I have always enjoyed honor bands, ever since my first one in sixth grade. Since then, I have participated in at least 15 honor bands of various calibers. At the most recent one I realized there are certain thoughts I and other friends that enjoy these bands consistently have.

1. "I don't really care how this goes, we're missing class for this!"

2. "Wait, who else here plays my instrument?"

3. "Wow, that person sounds really bad."

4. "Wow, that person sounds really good."

5. "Ugh, that one guy is here? I can't stand him!"

6. "Hey, it's that one guy, he's so awesome!"

7. "Oh my gosh, my chair audition was horrible, I'm going to be last."

8. "How did I get this high of a chair placement?"

9. "Everyone else here is so good."

10. "Everyone else here is so bad."

11. "Okay, if I played that instrument I could totally play that solo SO much better."

12. "This music is so easy."

13. "Yikes, this music is hard!"

14. "Is the conductor going to rehearse that section again...?"

15. "FINALLY we can eat!"

16. "Only one more hour until we can go to the hotel."

17. "I really hope people show up to this concert."

18. "I can't wait to do this next year."

Blair Waldorf: Your Spirit Animal

Who wouldn't wanna be Queen B?

Fashion Institute of Design and Merchandising (FIDM)

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

University of Iowa

Winter break is over, we're all back at our respective colleges, and the first week of classes is underway. This is a little bit how that week tends to go.

The professor starts to go over something more than the syllabus

You get homework assigned on the first day of class

There are multiple group projects on the syllabus

You learn attendance is mandatory and will be taken every class

Professor starts chatting about their personal life and what inspired them to teach this class

Participation is mandatory and you have to play "icebreaker games"

Everybody is going out because its 'syllabus week' but you're laying in bed watching Grey's Anatomy

Looking outside anytime past 8 PM every night of this week

Nobody actually has any idea what's happening this entire week

Chips, apple or bread?

Ithaca College

Whether you specialized in ringing people up or preparing the food, if you worked at Panera Bread it holds a special place in your heart. Here are some signs that you worked at Panera in high school.

1. You own so many pairs of khaki pants you don’t even know what to do with them

Definitely the worst part about working at Panera was the uniform and having someone cute come in. Please don’t look at me in my hat.

Who wouldn't wanna be Queen B?

Probably every day.

"What the hell is going on?"

"I need to leave."

"I hate all these people."

"I think I need a nap."

"I hate Mondays, and Tuesdays, and every day I have class."

"Another paper? Damn, why don't I just write a book!"

"Don't call on me, don't call on me."

"I miss home."

"So much to do! 8 papers, 3 projects, 4 exams... Ugh, I don't even have time to eat, sleep, or breathe."

"I deserve a break!"

It's happening.

Excitement

Relief

Excitement (again)

Chips, apple or bread?

1. You own so many pairs of khaki pants you don’t even know what to do with them

2. Chips, apple or bread is probably your most repeated phrase

3. Taking bakery items with you out to parties was a must

4. Taking bakery items home to your parents was also a must (if you wanted to live)

5. Your friends expected you to give them free stuff

6. Being put on dishes made you question humanity

7. You saw everyone and their mother (especially their mothers)

8. Working the opening shift was actually the worst thing to ever happen to you

9. Being able to predict what people would order

10. Making coffee was your least favorite thing to do

11.Being put on the dining room was the absolute WORST

12. Secretly putting in your Panera card number when other people didn’t have them or want them.

13. You would still come in on days you weren’t working to take advantage of your discount
