Attention K-Mart Shoppers the following is only for the 21±. The holidays can be really stressful times for some. From putting everything together, to wrapping Christmas presents, sometimes we just need a Christmas hack for staying chillier than the weather. Here's how to survive Christmas:

Have Breakfast With Alcohol

They say breakfast is the most important meal of the day so make it your bitch and cook whatever you want. Just be sure to add a side of your favorite booze.

Sit Down For A Second With Alcohol

Sometimes our minds can be dangerous and we need to de-clutter it. Why not do it with a beer or ten? I sometimes just stop what I'm doing and lay or sit down. I don't do anything, I just stare at the blank ceiling and once my mind surrenders and is calm, I continue on.

Give Yourself A Pep-Talk With Alcohol

Ban those negative thoughts and indulge yourself in good vibes. Look at yourself in the mirror and gaze into your own eyes. Use a phrase that you like and that motivates you.

Approach The Christmas Party With Alcohol

You won't be arriving to the party alone! You'll be accompanied by Jack Daniels and Captain Morgan. It's time to socialize and create memories and hope that you'll remember them in the morning.

The above is 47% satire. As always drink responsibly and in a safe environment. This time around can be stressful, but when you stop for a minute and regain your sanity you should be okay. Cha Cha on!

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.
