The Night Before Finals

They're coming

The Night Before Finals

'Twas the night before finals

And all through the town

Everyone was stirring

Cause stuff was about to go down

The children studied anxiously

At their computers with care

With hopes that an A

Soon would be there

I in my skirt

And my friends in their ties

Had just come to grips

With our whole world of hurt

When all of a sudden there came such a chatter

I took to twitter to see what was the matter

Away to the news feed I took like a flash

I went to the search bar and I looked up the hash(tags)

As I squinted my eyes to look at the post

There it was the thing I needed the most

It was there 140 characters and all

A Christmas mircicle to some

Although it was small

EXAMS HAVE BEEN CANCELED

I read with glee

My prayer has been answered

Someone listened to me

It was like the joy of a child

Upon Christmas morn'

The happiest news

Which could be adorned

Then suddenly my dream smashed

The alarm went off

The anxiety rehashed

exams were on

Nothing can change

The dream was gone

Only hope remains

Seniors, the end is in sight,

So, Merry Christmas to all

And to all a good night.

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.

two women enjoying confetti

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.
