21 Thoughts You Have When You Come Home From College

Gabby Sheets

Ever since I moved back home, three hours away from the university I have been attending for the past year, I have had a lot of... well, thoughts. It turns out that I have changed quite a bit. Now, this town that I never even thought twice about living in feels kinda weird. It feels like it is missing something, like an Insomnia Cookies storefront or my own personal thermostat that I am free to adjust to ICY COLD without any complaints from my parents.

College life is not the same as home life, and this is what I've been thinking as a result of this drastic difference...

1. Holy CRAP, I missed my dog!

2. Oh, the luxury of having a washer and dryer INSIDE your home.

3. I forgot what actual meals tasted like.

4. Wow, this town is like... really small.

5. Damn, I need a job.

6. Damn, no will hire me.

7. Oh my god, I am so bored because NO ONE WILL HIRE ME.

8. I forgot what it feels like to share a wall with my PARENTS.

9. Why don't residential towns have Insomnia Cookies???

10. I miss college.

11. I do NOT miss the college workload.

12. OH MY GOD WHY WILL NO ONE HIRE ME

13. I wish I still had control of the thermostat.

14. I hate unloading the dishwasher. I miss paper plates 24/7.

15. I miss my college friends.

16. It is SO GOOD to see my high school buddies though.

17. Oh, right... everyone I went to high school with lives here too... fantastic.

18. Woah, I do not miss high school.

19. The Wi-Fi works so much better when THOUSANDS of people aren't also using it.

20. I kinda just wanna sleep all summer... BUT NO.

21. It's good to be back :)

Moral of the story though is: PLEASE HIRE ME.

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: Your Spirit Animal

Who wouldn't wanna be Queen B?

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

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.
