Whenever it's raining, we usually get down and out, but why not make it a time of productivity and fun?

Baking

Everybody loves a fresh batch of cookies, so why not try a new recipe?

Read a book

Is there a book you've been trying to read, but you just haven't had the time? Try starting it when it rains.

Netflix/Hulu

Finish binge watching that TV show, or start a new show that has been on your list for a while.

Clean

No one likes to clean, but when you're stuck inside on a rainy day, why not get it done then? Turn on some music and get to cleaning! Try a task that no one ever likes doing like cleaning out the fridge or dusting the blinds

Relax and take time for yourself

Take a nap or a bubble bath. Sit and enjoy the sound of the rain hitting your windows. Paint your nails, try that new face mask, or sit in your PJ's all day.

Plan ahead

Use this rainy day to plan for your next big adventure, project, or month. Plan out your work schedule, school schedule, homework schedule, or anything that you've been meaning to be more organized about.

Shopping

Who says you have to stay in when it's raining? Use this day to go shopping and treat yourself to a new outfit or some new makeup products. Everyone needs a shopping day every now and then.

Game night

Invite your friends over, or just have a game night with your family. Pull out all of the board games, card games, and any other games you have.

Plan your outfits for the next week

Take this time to pick out your outfits and save you some time in the mornings for the next week.

Movie marathon

Start a movie series, or just pick out lots of movies that you want to watch. Pop some popcorn and watch them all afternoon long.

Dance

Turn on your favorite music and dance like no one is watching. Have a dance party with friends or have one by yourself.

What do you do when it rains?

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.

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.
