Yes, shockingly there are people out there that don't like the beach. I know this may come as the biggest surprise you have heard since Angelina and Brad Pitt getting a divorce, but these people exist. As a fair skinned, redhead there are obvious signs why the beach and I have as I would like to call it a "Love/Hate Relationship". To my bronze goddess skinned friends, this opposition may be hard for you to wrap your head around. Here are some reasons why people don't LOVE the beach.

1. SUNBURNS


If you are the person that can't leave the house without SPF 75 you definitely feel a major connection with this reasoning. Yes, the beach is great at the moment, but when you're taking a bath in aloe that night your relationship with the beach maybe as Ross from Friends so eloquently puts it "ON A BREAK!'

2. Sand... Everywhere


The moment that your toes meet the white smooth sand, it is the next best thing to walking on a cloud. Yet at the end of a sunny day, you feel like you're covered from head to toe in sand. It's in your bags, shoes, car, ears, nails, mouth, etc. Sand can be found everywhere for what seems like weeks. The worst feeling is when a gust of wind comes blowing through and you get a whole mouth load filled with, you guessed it, SAND.

3. Seagulls


In the movie Finding Nemo, the legendary scene that we all couldn't get enough of as kids was the "mine, Mine, MINE" part where the flock of seagulls are all coming. The annoying creatures are swarming all around you at the beach. Their squawks at high-frequency pitches do not make the experience more worthwhile either. As the Seagulls fly around all you can do is pray that one of them doesn't decide to take a poop right above your head.

4. Salt Water


The Ocean is so beautiful to admire from afar and take in all the beauty it has to offer. Swimming in salt water is a different story within itself. When you swim in the ocean if you open your eyes underwater, they will burn from the salt. Then when you exit the salty water, your whole body is covered from head to toe in crimpy salt.

5. Sea Animals


Jellyfish, sharks, crabs, and seaweed all sea animals that many people have a legitimately large fear or disdain of. This can make the non-beach people steer farther away from the beach then they already try to do. It can cause them to not want to walk along the beach or get in the water. This causes the whole day at the beach to be a "bust."

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.
