In This Article:

We have all had those times where we really start to miss our ex flame, and wonder what they have been up to lately. Maybe it happens when you are back in your hometown and you start to reminisce on all of your memories, or after a long night of drinking where your drunk alter ego has your worst interest in mind.

Whatever the reason is, we all know its never a good idea to contact your ex. Ever. I mean whens the last time you drunk texted an ex and something good actually came out of it? Exactly.

So to spare the embarrassment, and the shame we feel after hitting up our ex, here is a list of all the things you can do instead of texting them.

1. Clean your room

I'm not just talking about a light cleaning either, Marie Kondo that shit sis, fully commit.

2. Take a walk

It's good for your body and your mind! Plus we all need some outdoor activities every once in a while.

3. Learn a new skill

Watch a webinar on a topic that interests you, read a "how to" article, or watch some youtube videos. I highly reccommend resorting to YouTube if you are trying to stay busy because we all know how easy it is to get sucked into that rabbit hole.

4. Go shopping

Everybody loves to shop, and what better way than to stay occupied than some retail therapy.

5. Cook a new meal

Cooking is actually really fun if you have the time to focus on a recipe and perfect it.

6. Workout

This is probably my personal favorite option, because you are bettering yourself while at the same time probably getting that revenge body Ms. Khloe Kardashian inspired us all to have.

Those are just a few options, but the bottom line is just don't do it. You'll thank me later when the urge to text them goes away and you move on with your life again with the peace of mind of knowing you didn't give them a reason to contact you. They are an ex for a reason and don't forget it!

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

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.
