Have you met my friend Jack?

He's tall man with a skeleton grin.

Used to be a scarecrow that was deadly thin.

Known for spreading screams all through the night.

Never once have I not seen that smile amongst the fright.

Gentle with children always he is,

Giving nothing more than a boo and a grin.

But, he was not always content.

Spending many nights in the graveyard as he was left to lament.

It took ruining a holiday for a world to discover

that his holiday is just as special as any other.

He is still the King of Pumpkins and fright,

With his dear wife Sally always at his side.

Zero always appears with his nose ever so bright,

as he takes over the world with terror and fright.

If you see my friend Jack,

tell him I said hi.

He's been on my nice list for years now

and he truly is a great guy.

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
