room? This calls for a celebration.

2. Their Snuggles Are Top Notch

I couldn't imagine spending the night without my dog sleeping by my side. Then by my head. Then at my feet. Then back at my side. Snuggles in the day time only last as long as I am willing to pet, but it's worth it.

3. They Love All My Food

No matter what I've made for dinner my pup looks at it like I've made the most delicious meal they've ever seen. You can just see it in their eyes that they would do anything for just one bite. Even though they don't get to eat my food, my dog is the perfect valentine because she loves me just for putting some food in a bowl.

4. They Protect Me At All Costs

Granted, the only things my dog ever tries to protect me from are things such as my apartment maintenance man, and squirrels we see on walks. But I know if we ever faced any real danger, they'd have my back.

5. They Listen With No Judgement

Sometimes I just need to vent after a long day, and they're there to wag a tail and sit near me when I do. It's like a therapist but instead of advice I just get unconditional 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.
