When you were a kid, you probably looked forward to snow because it meant no school, an entire day outside playing with your friends, and hot cocoa at the end of a long, cold day. However, college students don't have the luxury of Mom's hot cocoa or a sled to go down the hill with, or for many of us, not even a car to get around. These are 5 thoughts that college students have when it's snowing on their campus.

1. How am I going to walk to class?

Giphy

Walking to class is difficult enough when it's a normal day, but walking to class in the snow is an entirely different story. This requires finding your snow gear that is tucked in the back of your closet and actually USING it...which is way too much work if you ask me.

2. Will we have a snow day?

Giphy

While the chances are usually low, college students could always use a snow day. They still wait for that phone call from school saying that it was cancelled- although it usually never comes.

3. Can we go play outside?

Giphy

College kids are still kids- and they still love to do some of the same things that they did as kids. Who says that you have to stop building snowmen or making snow angels just because you're old enough to live on your own?

4. Should I make some hot chocolate?

Giphy

Hot chocolate is the CLASSIC snow day drink, so why not enjoy a piping mug of hot chocolate while watching the snow fall outside?

5. Why can't this happen every day?

Giphy

Snow is something that everyone enjoys, and even though it might be a slight inconvenience, it's so beautiful to see snow falling everywhere. So enjoy it while it lasts!

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.
