Whether you are a Trump supporter or not, it is important to remember that one man doesn’t make America great. It takes every single person in the United States to make the country able to grow and become stronger.

If you have a policy you don’t agree with, you’re most likely not alone. Research it, research everything about it and how it became the policy it is today. Reach out to someone who agrees with it and see if they can help you see it from a different perspective. If you still don’t agree, do something about it. Reach out to someone in your local government, state government or federal government to take the steps in making a change you think would make this country better. You have the right to do something.

If you are concerned about the safety issues in our country, do something about it. Make sure that you aren’t harming anyone or yourself in any way. Make sure your children and siblings aren’t currently harming or considering harming anyone or themselves. Everywhere you go keep an eye out for anything suspicious. If you believe someone or yourself is about to do something harmful, reach out for help. The president, the police, the military, the medics, the firefighters, all cannot keep an eye on every single person in the United States every single second of the day, so if we all tried helping each other out we would be helping our country as a whole even in the smallest of ways.

If you feel as though your vote means nothing, think again. Every time there is an election, please vote. Research candidates thoroughly, consider what views you have and if you are open to changing them, and what candidate truly represents what you want from your government. It’s easy to think that one vote doesn’t matter, but when a million people feel that their one vote doesn’t matter, that adds up to one million votes missing from an election and a leader that has the potential to make great changes for you and your community and country.

Help this country by taking action. Help yourself, help your family and friends and help your community, because if everyone did that it would have a snowball effect. Each of us have the power of change, and regardless of who is president it is up to us to make the United States a stronger nation.

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.
