9 Things Every College Girl Heard From Their Grandma Over Winter Break
Disney

One of my favorite parts of the holiday season is getting to spend time with my family. It is always exciting when relatives come from out of town to celebrate Christmas and spend quality time with each other. From cooking delicious meals to simply walking around the mall together, there is no one I would rather spend time with than people I love the most: my family.

Inevitably, however, certain questions always come up when the family is together. After talking with my friends and other college students, there are some universal topics that constantly have their grandmas inquisitive. So, here are 9 things every college girl hears from their grandma over the holidays.

1. So, how's school?

It's good, Grandma. It's especially good now that I'm off for a month.


2. What's you major?

Journalism... Also same as last Christmas.


4. Do you have any plans for the summer?

Seems a little early for that questions since it's DECEMBER, but as a matter of fact, yes, I got an internship to be a reporter over the summer.

5. So.... Got your eyes on a man?

I mean, there have been a few cute guys but no, not really. I've been super focused on school and my career so I haven't had too much time for all that.

6. You know, back in my day if women didn't get married by 22 they were considered to be old maids.

Well that's pretty unfortunate, Grandma. It's a good thing I'm only 19, then.

7. Because I really can't wait for great-grandchildren.

I'll keep that in mind. That will be quite a party, someday.

8. But you don't need to worry about all that now.

But you just said..... Never mind, I'll take it.

9. It's so nice spending time with you!

7 Ways to Make Your Language More Transgender and Nonbinary Inclusive

With more people becoming aware of transgender and non-binary people, there have been a lot of questions circulating online and elsewhere about how to be more inclusive. Language is very important in making a space safer for trans and non-binary individuals. With language, there is an established and built-in measure of whether a place could be safe or unsafe. If the wrong language is used, the place is unsafe and shows a lack of education on trans and non-binary issues. With the right language and education, there can be more safe spaces for trans and non-binary people to exist without feeling the need to hide their identities or feel threatened for merely existing.

Blair Waldorf
Stop Hollywood

For those of you who have watched "Gossip Girl" before (and maybe more than just once), you know how important of a character Blair Waldorf is. Without Blair, the show doesn’t have any substance, scheme, or drama. Although the beginning of the show started off with Blair’s best friend Serena returning from boarding school, there just simply is no plot without Blair. With that being said, Blair’s presence in the show in much more complex than that. Her independent and go-getter ways have set an example for "Gossip Girl" fans since the show started and has not ended even years after the show ended. Blair never needed another person to define who she was and she certainly didn’t need a man to do that for her. When she envisioned a goal, she sought after it, and took it. This is why Blair’s demeanor encompasses strong women like her.
