Sunday: arguably the worst day of the week, other than Monday. The day that almost everyone dreads. When you would do literally anything for it not to be Sunday. When you realize you have all of your work to do because you left it for Sunday. When you’re tired, but you know that when you wake up tomorrow, it will be Monday, which is just as bad. These feelings you have, they are the Sunday Scaries, and who better to explain them than the Kardashians.

1. Denial

No. It can’t be. How is it already Sunday? The week just flew by, and the weekend even faster. Thinking about how fast the weekend flew by kind of makes you want to cry a little. You refuse to accept the fact that today, the weekend is over and all the work you’ve been avoiding actually needs to get done. You would literally do anything for it not to be Sunday.


2. Acceptance, with a lot of overconfidence

After fully denying that it is Sunday, you realize there truly is nothing you can do. So, you decide to accept it and start your work. I mean, it’s still early in the day, you can definitely get your work done. Plus, maybe if you start now you can get it all done quickly and end the day early! Now you’re almost confident.

You can totally beat this Sunday. You’re going to get all the work done quickly and beat the Sunday Scaries. Honestly, you’ve never felt better, this may be the best Sunday yet.


3. Avoidance

So after “doing your work” for hours, you have gotten absolutely nothing done. You may have thought that you could get everything done, but the Sunday Scaries means A LOT of procrastination, like more than on a Thursday afternoon when you’re too excited to go out that night. You realize that no matter what you do, this perfect Sunday is not happening.

Instead of sitting down and stressing about all of the work that you have yet to do, and think about all of the time you have wasted pretending to do work, you decide to avoid it all. I mean, why do any of it? You might as well take a “quick” snack break, maybe watch some Netflix, I don’t know. Do anything but the work you have to do.


4. Sadness

So, you have effectively avoided literally every bit of work you have. It is now evening and you realize you were not only extremely inefficient but now you also have a ton of work to do and very little time. You could go to bed, forget about the day, and start fresh tomorrow. Except, tomorrow is Monday.

Basically, tomorrow is also going to be horrible no matter what you do. You are a complete mess and pretty sad. Sunday may be just about over, but Monday is seriously creeping up on you. Things couldn’t be going worse basically.


5. Relief, with a side of YOLO

There is literally nothing you can do right now. Sunday went horribly, Monday is definitely going to go horribly. But, the day is over and you can at least go to bed and move on. There is nothing you can do so you might as well enjoy the rest of your night. You probably got none of your work done. But, after all, technically you did beat the Sunday Scaries in the end, right?

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.
