Summer vacation for many is just a few weeks away. Some might stay home, and enjoy their time off . Others like my self go on vacation . Now the most unfortunate part is having to pack. You can never know the exact things you need. But, I do have a few ideas to make it a little easier. Here are five tips to make packing more fun.

1. You don't

Just don't . Look at that suitcase, and think of all the fun stuff you are going to do. Think of the stuff you can buy, and all the food you're going to eat. Then think about how the sooner you pack the sooner you can get there. That in-turn will help you pack faster.

2. You make a list

Put random stuff together. Put the things in random groups like stuff you have to bring . Make a list of clothes and separate for tooth past. Leave room for souvenirs. (Lets be honest, there will be a lot.)

3. Put on Netflix

Find something that you can listen to and not . For me , I try to put something on in the background for when I cean. It helps alot. Or put on music. Something that gets you in the mood for where you are going. The music or Nextflix will get you excited for where ever you go.

4.Get a snack

Eat something , then start. If you have a full stomach you will get less disrations you will have. It might help you remember something important that you forgot about.

5. Actually start packing.

The sooner you actualy start, the sooner you don't have to worry about other things.

There are my tips for packing.

Thanks for reading! :)

This is for the girls who have dealt with an emotionally, mentally, physically or verbally abusive father.

The ones who have grown up with a false lens of what love is and how relationships should be. The ones who have cried themselves to sleep wondering why he hurts you and your family so much. This is for all the girls who fall in love with broken boys that carry baggage bigger than their own, thinking it's their job to heal them because you watched your mother do the same.

Blair Waldorf Quote
"DESTINY IS FOR LOSERS. IT'S JUST A STUPID EXCUSE TO WAIT FOR THINGS TO HAPPEN INSTEAD OF MAKING THEM HAPPEN." - BLAIR WALDORF.

The world stopped in 2012 when our beloved show "Gossip Girl" ended. For six straight years, we would all tune in every Monday at 9:00 p.m. to see Upper Eastside royalty in the form of a Burberry headband clad Blair Waldorf. Blair was the big sister that we all loved to hate. How could we ever forget the epic showdowns between her and her frenemy Serena Van Der Woodsen? Or the time she banished Georgina Sparks to a Christian summer camp? How about that time when she and her girls took down Bart Bass? Blair is life. She's taught us how to dress, how to be ambitious, and most importantly, how to throw the perfect shade.

too tired to care

We've all been there. From move-in day to the first finals week in college, your first term is an adventure from start to finish. In honor of college decisions coming out recently, I want to recap some of the most common experiences college freshmen experience.

1. The awkward hellos on move-in day.

You're moving your stuff onto your floor, and you will encounter people you don't know yet in the hallway. They live on your floor, so you'll awkwardly smile and maybe introduce yourself. As you walk away, you will wonder if they will ever speak to you again, but don't worry, there's a good chance that you will make some great friends on your floor!

Recently I completed my freshman year of college, and boy, what an experience. It was a completely new learning environment and I can't believe how much I learned. In an effort to save time, here are the ten biggest lessons I learned from my first year of college.

1. Everyone is in the same boat

For me, the scariest part of starting school was that I was alone, that I wouldn't be able to make any friends and that I would stick out. Despite being told time and time again that everyone had these same feelings, it didn't really click until the first day when I saw all the other freshman looking as uneasy and uncomfortable as me. Therefore, I cannot stress this enough, everyone is feeling as nervous as you.
