Steps to take and avoid

Surviving Snow Storms
HollywoodLife

With winter storm Jonas tearing through the Northeast over this past weekend (cue your favorite Jonas Brothers tune here), people everywhere are beginning to prepare for the next storm. Looking for their salt, their shovels, their favorite gloves and boots, they begin to think, "How long will I be stuck at home?" "Do we have candles? What about batteries? Firewood?" they ponder. Then the real terror sets in:

"Do we have enough food?"

Everyone's guilty of it. If you live in a dorm, you've probably done it. If you're just beginning to live alone, chances are you'll do it. If you live at home, your mom's definitely done it and you just might have been coerced into doing it yourself. Whenever meteorologists predict inclement weather, people everywhere rush to their favorite grocery store to stock up on their treats of choice. Now, emergency preparedness is important. Homes should always be stocked ready with the right survival necessities should people find themselves in a dangerous situation. Sites like ready.gov and Emergency Preparedness from the CDC are great tools that should be utilized for making plans. Whatever you do to prepare for the winter storms, don't panic like this guy...

Two years ago comedian Vic DiBitetto took the internet by storm (see what I did there) when he posted this video to his YouTube page. Just look at this little snow angel with his bread and milk...

Honestly, props to Vic for being the only one who said what everyone else was thinking! The only thing that makes him happier than snow? Finally earning his 15 minutes of fame...

A stand-up comedian for 30 years, every time a blizzard blows through town DiBitetto's viral video resurfaces. Check out more about him on his Facebook or his website.

Whatever you do during the winter months, stay safe and have fun!

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.
