We have all lost important people in our lives, even sometimes those we thought would never walk through that door. More often than not, people choose to resent those who left their lives, but seeing those situations in a different light gives much more satisfaction. To those who came into my life and left, thank you.

Thank you for walking into my life and making unforgettable memories with me, thank you for filling pages of a chapter in this book and thank you for serving a purpose at one point in my life when you were meant to be there. I can't bring myself to be anything but thankful for the fact that you were put in my life at a certain point for a reason. You all have helped mold me into the person I am today and all I can be is grateful for that.

Thank you for highlighting those who were meant to stay in my life and stick by my side and for leaving sooner rather than later before I had already built my life with you in it to only realize myself that you were just temporary. As you closed doors on me, I had yet to see that they would be opened again by the permanent and more worthy people who walked into my life after you walked out. As I am more than grateful for those who filled the void that you left, I'm even more grateful for you, the ones who came into my life and left, because you helped me learn who would be there by my side and who would serve a more important purpose in my life. So with that, thank you,for making room for bigger and better things and people to enter my life.

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.
