When you hear the words "High school" or "College" your first thought probably isn't the weird stories that people bring home from those locations, are they? Well, here are a few stories that just might change your mind about this.

1. Possibly purple people.

"In high school a friend ran around in a purple morph suit for some day. I forgot why" - Dominic C., College/University

2. Fruity trees.

""A tree where people put bananas and sometimes apples and they just rot and become black and no one does anything about it" - Anonymous, College/University

"We have a 'banana' tree. Its a medium sized tree people put bananas in, and leave them there until they rot away. I also saw a apple in it once" - Anonymous, College/University

"Half eaten fruits being put in a tree" - Anonymous, College/University

(Seriously, where are these people going to school and where are they finding enough fruit to do this?)

3. Orbeez flying.

"The weirdest thing that I have seen on campus would be students throwing orbeez at each other." - Anonymous, College/University

4. And a T-Pose in a pear tree.

"The entire middle school choir t-posed during a song" - Anonymous, High school

5. Gorillas ARE dangerous.

"A man in a gorilla suit chasing people (yes, really)." - RetiredOrphan, High school

6. Socks - but only one.

"Socks. Just one of a pair. Everywhere." - Kait, College/University

7. Sometimes you just need some cuddles.

"People cuddling on the grass outside a dorm." - Anonymous, College/University

8. Are ghosts........REAL????

"Halloween I saw the ghost of Theta Chi walking around campus" - Anonymous, College/University

9. Now I'm curious, how DO you get a goose's attention?

"There were three guys. Two were video taping, and the other was kneeling in front of the pond (between the Studebakers and Noyer). In a (fake) New York accent, he said "Alright young bucks, now that you're ready to go out there and do God's work, ya gotta learn how to get a goose's attention"" - Hannah S, College/University

10. Pumpkin Head.

"lol bro wearing a pumpkin on his head" - Anonymous, College/University

11. Under-WHERE?

"I once found a stray pair of underwear underneath the sinks in the dorm bathrooms. Not sure how they got there, though...." - Anonymous, College/University

12. Toothbrush flush.

"There was a foldable, travel toothbrush flushed down one of the toilets in the dorm bathrooms. I don't want to know what kind of day that girl was having." - Kat C., College/University

13. Sink urination?

Anonymous

"Okay so a couple weird college update things. Last night, I found a pad stuck to the ground out side of some guys room. Today, my friend at NIU sent me a Snapchat that was a video of a sticky note on her door saying "do NOT urinate in the sink". Idk. College, man." - Anonymous, College/University

Is this a sign that we need to stop being kids and grow up, or is this just a sign that we need to start remembering the funny things that we see in order to write stories about them? The world may honestly never know.

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.
