I'd honestly rather bathe my cat.

Being in college is hard. In most classes, it takes a lot of effort as a student to achieve a decent and passing grade. I’m almost positive that I’ve been told by every single one of my professors not to put assignments off. I tell myself that this week will be different, but it never is. Here is a condensed list of all the things I’d rather do than read my textbook.

1. Watch cute cat videos.

I love all cute animals, but I could watch cat videos all day! They are such smart creatures, but they’re not always that bright. Everyone knows someone with a crazy cat.

2. Find better memes.

Caption this, okay go! My boyfriend is constantly sending me new funny memes. I try to stay a step ahead of him at all times.

3. Scroll through every single social media account I have.

I know I can’t be the only one who will stay on Facebook for hours just to put off studying. I can for real go from watching a touching dog/owner reunion to watching a slow loris eating a rice ball.

4. Play my online farm game.

I get a reward for every solid hour of playtime, and so far I’ve been awarded 82 of those. While I’m playing my farm game, the time is not displayed on my screen so I really have no idea how long I’ve been playing until I manually look to see what time it is.

5. Watch "American Idol" audition videos.

I enjoy watching the audition rounds. Some people think that they’re going to blow the judges out of the water, but it’s the ones who have no idea how talented they are that make the show worth it.

6. Search me on Google.

Has anyone else ever done this? I like to see what actually pertains to me, because most of it pertains to another Sarah Holliman who is an older blonde. Crazy that there are so many people out there with the same name.

7. Give my cat a bath.

Her face is the only caption I need here.

8. Take selfies with my cat.

Cricket deserves all the pets. She also loves to cover up my double chin for me.

9. Go walking with my dog.

Basil is the best boy who deserves all the walks. I don’t always want to leave my bed, but I try to make sure he gets exercise when the weather is nice.

10. Take selfies with my dog.

He may not act amused here, but he actually likes having his picture taken.

11. Take naps.

Cuddling with my best boy>>>anything school related. He makes it so hard to leave for class every morning.

12. Hang out with my friends.

I’d much rather have great conversation and fun times with my friends than study. I value my relationships more than my future at times, and that can be a problem.

13. Travel anywhere else and not come back.

I just want to see everything there is to see in the world. If I could take a few years off of everything and just travel, I would be so happy. Just look at this bench next to a freaking mountain. One day I could say that I sat on that very bench.

14. Clean out my closet.

Seriously, I don’t know why I do this, but for some reason, I would rather clean out my closet at 3 a.m. than study anything in my textbooks. I will find just about anything to do before I’ll actually sit down and study.

15. Fall off a cliff.

This is a joke, but still. You can’t spell “studying” without “dying.”

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

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.
