As a young woman, I have always thought that I needed to do things and go out with other people. While there are some things that are not very safe for women to do alone, like go out to the club or bar, there are plenty of things that are safe to do alone. As a matter of fact, there are many things you should do all alone as a young lady in your 20s. Doing these things alone isn't just fun, but you may be able to discover new things about yourself and doing these things may allow you to grow in this prime time.

1. Take yourself out to a nice dinner.

2. Go on a road trip.

3. Travel to a new state you've always wanted to visit. 

4. Go hiking.

5. Go to the movie theater.

6. Get an apartment and live alone.

7. Buy a pet.

8. Go to the beach.

9. Go on a cruise.

10. Take yourself on a shopping spree.

11. Go to a sip and spatter class.

12. Find a new hobby you like to do by yourself.

13. Get a new tattoo or piercing.

14.Get a professional massage.

15. Sit in a coffee shop.

Doing things by yourself, especially in your 20s, can be very refreshing. Sometimes, those things you experience by yourself will be some of your best memories.

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.
